YESHUA
From You Version
Salvation / Jesus
Matthew 1.21
PRAYER
Jesus, my Savior, I offer You my utmost praise, recognizing that salvation can be found in no one else but in Your mighty name.
I am deeply grateful for Your redemptive plan, which encompasses Your sacrificial love, mercy, patience, and grace. Through it, You have set me free from sins and eternal punishment.
Forgive me when I fail to appreciate the magnitude of Your salvation. Although it is freely given, it came at an immeasurable cost. You, Jesus, paid a price that no one else could bear.
Holy Spirit, please remind me continually of the incredible privilege it is to be saved by Your grace. Open my eyes to the desperate need for Your salvation in the world, and ignite my heart with a desire to take action and share Your love with those who are lost.
Because You are my Salvation, I declare I am saved by grace through faith. I am unconditionally loved. I am forgiven. I am truly free.

A FEW FACTS…
- Yeshua, in its Aramaic form, is derived from the Hebrew name Yehoshua (Joshua). It carries the meaning of “salvation,” “to save,” “to rescue,” and signifies “Yahweh (The LORD) is salvation.”
- The name Jesus can be traced back to the root of the name Yeshua.
- The transliteration process from Yeshua to Jesus occurred as follows:
[Hebrew/Aramaic] Ye-sh-ua (Yay-shoo-ah)
-> [Greek] Iesous (ee-ay-sous)
-> [Latin] Ie-s-us (ee-ay-sous)
-> [English] Je-s-us (gee-sus) - In biblical Hebrew, a name held more significance than merely being a unique identifier. It reflected the individual’s calling, purpose, or destiny.
