Names of God: Yahweh-Raah

Yahweh-Raah means the Lord is my Shepherd.

Of course, the best-known scripture of this is Psalm 23.

A shepherd is one who feeds his flock and leads them to green pastures.

Jesus proclaims “I am the good shepherd” {John 10:14}

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

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.
