Elohim Yakol: The God Who is Able

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

Recently we've talked about the Hebrew the word "yakol," which means... to overcome, prevail, be victorious, or well able.

"Yakol," is used when Jacob overcomes while wrestling with God. And it's used when Caleb says that the people are well able to overcome the giants in the promised land. 

Yakol is also a name for God that's used in Daniel 3:17 when the boys were going to be thrown into the fiery furnace. In this story they refer to God as Elohim Yakol, which means the God who is able. 

Daniel 3;17 says, "If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the (Elohim Yakol)God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand.

Today's communion is a time of gratitude for Elohim Yakol.

I am praying for you.
