Making God as Lord in your life is not as simple as saying a prayer.  Unlike the prayer of repentance, where God changes you instantly from a sinner to a saint, making God your ‘Adonai is a daily minute by minute prayer.  It is the struggle of taking your will and submitting it to God’s will.  It is continually putting yourself under his dependence and control.  And it takes a lifetime to perfect.  We all struggle with obedience to God and following him 100% but by doing so we find that life is more enjoyable and wonderful.  Knowing some of the other names (Almighty God, God Most High, the God who made me, the God who sees me) helps us in following our ‘Adonai.  Because we had a God who can be trusted and relied on and who is strong enough, powerful enough, and wise enough to lead us to where he wants us to go.  And that is the power of ‘Adonai.
