Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
The “Yud-Hay-Vav-Hay,” which we pronounce as Adon-ai, in prayer, it is written in Halacha that one should have in mind when mentioning the name that Hashem is Adon hakol (Master of all), Hayah, Hoveh, v’Yihyeh — which means that He was, He is, and He will be, existing beyond time and sustaining all existence at every moment.
Wishing you well.
