Yod Hey Vav Hey

If you didn't understand the title of this post, you're not alone. But it's been right in front of you since you began to read the Bible. Have you ever been reading along in God's word and suddenly saw the word LORD in all caps? You probably thought that was wierd. Maybe you didn't think about it at all. Maybe you've never seen it cause you don't read the Bible! Haha! Jk! Can't be judgeing!

The word LORD is code for the name of God. If you look at the hebrew for it, Lord is the "Sacred Name". It was not allowed to be spoken nor written in the time before Jesus' death. Those who wrote it had to be cleansed, those who spoke it had to be killed. The name was holy. The name was and is power.

LORD is code for Yod Hey Vav Hey. Seen as a pictograph, the Hebrew word comes out Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand! It's not only showing the power of God, but the prophesy of Jesus' death. This name was seen in the scriptures as early as Genesis 2:4. How amazing is this?! Do you think that Moses knew what this name prophesied as he wrote down the name for the very first time?

There's even more to this wonderful name! At this name, the Sacred Name, all of Hell trembles. Because Yod Hey Vav Hey is a name that is ONLY given to God and his children. My first name is my identity, what people generally call me by. But my last name is my lineage. I am now part of the family tree of Yod Hey Vav Hey, and all the authority in that name is mine when I speak it and believe it! I am a child of Yod Hey Vav Hey! If oyu have asked Jesus into your heart then you have the last name of Yod Hey Vav Hey too!

Go out and conquer in the name of Yod Hey Vav Hey! Don't let the devil take your joy, your peace, your dominion over him and his power! Be a child of God!
