4) And we have such trust through ChristToward God.
5) Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God,
6) who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
17) Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18) But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

PRAYING THE NAMES OF GOD:
Week #19: EL CHAY - LIVING GOD
Key Scripture’s : 2 Kings 19:15-16

Understanding the Name:
Scripture constantly warns against the worship of false gods. The first of the Ten Commandments is itself a proscription against idol worship. The title EL CHAY (EL CHAY), the living God, emphasizes God’s role as Creator of all that is, in contrast with idols made of metal, wood, or stone, which are merely the creations of human hands. Jeremiah paints a vivid picture, saying, “The customs of the people are worthless; They cut a tree out of the forest, and a craftsman shapes it with his chisel. They adorn it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so it will not totter. Like a scarecrow in a melon patch, their idols cannot speak; they must be carried because they cannot walk. Do not fear them; they can do no harm nor can they do any good” (Jeremiah 10:3-5 NIV) Imagine praying to a deaf and dumb god! That’s exactly the case when someone worships any other God than El Chay!
