Its victims become blind to the beauty of Holiness, and see not the outstretched Hand of love and righteousness, so willing to rescue from the broad road of destruction; and they are deaf to the beseeching "Come unto Me…Why will ye die? If we know anything of the plague of our own heart, the marvel is intense. Who can understand the Love of God? Who can grasp the wonders of Salvation? For though the new heart be given and the "new spirit" put within Ezekiel Corruption, which taints all, can only put on incorruption when the soul becomes free from the burden of the flesh.
Then only shall we really know the love of God, and apprehend the wonders of Salvation. When this passing world is done. Meanwhile, the Lord has planted a monitor within; we are not left in ignorance of our defileThe conscience is the testimony of the soul to show us what is good and what is evil. The Lord would have us know that we are sick, and have need of the Great Physician.
There are many in this world who know not that they have a disease within, which may deprive them of their natural life at any moment. So are there those who, being ignorant of Spiritual truth, are content, imagining themselves safe, and favoured citizens of Heaven, because they have done "their best," are honest in their conduct, "have done harm to none;" on the contrary, have a heap of so-called good works to boast of; they have given to the poor, built almshouses, churches, etc, and to them, as a matter of course, their claim is established.
God, being merciful, will forgive any little accidental misdemeanour. Oh, there are those, who trusting thus in themselves, sail cheerfully down the river of life without a doubt that all is right with them! But to such Jesus is not Jehovah Rophi, they do not need Him. We have an example of such set before us in the church of Laodicea, and her self-deception. Convinced that she was rich, and had need of nothing, "And knew not that she was wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind and naked" Revelation 3: That inward innate self-love and satisfaction is, indeed, as a thick film, blinding the eye to fearful consequences.

It is too true that even with the strictest examination and desire, it is hard to know ourselves; but to a believer the greatest comfort is that God knows him. How can a physician heal, except he know the malady? Thus, while to the unconverted who know not God, it is their anxiety to hide from Him, the child of God prays: And such will hear the answer: And with full heart will he exclaim: Dear friend, let us think of the woman of Samaria, and how the tender love of the Great Physician, who came to seek and to save poor lost souls, sought out her!
Of the living waters of which He spoke, she knew nothing; her degraded life had almost seared her conscience; but, there was yet a spot which could be touched, and the penetrating eye of Jesus discerned it. To kindle this dying ember, He sat on the well and rested on His journey, until the woman came upon her usual service to draw water. That this smoking flax was not quenched was shown in that it flickered up as the "live coal touched it," and the arrow of conviction pierced its hiding place.
But Jesus would not let this hidden spark be quenched. He came to Sychar to save a poor lost one, to show her the depth of her disease, and thus to heal. Friend of the lost, O Lord in Thee, Samaria's daughter there, Found one whom love had drawn to earth Her weight of guilt to bear. Her thoughtless heart that never knew The pulse of life before, There learned to love-was taught to sigh For earthly joys no more. And she who came to Jacob's well to draw water in her earthly pitcher, returned to draw water henceforth from the wells of salvation, ever springing up into everlasting life.
Who touched that leper, that outcast loathsome object, that type of sin, which none could touch without defilement, and which no earthly art could heal? Who spake the word to the Centurion? And his servant was made whole in that same hour. But can we have a more affecting instance of the love of the Divine Healer, than is recorded of the poor Syrophenician woman Mark 7: And lowly did she bend, even to be called a dog, so that she might catch the crumb falling from the Master's table.
Say, did she go empty away? Her faith was tried, but she knew Jehovah Rophi was His name. See again, His tender care for His disciples lest they should be over tired: And they departed by ship, privately. But did Jesus rest? No; He saw the eager multitude, and was moved with compassion towards them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and He taught them many things, until the disciples returned from their rest, at eventide.
Yet more, were the dead beyond His power? He raised them from the bier-He called them from the sepulchre.
I AM THE GOD THAT HEALETH THEE CHORDS (ver 2) by Don Moen @ theranchhands.com
But there are worse than in the grave! Oh, Power Supreme to heal! Oh, Thou Great Physician, send forth Thy word into all lands and gather in the sick, the dead, from the east and the west, and from the north and the south. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so now may the lifting up of the Son of Man be proclaimed, "with all Thy healing powers," for there is none to heal but Thou. There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: These things are written for our learning, and we are to apply all scripture to ourselves, and we know, indeed, that we have no "healing medicines," the putrifying sore of sin is to us incurable.
There is but One who can heal that wound-there is but one Jehovah Rophi. Ah, dear friend, as we contemplate all the marvellous provisions of salvation, let us think what a child of God is privileged to do. He has constant access to his Father's throne, through Christ, who sitteth at His right hand, ever living to intercede for him. He is invited to "come boldly that he may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need" Hebrews 4: Oh, better than the balm of Gilead is the healing power of Jesu's name.
It was when the waters of Marah were healed, and the Lord revealed Himself as Jehovah Rophi, that the people were led to Elim, where flowing wells and shady palm trees were in abundance, and where they for awhile encamped and were refreshed. And do we not find an Elim when the bitterness of our sin is removed from us by our "Tree of Life. Then is our Elim indeed a place of palm trees where times of refreshment never fail.
But we must not always rest. Earth has no long resting-place for the servant of the Lord. We must be up and doing, the Lord has work for us all. The Israelites, when strengthened, rose up and went on their journey, they did but encamp for awhile-and so must we.
We may sit at the feet of Jesus to hear and learn His word, but it is that we may declare it to others as David. If Jesus has rooted us up from the soil of this world, and planted us as trees in the Lord's vineyard we may not live in idleness, we must bring forth fruit to the praise of His glory. It is by the fruit that the tree is known. How can any take notice of us that we have been with Jesus, excepting by our fruits. But it may be that in healing the soul, the Lord may see it good to afflict the body; it is often so, and oftentimes the sickness of the latter is the means used to bring healing to the former.
What does Elihu teach Job?
Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers. He shall pray unto God, and He will be favourable unto him, and he shall see His face with joy; for He will render unto man His righteousness " Job Indeed, it is often on a suffering bed, that we can glorify God the most, and show what He hath done for our soul, and that by, and through the suffering of Jesus Himself, which exceeded anything that we can endure.
Where Christ displays His healing power, Death and the curse are known no more.

