God is so wonderful, and the names of God in scripture help us finite creatures know more about our infinite God.
When I was talking with an intertribal church some years ago about the name of God as translated into their language, I realized that I did not know all the names of God revealed in scripture that I later heard grade school kids recite in front of their church. Eventually I found a helpful site (allaboutGod), and made individual cards to try to memorize them and get them into my head a little better. I would like to post them here, in a one name/one thread fashion. Those who know Hebrew will probably have other spellings or treatments, and that would be welcome to see, but mainly the specific name and applicable verses are what I am going for here.

God of my Strength
Psalm 43:2 - For thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
