Names of God | Jehovah Raah | Ps. Joel Wood

In the final message of our Names of God series, we discover the comfort and confidence found in Jehovah Raah—The Lord Our Shepherd. Through Psalm 23, we see God's heart to guide, provide, restore, protect, and remain present with His people. No matter what valley you face, the Shepherd is with you, faithfully leading you every step of the way.

Names of God | Jehovah Shammah | Ps. Joel Wood

In Part 6 of our Names of God series, we explore the powerful name Jehovah Shammah, meaning "The Lord Is There." First revealed in Ezekiel's vision of restoration, this name reminded God's people that even after seasons of loss, captivity, and brokenness, His presence had not abandoned them. Through Scripture, we see God's unwavering desire to dwell among His people—from the Garden of Eden, to the Tabernacle and Temple, to Christ and the indwelling Holy Spirit. Jehovah Shammah reveals a God who is faithful, present, comforting, and intimately involved in our lives. If you've ever felt alone, overwhelmed, spiritually dry, or uncertain about the future, this message will remind you of a life-changing truth: God's presence is not based on your feelings—it's based on His promise. No matter what you're facing, He is with you, He is for you, and He has not left. The Lord is there. And because He is there, you never face life's battles alone.

Names of God | Jehovah Shalom | Ps. Joel Wood

Jehovah Shalom | The Lord Our Peace In a world filled with uncertainty, fear, and constant pressure, God reveals Himself as Jehovah Shalom—The Lord Our Peace. Through the story of Gideon, discover that true peace is not found in the absence of problems but in the presence of God. This message explores how God's peace restores wholeness, calms fear, and gives confidence even before circumstances change. If you've been battling anxiety, doubt, or overwhelming situations, be encouraged: the same God who met Gideon in his weakness still speaks today, "Peace be with you; do not fear."
