Jehovah Rapha | The Names of God | Robby Williams

Russ Pullen

God's identity as Jehovah Rapha - the Lord who heals - reveals a fundamental aspect of His character and His relationship with His people. This healing nature, first demonstrated when He turned bitter waters sweet for the Israelites, extends far beyond physical restoration to encompass emotional trauma, mental health struggles, and spiritual brokenness. The journey to receiving God's healing often requires overcoming various barriers, including our reluctance to admit need, tendency to make excuses, and attempts to heal ourselves. True healing begins when we honestly confront our brokenness and actively respond to Jesus' question, 'Do you want to get well?' This involves taking concrete steps of faith, whether through seeking counseling, joining support groups, or sharing struggles with trusted friends. While God's healing power is constant, His timing and methods may differ from our expectations. The key lies in trusting His character as Healer and moving toward Him rather than remaining in our broken condition. This process calls for both faith and action, combining trust in God's healing power with practical steps toward wholeness.

Our mission is to multiply God’s Kingdom through being and making disciples everywhere.
