The Names of God

Jehovah Hashopet - The Lord the Judge

Judgement is not an element of God’s character. It is a response to the choices of His creation, and is always gracious, merciful, and loving towards us.

For the Lord is our judge,
The Lord is our lawgiver,
The Lord is our king;
He will save us—
- Isaiah 33:22 NASB 1995

The Lord is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
- Psalm 145:8 NLT

For one day we will all be openly revealed before Christ on his throne so that each of us will be duly recompensed for our actions done in life, whether good or worthless.
- 2 Corinthians 5:10 TPT

We also read from Psalm 50:6, and Psalm 76:8-9.

What initially comes up when you think of the Lord as Judge? Is it punishment or reward?

Blessing you to see and know Him as a holy God, receiving the grace to repent and turn back to the One who loves you more than anything in the world.
