Genesis Seventeen - Name Change


"Then God said to Abraham, 'As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name. And I will bless her and also give you a son by her; then I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall be from her," Genesis 17:15-16, NKJV. #NameChange
A sudden, significant occurrence or "spiritual awakening" in the life of a person in the scriptures is oftentimes exemplified by a change in their name; some renamed themselves, while others received it by the hand of another person, like a king, or sometimes, by even God Himself.
Daniel 1:7, Matthew 16:17-18 and Acts 13:9.
