God's titles give us assurances of what we can get from Him. For example, one of His titles is found in Exodus 15:26 where He said, "...I am the Lord that healeth thee." This gives believers an assurance that no matter how terrible a sickness is, Jehovah Rapha can heal them.

Medical doctors have different areas of specialisation, and it is standard practice for a doctor to refer patients to other doctors who are considered more knowledgeable and qualified to handle certain ailments. This was what happened to the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5:25-34, Doctors kept referring her to other doctors until she had spent all that she had. One day, however, she came in contact with the Great Physician- the One who never refers a case- and that day, she got her healing.

Jesus Christ secured your healing when he was severely beaten and crucified (Isaiah 53:5). He took the stripes from the Roman soldiers so that you can confidently say that sickness and pain have no place in your body. He took your infirmities with Him to the grave; this means that they are gone forever.

Henceforth, I want you to know God as the God that heals you. When you read passages like Matthew 8:16 or Luke 6:19, you will see that Jesus Christ healed aLL that came to Him. There was no sickness that was difficult for Him to heal, and there was no person with too many sicknesses that He couldn't heal. If you have been dealing with any sickness or disease in your body, approach the Great Physician, He will surely heal you completely.

You must note however, that healing is the bread of God's children (Mark 7:24-29). If you are not a child of God, or if you are professing to be a Christian but you are still living in sin, do not expect healing, from Him. If God heals an unbeliever or a Christian who is not living holy, it is because He wants such a fellow to let go of the sins in his or her life. If the fellow does not repent and forsake his or her sins, it is very likely that a worse sickness will come upon the fellow. This was the warning that Jesus gave the man He healed at the pool of Bethesda in John 5:14.

Beloved, your healing has already been provided by Jesus. Surrender yourself completely to Him and walk in this divine right; He is the One that heals you.


King James Version

Mark 1:29-45

And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. [30] But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her. [31] And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them. [32] And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils. [33] And all the city was gathered together at the door. [34] And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him. [35] And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. [36] And Simon and they that were with him followed after him. [37] And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee. [38] And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth. [39] And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils. [40] And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. [41] And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. [42] And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed. [43] And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away; [44] And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. [45] But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
RCCG Hymn

The great Physician now is near

  1. The great Physician now is near.
    The sympathising Jesus;
    He speaks the drooping heart to cheer.
    Oh, hear the voice of Jesus.

    2. Sweetest note in seraph song
    Sweetest name on mortal tongue
    Sweetest carol ever sung
    Jesus, Blessed Jesus.


  2. Your many sins are all forgiven.
    Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
    Go on your way in peace to heaven.
    And wear a crown with Jesus.
  3. All glory to the dying lamb!
    I now believe in Jesus;
    I love the blessed Saviour's name,
    I love the name of Jesus.
  4. His name dispels my guilt and fear.
    No other name but Jesus
    Oh! how my soul delights to hear
    The precious name of Jesus.
