In I Chronicles 16:23-29 the name used for God is "LORD". As finite beings it stretches us to be able to demonstrate to the world in which we live how truly all sufficient He truly is. The writer in this section gives us ways we can make known who this God is and what He has that can truly make our lives truly fulfilled.
