Healings!

This weekend was amazing! We had three services and we experienced healings in each service. I believe healings will occur in every service from now on.

Jehovah Rophe is the Lord Our Healer. In Exodus 15:26, God says, "I am the One who heals you." This is a translation of the name Jehovah Rophe. This is a name the Lord gave Himself. This is a revelation that was given in the Old Testament, yet some people do not think that one of His names any longer. I can tell you from first hand experience that His name is still Jehovah Rophe. He never changes.

Our first service was on Friday night. This is our once a month service called Rain. The focus of the Rain services is worship with ministry ranging from the prophetic to healing. A lady from our church was healed of a vicious stomach ulcer. She had received healing for this about a week before, but it came back strong. Now she is walking in complete health. My family had lunch with her on Sunday and she was able to eat things that she had not been able to eat for a while because of the ulcer. God is so good.

I also prayed for a man who had his leg crushed in a work accident a year ago. He's still having major complications and probably will the rest of his life without the Lord's help. He's been prayed for several times in the past, but tonight was different. I saw three angels circling him and reaching into bags of healing and sprinkling him with the contents. As we began to pray, I noticed the angels were focusing on his heart and not on his leg. We prayed for healing of the heart. He is normally a joyful man, but this injury and beaten down his spirits and he has been depressed. We also prayed for his mind. An idle mind is always attacked by satan and his minions. We set him free of that bondage and filled him with thoughts of faith, hope and love. "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." 2 Corinthians 10:4-5

One of the angels took something from his mind and heart and flew away. We all rejoiced as our brother felt relief and the peace of the Lord. We moved onto the leg. We prayed for a while and found that God was delivering him of pain. He felt his entire leg burn with the heat of the Spirit. I saw the second angel leave with the pain. He still felt pain afterwards, but admitted that it was less pain.

Another person praying with us heard the third angel say, "Mountain be moved. I see healings all of the time. This ain't no thang." We believe the third angel was there to give confidence to our brother. We stopped praying because he was becoming exhausted. We believe that God will heal him completely. We are waiting on His next move.

On Sunday morning, God was powerfully moving. This was Pentecost Sunday and the Spirit of the Lord was strong. A man in our church hurt his shoulder a few months back shoveling snow. He has had pore range of motion since. He felt the presence of the Lord during worship and regained complete range of motion in his shoulder and all of the pain had disappeared! Worthy is the Lamb!

On Sunday evening, the Lord was present to heal at our Harp and Bowl service. This is a service devoted to prayer and worship. God was strong and brought me healing for hemorrhoids. We had a powerful night.

Outside of the services, I am aware of at least two more healings. My brother-in-law was running sound at our worship practice on Saturday morning. He was having an allergic attack that was making his eyes tear up in a way that was hindering his vision. We said a quick prayer and instantly he felt relief and didn't have any more problems. We are praying that this was not just a healing for that moment, but a complete healing that will set him free from the tyranny of allergies completely.

On a similar note came when my family was eating at a friends house (the lady who was healed of the ulcer and her husband). We got there and I instantly noticed that they have two cats, which I am allergic to. I went to the bathroom and prayed a healing over me once and for all. I know that as time goes on, I'll be invited to people's homes and I don't want to turn them down just because they have a cat. I cast out the allergy and prayed that my sinus' would work properly. I prayed the the histamines in my body would not be irritated and that they would work properly. We were at their house for a couple of hours and I never had one problem. I am also believing that this wasn't a one time thing, but a complete healing.

The Lord is good and He is still Jehovah Rophe. He always has been and He will be until we no longer need healed. Praise the Lord!
