ELROI for Men

We may have noticed that many names for God include “El.” El typically refers to God. But Roi brings another attribute of our Lord to the equation. El Roi means “The God who sees me.”

Ro’iy in the original Hebrew can be translated as shepherd, or as seeing, looking, or gazing. 

In other words, when we feel most invisible and forgotten by everyone else, we can remember that God does see us. He witnesses our struggles and comes alongside us. After all, if he sees the sparrows and takes care of them (Matthew 6:26), how much more does he care for us in our greatest time of need?

He knows when we are saddened or joyful. He knows when we are confident or frightened. He knows when we are cheerful or disheartened. He knows when we are optimistic or full of pessimism. He knows everything about us. He never forsakes us. He knows what we are going through at this moment and he is ready to reach out his hand just like he did to Hagar.

✨️‭Genesis 16:11-14 CSB‬✨️

[11] The angel of the Lord said to her, “You have conceived and will have a son. You will name him Ishmael, for the Lord has heard your cry of affliction. [12] This man will be like a wild donkey. His hand will be against everyone, and everyone’s hand will be against him; he will settle near all his relatives.” [13] So she named the Lord who spoke to her: “You are El-roi,” for she said, “In this place, have I actually seen the one who sees me?” [14] That is why the well is called Beer-lahai-roi. It is between Kadesh and Bered.