In Him the tribes of Adam boast, More blessings than their fathers lost. Clear spring of life! Till flowers and fruits of Paradise, Round all thy winding current rise. What shall I say to my sick and suffering friend? Nevertheless to speak "often one to another" Malachi 3: It is when we are sick that we need the physician, and is not "Jehovah Rophi, the Lord that healeth thee," the name of Him who when on earth, in the time of His sojourn among men went about healing all their diseases, and all their sicknesses? He calls us therefore to "follow" Him and we are tenderly and lovingly chastened, that we may be brought more into conformity to Him, and He would have us glorify Him in suffering as He glorified the Father in the perfect fulfilment of His will.
Therefore, dear friend, it has pleased the Lord to lay you on a suffering bed; but look upon it as a trial of faith which is "more precious than gold which perisheth, if it be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ" 1 Peter 1: It is not, perhaps, now in these days that we may be called upon to suffer persecution or any fiery trial such as the Apostles and martyrs of a past time did; but if the Lord call you to suffer where you are, rejoice that you are in a measure, and for His sake, a partaker of sufferings in which you can glorify Him, and try to realize more and more how loving is the Hand that is laid upon you for that very purpose.
One thing be assured of, "The Lord does not willingly afflict the children of men" Lamentations 3: To us all there is a "need be. Child of God has sickness laid thee On a weary bed of pain? He who chastens, He has saved thee; Thy Father's grace will thee sustain. Therefore count it all joy if He deem you worthy to show forth His loving-kindness and faithfulness. In your suffering you will hear the tender voice, "my grace is sufficient for thee, my strength is made perfect in weakness" 2 Corinthians They that remember the Lord, and see Him in the poor and needy around them, such will "He strengthen upon the bed of languishing, and make all their bed in their sickness" Psalm Then will He enable you to say unto Him: Thus richly are we provided in the Scriptures with healing balms, of prayers and praises, suitable for every circumstance especially in the utterances of David whose sufferings and trials were frequently typical of our Lord.
And happy is it when in health we have stored them up in our memories, for often it is hard to find words to express ourselves, when we are laden with sickness and prostrate with pain. It is then that the Lord's own inspired words come to us so forcibly and comfort us. The soul will not be left to thirst long for Jehovah Rophi is near-ever near His seeking ones in their weakness; and "when the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the Lord will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.
I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: Let me tell you a story to show how He will undertake for the most extreme case. One day I had been visiting the sick, and was with a friend of mine, an architect, when I saw a young man f from his office coming down the road in a car, and holding in his hand a telegram.
It contained a very urgent request that we go immediately to pray for a man who was dying. We went off in an auto as fast as possible and in about an hour and a half reached a large house in the country where the man who was dying resided. There were two staircases in that house, and it was extremely convenient, for the doctors could go up and down one, and my friend and I could go up and down the other, and so we had no occasion to meet. I found on arrival that it was a case of this sort.
The discharge from the bowels had formed abscesses, and blood poisoning had set in. Two doctors were in attendance, but they saw that the case was beyond their power. They had telegraphed to London for a great specialist, and, when we arrived, they were at the railway station awaiting his arrival.

The man was very near death and could not speak. Apparently there was no change. God often hides what He does. From day to day we find that God is doing wonderful things, and we receive reports of healings that have taken place that we heard nothing about at the time of our meetings. Only last night a woman came into the meeting suffering terribly. Her whole arm was filled with poison, and her blood was so poisoned that it was certain to bring her to her death.
We rebuked the thing, and she was here this morning and told us that she was without pain and had slept all night, a thing she had not done for two months. To God be all the praise. You will find He will do this kind of thing all along. As soon as we anointed and prayed for this brother we went down the back staircase and the three doctors came up the front staircase.
Then the conflict began. Go back and tell them you cannot allow it. They went downstairs by one staircase and we went up by the other. It is now the time for you to put your whole trust in God and prove Him wholly true. You can save him from a thousand doctors. You must stand with God and for God in this critical hour. He is my husband. Suddenly the man in the bed spoke. They rolled back the bed clothes and the doctors examined him, and the abscesses were cut clear away.

The nurse cleaned the place where they had been. But you must let us unite these broken parts and put in silver tubes, and we know that your husband will be all right after that, and it need not interfere with your faith at all. No man shall touch him now. And that man is well and strong today. I can give his name and address to any who want it. Do you ask by what power this was done? The Holy Spirit, who inspired the Word, is called the Spirit of Truth, and, as we receive with meekness the engrafted Word, faith springs in our heart-faith in the sacrifice of Calvary: God has chosen us to help one another.
We dare not be independent. He brings us to a place where we submit ourselves to one another. If we refuse to do this, we get away from the Word of God and out of the place of faith. I have been in this place once and I trust I shall never be there again.

I went one time to a meeting. I was very, very sick, and I got worse and worse. I knew the perfect will of God was for me to humble myself and ask the elders to pray for me. I put it off and the meeting finished. I went home without being anointed and prayed with, and everyone in the house caught the thing I was suffering with. The whole thing is from me. I shall have to repent and ask the Lord to forgive me. Please enter your card information below: WeAreWorship is a global community of worshippers.
