Scripture encourages us to call on the name of the Lord (Ps. 116:13) and proclaim His name (Ps. 105:1). Through His name we find power (Jer. 10:6) so it only makes sense that we get to know that name, do all we do in His name, and remind others to trust in it as well.
Books to Help Us Get to Know the Name of the Lord Better
Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you. (Ps. 9:10)
