"I Am." Your Healer

One of the many names of God is; Jehovah Rapha, God who heals. In Exodus 15:26 He declares; “I am the Lord, who heals you.”

Throughout the Bible there are many wonderful references of how He healed those who were sick and suffering. There was the blind man, the woman who could not stand up straight, the man with palsy, the boy with seizures, the centurion’s child who was dying and the list goes on. God has shown the world how much He cares about our physical and spiritual health, and He has never stopped healing!

We can and should pray with all faith that He will heal us. But, when our healing is not when and how we expect it we should not become discouraged. God’s healing is not always as dramatic or instantaneous like we may see on some televised ministries. Sometimes His healing is slow allowing us to come closer to Him through prayer and meditation in His Word. He wants us to become more spiritually involved with Him during our healing process. 

There is also death, but we must remember death has no sting for the believer, for it is written in (1 Corinthians 15:55) "Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?" In truth death is our doorway to eternal life– our reward of eternal health and wholeness because Jesus has prepared the way for us!

What healing are you in need of today? May I say faith is our effective prescription for our healing. It is more than your remedy, it is your solution. Without faith there can be no healing. Whether it is faith in your doctor, your prescription or your God you must have faith! By all means have faith in God! He is our healer.

Our Walk With God

“Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many. I guide you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hampered, when you run, you will not stumble” (Proverbs 4:10-12). Our lives are built upon our first step, and   then proceed step after step after step thereafter. As infants we learn to crawl, then stand and eventually to walk to the waiting hands of our proud fathers and mothers. Our walking skills can develop into running skills; some of us will go on to run races, some will even run long distance marathons, but it all begins first with our desire to walk. The Lord tells us to listen to what He says to us through His Holy Spirit and the years of our lives will be many; as we go through life, our steps will not be hampered; when we hurry through our impossible daily schedules and race through our lives, we will not stumble.   All successful runners have a professional trainer, our trainer is ...

Day before yesterday, I cooked up a pot of "killer" chili. Yeah, I know it's not winter and chili is better in the winter. I like chili all-year long. Well, my chili fixin' was killer alright, it tore our stomachs up something terrible. Yesterday, I was miserable all day. I was so wanting my day to be over - I wanted a new day without stomach problems. Every day, God allows us a "do-over" and we get a new chance at living. Today, thankfully, I am feeling over my chili malady and I (am) starting over. I have a new opportunity today to seek more of Jesus. First, I will pray for my family and friends that they see more of Jesus and that their lives and their today is better than yesterday. And then, I am praying our nation stops this political division and hatred that is sickening our people. God help us to love you more and realize without You we are lost. You are our new day and we praise You for it.

Confused By False Prophets

Paul, an apostle – sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father – “I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel – which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned! As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned!” “Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ” (Galatians 1:6-10). Matthew; the first book of the Gospels warns in (Chapter 7:1-5) “Watch out for false prophets.” Accurately, these are those who in our present time, like in the time of th...
