Yahweh Rophe – The Lord Who Heals
רפאך יהוה אני ─ ANI YHWH ROPHE'ÄKA
"I Am YHWH Who Heals You"
Exodus 15:26
The LORD said, "IF you will diligently hearken to the voice of YHWH your GOD, and do what is right in His eyes, and incline your ears to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you that I have put upon the Egyptians; for I am YHWH who heals you" (Exodus 15:26).
What a wonderful promise GOD has given us, to heal us and keep us healthy from all diseases. There is only ONE condition: that we listen to His voice. May we always seek Him directly, who is not only our great Physician, but our HEALER.
Our full health is so important to Him, who loves us, that He has promised it over and over again:
"It shall come to pass, IF you listen to these judgments, and keep and do them, that YHWH your God will keep with you the covenant and the mercy which He swore to your fathers. And He will love you and bless you and multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock, in the land of which He swore to your fathers to give you. You shall be blessed above all peoples; there shall not be a male or female barren among you or among your livestock. And YHWH will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict you with none of the terrible diseases of Egypt which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you” (Deut. 7:12 -15).
“You shall serve YHWH your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfil the number of your days” (Ex. 23:25 -26).
“Bless YHWH, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy Name! Bless YHWH, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercies, who satisfies your adornment [ph. the flourishing almond-tree] with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's” (Psalm 103:1-5).
GOD promises perfect health to His children when they obey Him with a perfect heart. And we ask, "How can we receive that right now?"
Trust GOD
P 100 a. HE is the ALMIGHTY GOD. b. put GOD First.
“the great and terrible El” P 100 Neh. 1:5; “the Righteous-Mighty One” Pdf 100 Job 34:17; “GOD in the heavens” P 100 2 Chr. 20:6; “He who thrones upon the cherubim” P 100 Ps. 80:2; “for the mouth of YHWH has spoken” P 100 Is. 40:5.
a. Look up to GOD. Is anything too difficult for YHWH? (Gen. 18:14; Jer. 32:27,17; Luke 1:37). GOD is GOD; the Almighty Creator of the heavens and the earth (Gen. 1:1; 14:19 . Is. 40:28). He created you. Did you help Him in doing that? (Job 38:1‑7; Psa. 139). Do you think He cannot mend a broken member?
"And GOD saw everything that He had made, and behold it was very good" (Genesis 1:31 ). But there was NO sin. If we do away with sin, GOD restores perfect health and happiness. Sin is lawlessness (1 John 3:4). Sin is rebellion against GOD.
Yeshua said, "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments" (John 14:15 ). Loving GOD is the only way to obey GOD (Matt. 22:37‑40).
He who loves and obeys GOD, has ALL the blessings of GOD.
GOD looks upon the heart. If you keep the greatest commandment of all, you will perfectly keep all the other commandments (Deut. 6:4‑5). "Hear, Israel : YHWH our GOD YHWH is One; and you shall love YHWH your GOD with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength." Romans 13:10.
How is your prayer fellowship with GOD? (That is a thermometer.)
Mary sat down at the feet of Yeshua listening (Luke 10:42 ). Inspired by the Holy Spirit she anointed her Lord, the best she could do.
b. Let GOD be the First in your life? (Is. 44:6; 48:12). First in the morning? (Mark 1:35 ).
Do you seek GOD, or His healing?
Are you satisfied with GOD and His promise?
GOD can impossibly lie (Heb. 6:18 ).
I suggest that we start looking upon GOD and simply take His promise as a love‑gift and begin praising Him, thanking Him for His gift, thanking Him for Himself, giving Him our heart.
Love is health. Love heals all wounds.
