 I believe with all my heart that God is Jehovah Rapha, the Lord who heals! But I think we may be boxing God in when it comes to healing. Maybe He heals in a multi-faceted way and we're not always present for it or aware of it. Here are some ways that I have seen God heal in my own life.

Today, I want to invite you to take a moment to think how El Elyon is not a God too high or too far away, as the name might imply or you may believe.

He is the beginning, he is the end, he is always, our God is infinite.

I have the honor of sharing with you my personal experience with Jehovah-Sabaoth, the Lord of Hosts.

Many of us are ready to acknowledge God as Elohim – a powerful God. Jehovah – eternal and everlasting God. But have a hard time truly giving ourselves to Him as Adonai. Serving him as Adonai requires we give up self-sufficiency and give him total reign over our lives.

The beauty of calling the name of  Jehovah Nissi is that we are asking the Lord to come and be our banner, while we go to battle. We are asking him to let us come alongside him to partner with him.

I can’t express how excited I am that my FIRST Daily is during our holy series entitled “Knowing God”. More than that I get to talk about God, our deliverer.

Our God has a proper name and not one that we gave Him, but one that He revealed to us… out of a desire to be distinct from other gods and in covenantal relationship with His people; therefore, we get to call our God Yahweh.

I challenge you to allow God to renew your mind in how you see Him. We will no longer see him as a God too busy for us or waiting for us to fail. We will see God in the fullness of His love and grace that he freely gives to each of us.

When we believe that God is all-sufficient vs insufficient, that we see Him as El Shaddai, our daily bread, we can walk with our hands open towards generosity in our thoughts towards others and God and rest, knowing that He is enough and He is good.
