“The purpose of Blessed Be Your Names is to come to know in our hearts the names of God and to grasp their fullest meaning, not for theological knowledge, but for my daily walk with the Lord.
Each name of God reveals a specific characteristic of God's nature and character in His relationship with His people. God revealed these names to His people only when there was a need, in times of deepest crisis.
This book is for every wounded believer who needs reassurance and hope during difficult times. Scripture is absolutely clear that if we consecrate ourselves to the Lord, we will have to go through fire. And this is the true reason why God revealed His names to His people: to offer them encouragement, hope, and life.
I realized that I, too, wanted to understand the nature of my Lord: I wanted to know His heart towards us, His people, in our most distressed moments. Therefore, I chose to investigate in these pages the names of God that are most related to the times of trial and crisis in my life. In the same way, I believe that as you read these pages, you will find a special word of encouragement." David Wilkerson
