When we call upon God in our times of distress, He listens and responds with healing. This healing can be physical, emotional, or spiritual, reflecting God’s comprehensive care for our well-being.

People’s Hope and Ability for God to Heal Them Instantly

The hope for instant healing is a common desire among believers. Psalm 30:2 reassures us that God is capable of providing immediate relief and restoration.

 Divine Vengeance and Redemption 


Introduction

The verse from Psalm 3:7—Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly”—resonates with themes of divine intervention, justice, and deliverance.

As we delve into its layers of meaning, we find profound insights that speak to the human condition, faith, and our relationship with God. It is a sobering and solid emotion that sustains us in the realization that His love and protection for us endures forever. It is solid and never ends. His mercy covers each of us, and His ears are always open to our cries!

He is constant. He is never moving away from us, in fact – when we accept Him – He moves even closer to us!  His patience and tenderness is as gentle as a dove or lamb. And His vengeance is as furious as the roar of a Lion.

He is our LORD, and our Savior and our God. His Book of love to us – the Bible is filled with His voice, and His promises, and His blessings. Along with warnings, and cursing’s for those who are against His children and His Word.

Do you know the LORD?  Have you opened His book lately? Do you hear His voice?  He’s calling you-


Insights and Commentary

  1. Divine Intervention and Protection:
    • The psalmist’s plea— “Arise, O Lord; save me”—expresses vulnerability and dependence. In times of distress, we turn to God, acknowledging His sovereignty and power.
    • The imagery of smiting enemies upon the cheek bone and breaking their teeth portrays God’s decisive action against evil. It symbolizes both physical defeat and spiritual triumph.
  2. Justice and Righteousness:
    • God’s justice is not arbitrary; it is purposeful. The ungodly face consequences for their actions. The broken teeth represent their inability to harm further.
    • As believers, we seek justice tempered with mercy. We recognize that God’s judgment is just, even when it seems severe.
  3. Redemption and Restoration:
    • The broken teeth can also symbolize redemption. When God intervenes, He restores what was lost or damaged.
    • Our brokenness—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual—can be healed through God’s grace. He replaces our brokenness with wholeness.
  4. Reflective Questions:
    • How do we respond when faced with enemies or adversity? Do we trust in God’s deliverance?
    • Are we willing to pray boldly, asking God to arise and act on our behalf?
    • How can we extend God’s justice and mercy to others?

Unified Prayer

“Dear LORD, Arise in our lives, O Lord, and save us. Break the teeth of our enemies—the forces of darkness that seek to harm us. Grant us discernment to recognize justice and compassion. May our brokenness lead to redemption and restoration. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.”


Meditative Takeaway

As we meditate on Psalm 3:7, let us remember that God’s intervention is both powerful and purposeful. May we seek His justice, extend His mercy, and find hope in His redemptive work.

DEAR GOD: You Are Our Jehovah-Rapha – My Healer~

Divine Healing Is For You Today! - AFCM International

 

“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.”
-Exodus 15:26 

Exodus 15:26 is a verse that encapsulates the profound nature of God’s relationship with His people, highlighting His role as a healer and protector. The verse reads: “If you will diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, your healer.”

It stands today with us as well if we follow His ways, commandments and His voice – and trust in Him. He will lead us to safety and heal our hearts and souls. We need to seek Him first in all we do.

The Covenant of Healing: This verse is set in the context of God’s covenant with Israel. It follows the miraculous deliverance of the Israelites from Egypt and their crossing of the Red Sea. Here, God promises to be their healer, but this promise is conditional upon their obedience and faithfulness. It’s a powerful reminder that the relationship between God and His people is interactive and reciprocal.

When we obey and align with His Word and follow Him and do all according to His will and purpose for our lives, we will be healed in more ways than one. Our body heart mind and soul is in His very capable hands.

God as Jehovah-Rapha: The name Jehovah-Rapha, meaning “The Lord Who Heals,” is revealed in this passage. It’s not just physical healing that’s in view here, but a holistic restoration—spiritual, emotional, and societal. The diseases of Egypt can be seen as symbolic of the spiritual and moral corruption that God’s people are to be delivered from.

The evil world and chaotic setting in our society today is how God will heal. He will lighten our load and highlight the path in which we should walk. He will heal our souls and wash us clean. 

Moral Implications: The moral takeaway from Exodus 15:26 is the importance of obedience and trust in God. It teaches us that adherence to God’s commandments is not merely a legalistic requirement but a path to well-being and protection from the ‘diseases’—be they literal or figurative—that afflict humanity.

As we reflect and meditate on His Word and partake of His goodness in all we do, we will see His promises come to fruition. He will ultimately heal us in the way it is most beneficial for us.  The biggest healing is of our souls that we can live forever through Christ.

Exodus 15:26 serves as a reminder that God’s desire for His people is wholeness and health. It challenges us to reflect on our own lives and consider how we are responding to God’s call to obedience. Are we listening to His voice and doing what is right in His eyes?

  Reflection:

  • How can we apply the principle of obedience to God in our modern context?
  • What are the ‘diseases’ in our lives that we need healing from?
  • In what ways can we become more attuned to the voice of God?

 “Dear Lord, You are Jehovah-Rapha, our healer. We thank You for Your promises and Your faithfulness. Help us to listen to Your voice and to walk in Your ways without fail.  Heal us from diseases that plague our spirits and our societies. May we find our strength and restoration in You. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.”

DEAR GOD: HEAL OUR LAND & HEAR OUR PRAYERS~

2 Chronicles 7:14:

Psalm 91 (NKJV)

 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 

 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” 

 Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence. 

He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day, 

Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. 

A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you. 

Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked.

Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, 

10 No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; 1

For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways.

In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone. 

You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

 14 “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name. 

15 He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. 

16 With long life I will satisfy him, And show him My salvation.”
