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!
