Lesson learned from passages Jehovah Rapha:
1 God's people were complaining the waters were bitter; God will remove the bitterness and make life sweet if we will trust in His abilities to bring wholeness and soundness to our deepest wounds.
2 God's desire for His people to walk in health and wholeness has never been hidden. The scriptures are replete with God’s stated desire.
3 God’s desire is for us to be healed and whole spirit, soul, and body.
4 There is a key to deliverance; blessing the Lord and forgetting not His benefits. Remember the greatness of our God

Jesus is revealed in being our Jehovah Rapha :
Isaiah 53:5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.
Matthew 8:14 Now when Jesus had come into Peter's house, He saw his wife's mother lying sick with a fever. 15 So He touched her hand, and the fever left her. And she arose and served them. 16 When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, 17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying: "He Himself took our infirmities And bore our sicknesses."

1 Peter 2:22 "Who committed no sin, Nor was deceit found in His mouth"; 23 who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; 24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness; by whose stripes you were healed.
-
Lesson learned from knowing Jesus as our healer Jehovah Rapha:
1 The wrath of the Father was poured out upon Jesus that you may walk in righteousness. (Righteousness: is being brought into right relationship with God exclusively upon our faith in the atoning work of Jesus Christ alone.) By Jesus' stripes you were healed!
2 The desire of God is revealed in Jesus Christ; Jesus healed all who were sick and at the cross bore our sin and sickness.
3 The punishment for our peace was upon Jesus! Healing can only be appropriated by faith in the work Jesus did at the cross.
4 Jesus earned wholeness for the whole man spirit, soul, and body!
