Greek · ar-KHAY-gos tes zo-EES
Author of Life
ἀρχηγὸς τῆς ζωῆς
The Originator of Life — the Prince who gives life to all
Symbol: The first green shoot of spring — life that originates and multiplies
“You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this.”
Acts 3:15
The One the world crucified was the very Author of all life — and death could not hold its own Maker.
What the name means
Archegos means originator, pioneer, prince — He did not merely borrow life; He is its Source.
The crowd chose a murderer over the Life-Giver; God reversed the verdict by raising the Author from the dead.
Pray this name over dead things: the Author of Life does not consult death — He overrules it.
How to pray this name
- Pray over what feels dead: 'Author of Life, breathe again.'
- Thank Him that your life is not your own project — it has an Author.
Author of Life, You are the Source of all that lives in me. Breathe on what is dying and raise it. In the Mighty Name of Jesus! Amen.
Declaration
My life has an Author and He lives — death cannot hold what He has made.
