I AM Yahweh (Lord)

Exodus 3:12-15; Deuteronomy 4:35

This is my name (Yahweh) forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations (Exodus 3:15).   When God called himself Yahweh (LORD) he wasn’t saying it in a general or generic term lord. No, he was declaring I am LORD (all caps).  So every time we hear the word Yahweh, or every time you see LORD in the English Bible, you should think: this is a proper name (like Peter or John) built out of the word for “I am” and reminding us each time that God absolutely is.  God absolutely is LORD, in every sense of the word!
