What does Jehovah Jireh mean?

Answered in 2 sources

Jehovah Jireh means 'The Lord will provide,' highlighting God's provision for His people.

The name Jehovah Jireh signifies God's assurance of provision for those who are His. This was exemplified when Abraham, in a moment of testing, assured his son Isaac that God would provide a lamb for the sacrifice (Genesis 22:14). This demonstrates not only God's provision in physical needs but also points to the provision of Jesus Christ as the ultimate sacrifice. The use of Jehovah Jireh encourages believers to rely on God's providential care in their lives, reminding us that He knows our needs and will meet them according to His will.
