The Lord Who Heals You

Scripture:

“He said, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you.””
‭‭Exodus‬ ‭15:26‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Observation:

When Israel came out of Egyptian captivity, the Lord drowned the Egyptian army in the Red Sea.  He demonstrated His power to His people.  In this passage, He makes a covenant with His people and tells them that if they will listen carefully to His voice and do what is right by keeping His commands and decrees, He would not all them to suffer the diseases He had put on the Egyptians, then He says, “I am the Lord who heals you.”

Application:

Here we see one of the names the Lord gave Himself, Yahweh Rapha, the Lord who heals you.  He gives His people a covenant here that tells them if they do things His way, He will be their healer and they would not suffer sickness and disease.  This covenant was based on carefully listening to the voice of the Lord and obeying accurately what He said.  If I want to see a greater level of healing in my life, I must have a greater level of obedience and a greater knowledge of His will.

Prayer:

Lord, I want to see You healing power flow in my life more and more.  Open my ears and eyes spiritually to know exactly Your will in every situation.  As I follow Your will, let Your healing flow in and through my life.  You are the Lord my healer!  I want to see the day when everyone is healed and Your name is exalted as the healer once again.  I want the doctors to be amazed by Your healing power.  I want my generation to see Your healing power once again.

Yours,
Jeff
