Covenant Names of God Jehovah is the redemptive name for God and means: The Self-Existent One Who Reveals Himself. Jehovah has seven compound redemptive names which reveal Him as meeting every need of His covenant people. Jehovah-Shammah The Lord is There. Ezekiel 48:35b ... and the name of the city from that day shall be: The LORD Is There. Jehovah-Shalom The Lord Is Peace. Judges 6:23,24a Then the LORD said to him, “Peace be with you; do not fear, you shall not die.” So Gideon built an altar there to the LORD, and called it The-Lord-Shalom (Peace). Jehovah-Raah The Lord Is My Shepherd. Psalm 23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. Jehovah-Jireh The Lord Will Provide. Genesis 22:13,14 Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son. And Abraham called the name of the place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of The LORD it shall be provided.” Jehovah-Nissi The Lord is Our Banner, Victor, or Captain. Exodus 17:12,13,15 But Moses hands became heavy; so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. So Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. And Moses built an altar and called its name, The-Lord-Is-My-Banner. Jehovah-Tsidkenu The Lord Our Righteousness. Jeremiah 23:6 In His days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell safely; now this is His name by which He will be called: THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. Jehovah-Rapha I Am the Lord Your Physician, or I am the Lord That Heals You. Exodus 15:26b For I am the LORD who heals you. Nowhere in the Word do we see where God has canceled this covenant. Nowhere can we find that He has become “I was the Lord Your Physician,” or “I was the Lord That Used to Heal Them.” Nowhere does God say, “I am the Lord your God who makes you sick.” God never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever, and He is still our Healer!
