This name of God inspires courage, determination, and focus in my heart. Mentioned in Exodus 17:15, it is a reference dealing with war.
That confused me at first. How can I find things that deal with today when I’m talking about aspects of a battle that happened 4000 plus years ago?
Oh yes, they are there!
A couple of weeks ago, Jehovah Rapha took center spot at Faith~Driven Fiction. The Exodus 15:26 verse is an instruction to God’s people that if they listen and obey His instructions, they’ll never have to worry about the diseases that the Egyptians had to deal with. Just like God healed the bitter water in Exodus 15, He declared Himself as the “Healer.”
So I started looking into that word; how and where it’s used in scripture.
I hope you’re enjoying this series as much as I am. Digging into the character of the Lord we serve has been both exciting and eye-opening. So far, we’ve discussed the names of God:
