My Theme for the Day is:
Jehovah Rapha (our
healer)
“Surely He has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet
we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for
our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our
peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. “ Is. 53:4-5
We could say: Jesus took our heartaches and mourning, our disobedience
and wickedness. He was even penalized for us to have peace! AND, by His stripes
we are healed! We can go to Him knowing
He went before us and paid the complete price.
Prophecy! The book of Isaiah was written 700 years before
Jesus walked upon the earth and it all came to pass. Jesus suffered 39 stripes with a
cat-o-nine-tails so we could be healed. That is 39 X 9 = 351 lashes. I understand He was completely unrecognizable
and one large massive wound.
I am a very non-violent person. It is my nature not to see
harm done to anyone. The Bible says the
life of the flesh is in the blood. His
blood ran that day, so we would have life in so many ways. So we can have a sound mind, so our own wounds
would clot, close and heal. So that our eyes would be open to this new eternal life. God will use who He needs to use to bring
about your wholeness. Do not put God in
a box or limit Him. There are reasons He uses the herbs in the fields, Doctors
and their medicine. In every case He
wants you to believe that He is, the Great Creator; and Jehovah Rapha the Healer. Put your trust in Jehovah Rapha today and ask
Him to heal your heart.
