The Supreme Being, whose distinctive name is Jehovah. The Hebrew language uses terms for “God” that convey the idea of strength, also of majesty, dignity, and excellence. In contrast to the true God, there are false gods. Some of these have set themselves up as gods; others have been made objects of worship by those who serve them.
Are there sound reasons for believing in God?
Ps. 19:1: “The heavens are declaring the glory of God; and of the work of his hands the expanse is telling.”
Ps. 104:24: “How many your works are, O Jehovah! All of them in wisdom you have made. The earth is full of your productions.”
Rom. 1:20: “His invisible qualities are clearly seen from the world’s creation onward, because they are perceived by the things made.”

The Lord God is Soverign Creator.
The god of this earth is named as Satan in the Bible.
'Ye are gods' refers to judges as in those who judge right from wrong.
Then there are gods that are idols representing various aspects of man and nature.
I suppose it all depends on context.

Probably a description of the devine being, or the thing that is worshipped.
In the Bible God is referred to at YHWH, or the Lord.
