God Knows Your Name

There is deep comfort in knowing that the God who created the heavens and the earth also knows your name. You are not a faceless figure in a vast crowd but a beloved child seen and cherished by the Father. To know your name is to know your story, your struggles, and your dreams. God calls you personally, reminding you that you belong to Him.

When we feel overlooked by the world or forgotten by people, the truth of God’s intimate knowledge gives us strength. He calls us by name into His promises, into His presence, and into His purpose. His love is not general but specific, reaching into the details of our lives.

Scripture declares, “Don’t be afraid, I’ve redeemed you. I’ve called your name. You’re mine” (Isaiah 43:1 MSG). To be named by God is to be claimed by God, and nothing can take that identity away.
