SACRED NAME

Yahweh ~ Yehovah ~ Yahveh

Yahweh ~ Yehovah ~ YahvehJerusalem Rivers, through music and word is dedicated to helping believers understand the importance of the name YAHWEH that has been revealed in these last days. When Yahshua walked the earth, he said:

“For I say to you, from now on you will not see Me until you say, ‘Blessed is the one who comes in the name of YAHWEH.”
(Matthew 23:39)

Do you know the name of the one true ELOHIM (God)? Believers of religions of the world call on the name of their deity to distinguish their “god” from other gods. However, Christians and Jews do not speak the name of their God. Those of the Jewish faith, who know the true name of their “god” instead use titles like “Adonai” or “HaShem” as replacements for the holy name. It started when God used Babylon as his agents of judgement for Israel’s sins of idolatry and rebellion. The Babylonians captured the Jews for the propesied exile period of 70 years that ended in 537 B.C. During that time, the Jews did not want the name of their true god uttered and profaned by their enemies, so they used substitute titles for His name that have remained in use today.

Christians also use titles such as “Lord” and “God” that merely denotes any deity or person and are not aware of the importance of calling on Yahweh’s true name.

His name, YAHWEH appears 6,823 times in the bible. Each time His name appears in the original Hebrew text as YHWH it was replaced by the translators with the title LORD. This was done because of the tmradition that His name was too holy to pronounce. that persisted since the captivity. However, YAHWEH wants us to know and call upon His true name. By doing so, we can be sure that our prayers are directed to our diety – the one and only almighty, YAHWEH.

YAHWEH wants his people to call on His name and to know His name. His name is YAHWEH and he declared his name in the days of Moses.

“ELOHIM also said to Moses, ‘Say to the Israelites, YAHWEH, the ELOHIM of your fathers — the ELOHIM of Abraham, the ELOHIM of Isaac and the ELOHIM of Jacob — has sent me to you. This is my name forever, the name you shall call me from generation to generation.”
(Exodus 3:15)

“Everyone who calls on the name YAHWEH shall be saved.”
(Romans 10:13)

There are several pronunciations for the name of God (ELOHIM). We use YAHWEH, which is the most well known pronunciation. Other believers and scholars say “Yahveh” or “Yehovah.” Whichever pronunciation you choose, they all identify the one true Elohim – the ELOHIM of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. We are posting four videos on the pronunciation and importance of using Yahweh’s true name.

  1. Dr. Nehemiah Gordon explains the importance of the sacred name on the Global Outpouring podcast.

2. In this video, Norman Willis (Nazarene Israel) examines the many pronunciations of the name YAHWEH

3. Messianic teacher, Michael Rood gives an excellent presentation of the absolute importance of using YAHWEH, the true and holy name of God (ELOHIM). He also speaks about true worship of YAHWEH and the lies we have inherited from our forefathers.

4. Hebrew scholar, Nehemiah Gordon, Ph.D. (NehemiahsWall.com) has spent his life’s work researching ancient Hebrew manuscripts to verify and discover the true name. His findings conclude that the pronumciation of the true name is YeHoVaH.
