G14b 26 for 2026, Remember, God is…Savior

Our theme for April is: Remember Who God Is and our first verse for April is Psalm 27:1

For part b of the blog, we’ll look more closely at the second quality listed, God as our Savior.

2. Yahweh is my salvation. Hebrew noun = yesha. (H3468)The noun is primarily used to mean physical rescue by God. It is from the verb yesha’ which is part of Jesus’ Name in Ancient Hebrew, Yahusha, or in Aramaic Hebrew, Yeshua, meaning “Yahweh saves” or “Yahweh’s salvation.”

Basically, anytime you see “The LORD is my salvation” or in some translations, “God my Savior,” in the Old Testament, that is Jesus’ Name! So, underneath each of the following verses where this phrase appears, I have paraphrased the verse and substituted Jesus’ Name for that phrase.

“We cry out, ‘Save us, Jesus…’
that we may give You thanks…
that we may glory in praising You.”
“Yahweh lives!
I praise my Rock.
I exalt my Jesus.”
“Yahweh blesses the pure in heart,
and Jesus declares them righteous.”
“Guide me in God’s truth and teach me, Jesus,
Because I look to You for answers all day long.”
“By awe-inspiring acts and
By Your righteousness, Jesus,
You answer our prayers,
You alone are the Hope of all the Earth. “

WOW! Isn’t that awesome? It gives me a whole new view of Jesus in the Old Testament. I hope it does for you too.
