The Lord of hosts is His name;
And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
He is called the God of the whole earth.
Isaiah 54:5 (NKJV)

Names of the Lord Our Husband

Isaiah 54:5 shows us several names that are specific to the Lord as our Husband.

  • Our Maker is our Husband.
  • Our Husband’s name is the Lord of Hosts.
  • Our Redeemer is our Husband.
  • Our Husband is the Holy One of Israel.
  • Our Husband is called the God of the whole earth.

The Lord Our Redeemer

The name of the Lord our Redeemer along with His names the Lord of Hosts, the Holy One of Israel and Him as our Maker, are found together repeatedly in the Old Testament. Isaiah 54:5 connects these names of the Lord with the Lord our Husband. The title of the Lord the Redeemer appears in Scripture less frequently than the Lord of Hosts and the Holy One of Israel. However, the entire Word of the Lord reveals the nature and character of the Lord our Redeemer. The verses below for repentance and replacement refer specifically to the Lord as our Redeemer. Tying together the connection of the Lord our Redeemer as the Lord our Husband, the repentance and replacement focus on this aspect of drawing closer in our relationship with our Bridegroom as our Redeemer.

The Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel, goes to great lengths to show us the blessings He desires to give us as the Bride of Christ. Our passage on the Holy One of Israel comes from Isaiah 30:9-26. While going through the repentance verses, please take time to reflect on the pain the Lord our Husband feels when we sin against Him in these following areas. Likewise, doing the replacement verses, please focus on how much it pleases Him to be able to give blessings to His Bride.

  • What is the root of why you do this?
  • What healing needs to be accomplished in your relationship with Him in order to no longer continue this behavior?

The Lord Our Husband, the Holy One of Israel

As the bride of Christ, we must focus our attention to the Lord our Husband to help us. It can be easy to find ourselves repeating the patterns of the Israelites of returning to the familiar life of slavery in Egypt. Only in this day and age, Egypt is representative of many things, including abusive or toxic relationships.Leaving the known and familiar aspects of Egypt to move into the unknowns of the Promised Land necessitates understanding of and dependence on the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel. For it is He who is your help and leads you in the way you should go.

Repentance

As the bride of Christ, please repent for the following ways you or your past generations have participated, either knowingly or unknowingly, in the following:

  • depending on those who have defeated you (Is 10:20)
  • going to Egypt for help, or seeking help from a former or current adversary and/or oppressor (Is 31:1)
  • relying on horses, or relying on your own resources (Is 31:1)
  • trusting in numerous chariots, or trusting in your ability to stand up for yourself (Is 31:1)
  • trusting in horsemen because they are strong, or trusting in yourself or others to support you (Is 31:1)
  • not looking to the Holy One of Israel, the Lord your Husband (Is 31:1)
  • not seeking the Lord (Is 31:1)
  • looking to others to lead us (Is 48:17)

Replacement
As the bride of Christ, in order to deepen your relationship to the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel, please replace with and focus on the following:

  • never again depending on those who have defeated you (Is 10:20)
  • depending on the Holy One of Israel, the Lord our Husband, in truth (Is 10:20)
  • shout because the Holy One of Israel, our Husband, is great in the midst of you (Is 12:6)
  • the Lord, Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, will help you (Is 41:14)
  • looking to your Husband, Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel who teaches you to profit and leads you by the way we should go (Is 48:17)

Stewardship/Reflection

I invite you to take time with the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel, and ponder these items for growth in your daily walk with Him.

Please ask the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel:

  • Are there aspects of your life that you tend to return to that would be equivalent to the Hebrews desire to return to Egypt?
  • Are there people you depend on that have defeated you?
  • If so, what is the lie, belief, wound, etc. that is at the root of wanting to return to someone and trust them for help who holds you in bondage?
  • What is the truth from the Lord and from Scripture that comes against the lie, belief, wound, etc. that causes you to return to someone and trust them for help who hold you in bondage?
  • Who does the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel, want to be for you in order for you to be healed in this area in your life?
  • Are there things you need to remove from your life that hinder your dependence on the Holy One of Israel to lead you by the way you are to go?
  • What things do you need to put into place to facilitate deeper intimacy with the Lord your Husband in order to bring healing to this area?

As we continue praying through the area of culture in our Nation of the family, we shift our focus from the Lord our Father to our relationship with Him as the Lord as our Husband. There are several aspects to the nature of the Lord our Husband. He is our Maker; He is the Lord of Hosts; He is our Redeemer; He is the Holy One of Israel; and He is the God of the whole earth.

The Holy One of Israel is Husband and sovereign ruler over the nation of Israel. Much can be learned in Scripture how we are to relate to the Lord our Husband that would impact the culture of our families and Nation. In addition, when we live in right relationship with the Holy One of Israel, we then live in agreement with the covenant of peace the Lord made to the nation of Israel and the Jews.

The Lord of hosts is His name;

Isaiah 54:5 (NKJV)

 

Names of the Lord Our Husband

Isaiah 54:5 shows us several names that are specific to the Lord as our Husband.

