The Names of God, Number 1  Elohim: translated as “God.”

This first is used in Genesis 1:1  “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Each name of God has a meaning and Elohim means "the strong and faithful One who swears and is able to keep His word."

Strength:

He shows His power in creation: breathing the stars, gathering them into galaxies,  putting them each in their place, naming each one. He stretched out the canopy of the universe; hanging the earth on nothing; giving it the perfect spin and orbit. His power is infinite, all pervasive, unconquerable and unending.

Faithfulness:

Elohim shows His faithfulness in promising and then providing Salvation. He planned it before creation, worked it out through history with Abraham, Joseph, Daniel, Isaiah, Joseph and Mary and others, bringing His Son into the world at the right time. Elohim is utterly faithful, always keeping His promise so we can trust Him, He always has more than enough power to bring His promises to pass.

Revelation:

Elohim is also the first hint of the trinity in the Bible. In the Hebrew language there are two plural forms for nouns. One is for two objects, the other for three or more. Elohim is plural for three or more, pointing to the trinity. And this is quickly underscored when Elohim says, “Let us make man in OUR image,” not “in my image.”

He is worthy of worship, of obedience, of surrender. Elohim, the triune God, Creator of all, Provider of salvation for all His enemies! Let us surrender and rest in His being Elohim.
