In 2010 after doing a study of the Names of God, I began a study of the Psalms. When I came to Psalm 23, I began to see many of God’s names revealed in the psalm by the works of our Great Shepherd. I believe this was a revealing of a remez (in Jewish hermeneutics: something hidden, or tucked away, in the text) and it was revealed by the Holy Spirit — the best Teacher in the whole world.
Learn the names of God that are found in Psalm 23. This short teaching uncovers eight names of God tucked away in the psalm we call The Great Shepherd Psalm. Find them now!

Do You Know Jesus?
The Bible clearly states that everyone has sinned and fallen short of God's glory (Romans 3:23). It also emphasizes that while the wages of sin is death, God offers us the incredible gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23).
If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, know that today is the day of salvation (Acts 28). Turn away from your sinful past and turn to Jesus. Remember, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ will be saved” (Romans 10:13). Don’t wait—find hope and redemption!