  • Our Maker is our Husband.
  • Our Husband’s name is the Lord of Hosts.
  • Our Redeemer is our Husband.
  • Our Husband is the Holy One of Israel.
  • Our Husband is called the God of the whole earth.

The Lord Our Husband, the Holy One of Israel

Therefore, as the fire devours the stubble,
And the flame consumes the chaff,
So their root will be as rottenness,
And their blossom will ascend like dust;
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Isaiah 5:24 (NKJV)

The Hebrew word for “despise” means, “to spurn, contemn, despise and abhor.” Since I am not familiar with the meaning of contemn, I looked it up in Webster’s 1828 Dictionary. Contemn means, “to despise; to consider and treat as mean and despicable; to scorn.” The Hebrew meaning of “word” refers to the word of God and the Torah. It comes from a word that includes meanings of “word, saying, promise and command.” The word of God and the Torah are words of the Lord that include commandments and instructions, as well as promises. The Word of the Lord gives detailed instructions of how we are to live in covenant relationship with Him. It also speaks of the promises that come with living in covenant with the Holy One of Israel. He takes pleasure in living in covenant relationship with us. When we live according to His commandments, we are able to receive the promises and provisions of His covenant.

Scripture shows us that despising the word of our Husband, the Holy One of Israel, results in negative consequences. Despising the Word of our Husband, the Holy One of Israel, is actually a form of self-hatred and self-sabotage. Anytime we do something that harms us, we sabotage ourselves. The Holy One of Israel loves us deeply and has given us everything we need in order to live from the blessings and provisions of the covenant He makes with us as our Husband.

I invite you to repent of any times you may have knowingly or unknowingly participated in the following actions against the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel. You may also choose to include repenting of generational sins in these areas.

Repentance points:

  • For despising, spurning, contemning, and abhorring the Word of the Holy One of Israel, our Husband
  • For participating in self-sabotage by not heeding the instructions of how to live in the fullness of provision and the blessings of the covenant of the Lord our Husband

Replacement:

  • The Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel is also our Redeemer. Please allow Him to redeem you from any consequences of despising His Word that has come through you or your generations. He takes delight in living in covenant relationship with you. In addition, He can and wants to heal any areas in your life that are the roots of your self-sabotage. The Lord your Husband, Redeemer and the Holy One of Israel will help you.
  • “Fear not, you worm Jacob,
    You men of Israel!
    I will help you,” says the Lord
    And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
    Isaiah 41:14 (NKJV)

Stewardship/Reflection

I invite you to take time with the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel, and ponder these items for growth in your daily walk with Him.

Please ask the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel:

  • Are there areas in your life that in some way you despise or not like the instruction of the Lord?
  • If so, what are they?
  • How does not following them hurt you and keep you from living from the promises of the covenant with the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel?
  • Is there a root issue or a wound that needs to be healed in order to love and follow the Word from the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel, in order to receive His promises that come from living in covenant relationship with Him?
  • How does the Lord want to help you and redeem this area in your life?
  • Are there things you need to add or remove from your life to aid in your victory in this area?
  • What does Scripture say about how your life would look when living from a place of victory in this particular area of focus? What does it look like in context of the provisions of the covenant of life and peace the Lord our Husband, the Lord of Hosts, the Holy One of Israel, has made with you?

The Lord Our Husband, the Holy One of Israel

The Lord our Husband as the Holy One of Israel, shows our Husband in context of being sovereign over the nation of Israel. Perhaps we may not be direct members of the nation of Israel, but we can learn about our role in the Kingdom of Heaven and our role with the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel. As members of the Kingdom of Heaven, our Husband’s people are to be a pure and holy nation that turns toward Him—not away from Him and provoking Him to anger. We have responsibility for our individual selves. We are also part of a Kingdom and our behavior impacts more than just us individually. In addition for repenting for yourself and your generations, please include in this section repenting on behalf of your nation of provoking the Holy One of Israel to anger of the items listed below. In replacement, please ask the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel, how you are to interact in your Husband’s Kingdom with others to encourage their relationship with Him.

Repent

  • Provoking our Husband, the Holy One of Israel to anger by the following (Is 1:4):
    • Being a sinful nation
    • Being laden with iniquity
    • Being a brood of evil doers
    • Being corrupt children

I invite you to take time with the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel, and ponder these items for growth in your daily walk with Him.

Please ask the Lord your Husband, the Holy One of Israel the following:

  • In what areas of your life do you need to return to the Holy One of Israel?
    • What needs to be put into place for this to be successful?
  • What does returning and resting for salvation and deliverance in the Holy One of Israel look like for situations you currently face?
  • What do you need for quietness and confidence to be your strength in returning to your Husband, the Holy One of Israel?
  • In taking a look at the bigger role you participate in the Kingdom that goes beyond being responsible for yourself as an individual, what areas is the Lord calling you to on a larger scale to impact the relationship of others in your city, community and/or nation in their relationship to the Holy One of Israel?
    • What steps need to be implemented to put this calling into action?
    • What is the Lord’s timeline for the steps to be implemented?

