Here is something for you to think about. The Bible speaks of name changes. Saul was changed to Paul. Simon to Cephas. Levi to Matthew,
Jacob to Israel. What is important is that names mean something. David
means beloved, Noah means rest. Paul means little, John means gift from
God, Daniel means judge of God. The Bible also tell us that a white stone will be given to you with a new name written, which no man will know except he that received it.
Hmmm.... Now we would all like to think of what our new name
would be pleasing and God honoring. But there is 3 things to consider:
a) What you would want and like to be called. b) What will others call
you. c) What will God call you. You see truthfully you and God are the
only ones that really know what your new name would be. And then we have
a habit of lying to ourselves, but God will not. My questions to you
would be, What new name would you like to be called? Then are you really
living up to that new name? Hmmmm...
"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the
churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna,
and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written,
which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it." Revelation 2:17
Remember Always, "God does all things well."
