IN the Old Covenant, God was known by many Names. These Names reveal a certain power or attribute of God, as experienced by the Old Testament saints. Whenever they encountered God in a special way, that experience usually births a new Name or Title of Him. Same God, but many Names. But, when Jesus Christ came, He gave us a new Name by which we can call Him and it's not a complicated one. It is a Name that all of us are surely familiar with. It is a Name that denotes intimacy and family closeness. It's a Name that Jesus Himself used across all the Gospels. And it is through that Name that Jesus prayed for protection for His people. It is The Name "Father".
