Everyone is carrying around some hurts, sore spots in their soul. Untreated wounds leave us with festering sores. Unless your wounds are healed, they can negatively influence your emotional reactions, decisions, behaviors and relationships, and they will limit your choices in life. You may have had a difficult and painful past, you may feel like it is impossible to get healthy and whole, but there is hope: Jesus. Listen to what He said:
“The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind; to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the favorable year of the LORD.” (Luke 4:18-19).
Today is the day of salvation! Simply humble yourself and go to Jesus, asking Him to heal the sore spots in your soul. His healing presence can free you from painful memories and the destructive effects of your wounds.
Jehovah-Rapha is one of the names for God in the Old Testament: Jehovah means Lord or the Existing One, and Rapha to mend, as in stitching up or mending a torn cloth; to cure or cause to be cured; to heal; to repair; to make whole. So when you say, “Jehovah Rapha,” you are saying, “God, the Mender; the One who makes me whole.”
About my website
I call myself a spiritual adventurer, because I chose to learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit. As a result I have experienced many restorative, healing, transformative encounters that brought me into a new place in life.
My journey started in 1970, when a crisis thrust me into a spiritual quest: our child was diagnosed with leukemia. Nothing in life—not my church nor nursing—had prepared me for this. I simply lacked the inner resources to handle this. I had one driving thought, if I could just find a living God then perhaps I can survive the death of my child.
Thankfully, I met someone who showed me the missing ingredient: faith in a God who cannot lie. As soon as faith entered my heart, a light turned on inside me—and it has never been extinguished. In the years since, I’ve learned how to use my faith and to rely on the Holy Spirit in this sometimes perilous adventure.
In 1986, friends asked me to teach them what I had learned. So my life took on greater meaning and purpose as I began to help others become more spiritually alive and whole. Since then, I have ministered to thousands of people in the USA and Europe—really throughout the world, because my European radio program seems to go everywhere these days.
Here on my website you’ll find numerous resources—articles, radio program notes, teaching notes, professional papers, audio recordings, my blog, and of course my books on dreams and forgiveness—that will help you move forward in your spiritual journey.
