[Exodus 15:26 KJV] “And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee”.
I want to speak about the Lord who heals us. There is God in heaven who oversees everything on earth and heals all of our infirmities. There is no God like Jehovah. He is our healer and He is ready to heal the nations with the “balm of Gilead”. I believe we are living in times when the world must hear and know that our God is the great healer. He healed yesterday, He is healing today, and will heal tomorrow. The church should not pretend that you don’t know that God heals.
I pray that we shall receive a breakthrough in science but my hope and faith are not in science. I am praying that the heaven and the earth and the forces of nature shall rally up against this pandemic. I pray that the atmosphere shall be unfriendly to this virus. May nature empowered by the power of God tame this virus on a rampage! I know that scientist are trying their best but we have the power to tame this beast too.
I will be glad if you believe me but I will not be discouraged if you doubt me; that is your challenge, not mine. This is the time and now is the season to speak authoritatively. Oh God has mercy on us.
Healing is the process of recovering health or becoming well again. To heal, therefore, is to restore soundness to a person or thing or place. Healing in this context is the process of restoring health and soundness to a person. In the context of this teaching, we are referring to a holistic or total restoration of health or well being: body, soul, spirit.
In fact, a restoration of health or healing can be grouped into six dimensions;
1. Bodily health
2. Mental health
3. Social wellbeing
4. Spiritual health
5. Environmental health
6. Occupational health
I believe the Lord wants to give us holistic healing. He wants to help our bodies, mind, families, land, finances, and spirits. The Lord desires that you shall receive total health. God wants you to find freedom from poverty, find recovery of sight, find recovery from emotional brokenness, and organic mental illnesses. There are times when the infirmity is in the body but there are times when the infirmity is in the mind, or emotions, social arrangements, or in the land. Sometimes, what is killing us is in the land we feed and drink from.
The Lord is committed to restoring total health to us. He wants to heal our land, finances, body, mind, spirits, and society. He wants to clean out the mess and restore total soundness to all of His children. One of the least talked about health is mental health. Until recently, mental health needs and issues were always hashed, perhaps because of the fear of stigmatisation. Many people are afraid to be stigmatised, but I believe it is time to open up and talk about it because help is either here or on the way.
Don’t hide the infirmity. Don’t feign wellness when you can be healed completely. There is enough balm in Gilead to heal every sick person (See Jeremiah 8:33). I pray that we shall all join our faith and begin to believe for total healing. Let me emphasize that there is enough balm in Gilead that can heal every sick man or woman on earth. Our Lord is ready to heal and restore total soundness to this generation. The Bible tells us that our God is the “Lord that heals” us; “He forgives all our iniquities, and fills our mouths with good things”.
Our God heals all manner of diseases: on the skin, in the bone, in the mind, in the blood or any of the organs of the body. The Lord Jesus Christ does not just heal the body, but also restores the souls, and heals the broken spirit. There is no infirmity the Lord cannot heal. I believe that the Lord will heal every one of us and restore us.
Jehovah is the Lord that heals us. As Moses spoke and the plague ceased, we issue a command now against this plague to cease now! Amen!
Be blessed, I love you!
