God Knows Your Name
God Knows Your Name
God knows your name. You are not a “thing” or just a “number” to God. You are important to God as an individual.
…I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. Isa 43:1 KJV
The Lord knows you
...The Lord knoweth them that are His…2 Tim 2:19 KJV
The hairs on your head are numbered
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Mt 10:30 KJV
This shows me that God knows about the details of your life.
You are more important to God than birds
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap,nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are you not much better than they? Matt 6:26 KJV
I think the question at the end is rhetorical, that is of course you are, and yet God takes care of them. How much more is He taking care of you?
God cares about you as an individual
It is clear from scripture that God cares about and deals with groups, such as nations and families but it is just as clear that God cares about individuals. He cares about your individual salvation, your individual character, your individual walk or relationship with Him, your individual renewing of your mind and all sorts of things that are at the individual level. From scripture it seems like there is nothing about you or your life that God does not care about.
Because God does seem to focus on the individual level with us quite a bit it seems logical to me that you are more important to Him on an individual level than your family, than your marriage, than your ministry, than your job, than your church or than any group or organization you might belong to. He cares about you.
After all, He knows your name.
