Jehovah Shammah (13 of 15)
Series: What a Wonderful Name
Ezekiel 48: 35
Dr. Ernest L. Easley
Mealtime was always a magic time for the Easley's, even when I was growing up. What made it magical was that it brought us all together. We may have all been going in different directions all day long, but at the end of the day, we gathered around the dinner table to eat and hear about each other's day and catch up.

Well as we continue our study in the names of God under the heading ''WHAT A WONDERFUL NAME,'' we're heading straight to the desert! I mean, there's still more names to feed on, but I'm anxious to get to the desert.
You say, ''Ernest, what are you talking about heading straight to the desert?'' Well, tonight we're leaping over a few names of God to the final name recorded in the Old Testament. The more I read and studied this last name, the more excited I became; you know, like halfway ...
