What does the Bible say about the name 'Almighty' referring to God?

Answered in 1 source

The name 'Almighty' signifies God's all-sufficiency and sovereignty, reflecting His power and sufficiency for His people.

In the Bible, the name 'Almighty' is a profound declaration of God's character as all-sufficient and sovereign. It emphasizes that He is not only powerful but also fully capable of fulfilling all His promises to His people. This understanding is rooted in Genesis 17:1, where God reveals Himself to Abram as 'the Almighty God' – a title that assures Abram that God will accomplish His covenant despite human insufficiencies. This name recurs throughout scripture, highlighting God's immutability and faithfulness in fulfilling His promises, as none can thwart His will or diminish His power. Thus, 'Almighty' conveys not just His omnipotence but His unwavering commitment to care for and provide for His people.
