Today's show is on the importance of "New Names". To open the show we talk about how Taylor Swift has so influenced the Kansas City Chiefs that they are changing their name to Kansas City Swifites. Listen now and find out more.

We also talked about exploring Genesis 17, we delved into the significance of names and the divine revelations given to Abraham, Sarah, and Isaac. The name "God Almighty," or "El Shaddai," signifies God's omnipotence and sufficiency to fulfill His promises. Despite Abraham's initial disbelief, God's revelation of this name underscores His ability to accomplish the seemingly impossible. Abraham is called to walk blamelessly before God, signifying a wholehearted devotion and integrity.

The renaming of Abram to Abraham and Sarai to Sarah symbolizes a profound transformation and the fulfillment of God's promise to make Abraham the father of many nations. Through faith, Abraham and Sarah became examples of trust in God's plan, despite their shortcomings. The covenant of circumcision symbolized separation and obedience to God's commands, reflecting a deeper spiritual relationship rather than mere ritual.

Sarah's role as a princess and mother of kings highlights the importance of motherhood and the sanctity of life. Despite challenges, God's plan prevailed through Isaac, representing the spiritual birth through the Spirit, while Ishmael symbolized the past and fleshly desires. Surrendering the past to God's plan ensures a future filled with His blessings and joy.

Ultimately, Genesis 17 illustrates the faithfulness of God in fulfilling His promises and the importance of trusting His plan, even when it seems improbable. Through obedience and faith, Abraham and Sarah became vessels through which God's divine plan unfolded, paving the way for the fulfillment of His covenant through Christ and all believers.
