Insomnia - from old blog


OK, so I can't sleep.

Everyone is asleep. The hubby, boys, cat, dogs ... even the puppies.

Not me.

I'm still sitting here staring at my computer screen.

Might as well do something constructive, so ...

Word Study:

Yehovah-Tsidkenu
Strong's Reference: 03072
proper noun
Yehovah is our righteousness
1) a sacred name symbolically applied to Jerusalem

Yehovah-Tsidkenu means Yehovah is our righteousness.

Speaking of the king that will come to reign over Israel:

Yirmeyahu (Jeremiah) 23:6 - In his days Y'hudah will be saved, Isra'el will live in safety, and the name given to him will be Yehovah-Tzidkenu [Yehovah our righteousness].

and as the name applied to the holy city of Jerusalem:

Yirmeyahu (Jeremiah) 33:16- When those days come, Y'hudah will be saved, Yerushalayim will live in safety, and the name given to her will be Yehovah-Tzidkenu [Yehovah our Righteousness].

Yehovah is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abounds in loving kindness. He does not reward us according to our iniquities nor is He angry with us forever. As far as the east is from the west he removes our transgressions from us.

Just as a father has compassion on his children, Yehovah has compassion on those who fear Him. He is the God of our redemption, the restorer of our soul, Yehovah-tsidkenu, The Lord Our Righteousness.
