The Names of God in Psalms 23

A very popular verse, isn't it? Most times we read and recite these chapter for various purposes. In these study, we will consider the names of God inculcated in these chapter.

Vs 1 THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD [He is Jehovah-Raah—The Lord, my Shepherd!]

I SHALL NOT WANT. [He is Jehovah Jireh—The Lord, my Provider!]

Vs 2 HE MAKETH ME TO LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES: HE LEADETH ME BESIDE THE STILL WATERS. [He is Jehovah-Shalom—The Lord, my Peace!]

Vs 3 HE RESTORETH MY SOUL
[He is Jehovah-Rophe—The Lord, my Healer!]:

HE LEADETH ME IN THE PATHS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR HIS NAME’S SAKE. [He is Jehovah-Tsidkeneau—The Lord of Righteousness!]

Vs 4 YEA, THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH I WILL FEAR NO EVIL: FOR THOU ART WITH ME; [He is Jehovah-Shama —The Lord is Present!]

THY ROD AND THY STAFF THEY COMFORT ME. [He is Jehovah-Ezer —The Lord, my Help!]

Vs 5 THOU PREPAREST A TABLE BEFORE ME IN THE PRESENCE OF MINE ENEMIES: [He is Jehovah-Nissi—The Lord, my Standard of Victory!]

THOU ANOINTEST MY HEAD WITH OIL; [He is Jehovah-InKaddesh— The Lord, my Holiness, my Sanctification!]

MY CUP RUNNETH OVER. [He is Jehovah-Manah—The Lord my Portion!]

Vs 6 SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE: AND I WILL DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD FOR EVER. [He is Jehovah-Cheleq—The Lord my Inheritance!]

SHALOM