The Lord Our Husband, the Holy One of Israel

The title of the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel, has occupied many of my thoughts these past few weeks as I ponder and search out Scriptures that reveal who is the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. Learning who He is as the Holy One of Israel shows us who He wants to be to us. We see how we are to interact with Him and how we are to speak of Him to others.

How often they provoked Him in the wilderness,
And grieved Him in the desert!
Yes, again and again they tempted God,
And limited the Holy One of Israel.
They did not remember His power:
The day when He redeemed them from the enemy.
Psalm 78:40-42 (NKJV)

The Lord Our Husband, the Holy One of Israel

Scripture conveys to us how we are to interact with the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel. It shows us what breaks down and what strengthens our relationship with Him.

As I look through these passages, I find myself sorrowful and repentant of how I have treated the Lord my Husband, the Holy One of Israel. I know it is not right to treat the Lord in these ways, but to think of them in the aspect of treating the Lord my Husband in these ways sheds a new light on how I treat Him. I would never think of saying anything negative or devaluing of pure gold, or a perfect diamond. Yet, the Lord my Husband, the Holy One of Israel, is far more precious and perfect than anything I know of on earth. How much more respectful and honoring am I to be to the Lord my Husband, the Holy One of Israel, than I am to things that are temporal and created by the Maker of everything?

I invite you to join me in repenting of the negative relational aspects of how we and/or our generations have treated the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel. After repenting, please replace by using the following Scriptures related to the Lord our Husband, the Holy One of Israel.

Implementation & Reflection

    • If so, why do I do that?
    • Is there a wound or pain that I have that is the source of me reproaching You?

  • Please teach me in ways I have not known before as how to praise and sing to You as my Husband, the Holy One of Israel.
  • What practical steps do I need to apply to my life to actively participate in the replacement items listed above?

The Lord of hosts is His name;
And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
He is called the God of the whole earth.
Isaiah 54:5 (NKJV)

 

Names of the Lord Our Husband

Isaiah 54:5 shows us several names that are specific to the Lord as our Husband.

  • Our Maker is our Husband.
  • Our Husband’s name is the Lord of Hosts.
  • Our Redeemer is our Husband.
  • Our Husband is the Holy One of Israel.
  • Our Husband is called the God of the whole earth.

Blessing: The Lord of Hosts is Our Husband

Beloved, the Lord your Maker created you to live in covenant relationship with Him as the Lord your Husband, whose name is the Lord of Hosts.

Beloved, hear the Word of the Lord for you.

For your Maker is your husband,
The Lord of hosts is His name;
And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
He is called the God of the whole earth.
Isaiah 54:5 (NKJV)

Then you shall know that I have sent this commandment to you,
That My covenant with Levi may continue,”
Says the Lord of hosts.
“My covenant was with him, one of life and peace,
And I gave them to him that he might fear Me;
So he feared Me
And was reverent before My name.”
Malachi 2:4-5 (NKJV)

Beloved, the Lord of Hosts made a covenant of life and peace with Levi as a priest that extended to his descendants. When you are in Christ, you are a member of the royal priesthood (1 Pet 2:9). Since Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever, what the Lord intended for the covenant of life and peace with Levi as a priest and his descendants, He intends for you today as a member of the royal priesthood.

The Hebrew word for peace is shalom, which means, “completeness (in number); safety and soundness (in body); welfare, health and prosperity; peace, quiet and tranquility; contentment; peace, friendship of human relationships and with God especially in covenant relationship; peace (from war).”

As the Lord of Hosts, your Husband is the Commander-in-Chief of the armies of angels. Thus, He is able to provide the protection from the enemy that is available to you in this covenant of life and peace.

Beloved, I bless you to live from the provision of the covenant of life and peace the Lord your Husband, the Lord of Hosts, has made with you. May you fully experience the provision of abundant life made available to you by your Husband in the covenant of life and peace. I bless you to live from the provisions of the covenant of peace/shalom, which include: completeness (in number); safety and soundness (in body); welfare health and prosperity; peace, quiet and tranquility; contentment; peace, friendship of human relationships and with God especially in covenant relationship; peace (from war).

I bless you to be strengthened by the assurance of the Lord your Husband’s love for you to know He will protect you in this covenant relationship. May you grow in your identity and love by knowing and experiencing your Husband’s covenant with you for life and shalom.

Beloved, please turn your face to the Lord your Husband, the Lord of Hosts. Please ask Him to teach you how to live from the fullness of the covenant of life and peace He has made with you. Please ask Him how you can relate to Him as your Husband, the Lord of Hosts, within the provisions of the covenant of life and peace. Please ask Him to instruct your spirit, soul and body to live from the provisions contained in the covenant of life and peace.

Beloved, I bless you to know the Lord your Husband, the Lord of Hosts, has made a covenant of life and peace with you. May your Husband bless your spirit, soul and body with the provisions that come from the covenant of life and peace. I bless you in the name of Yeshua, in the name of Jesus.
