“ADONAI YESHUA – THE LORD OUR SHEPHERD & OUR HEALER”
Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:
“Has Gil‘ad exhausted its healing resin? Is there no physician there? If there is, then why is the daughter of my people so slow to recover her health?” (Jeremiah 8:22)
Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people restored? Because Zion no longer enjoyed the presence of the Great Physician!
Adonai Yahweh declared, If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and will do what is right in His sight, and will listen to and obey His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you which I brought upon the Egyptians, for I am the Lord Who heals you. (Exodus 15:26)
THE LORD IS THE GREAT PHYSICIAN
Gilead was famous for its balsam, which had medicinal properties for treating wounds.
Balm is made from a turpentine tree.
Jesus is the Balm of Gilead because He heals our sickness and diseases. (1Peter 2:24/Isaiah 53:5/Matthew 8:17)
THE LORD IS THE GOOD SHEPHERD
(John 10:11,14)
I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd risks and lays down His own life for the sheep. I am the Good Shepherd; and I know and recognize My own, and My own know and recognize Me.
(Jeremiah 23:4/31:10)
And I will set up shepherds over them who will feed them. And they will fear no more nor be dismayed, neither will any be missing or lost, says the Lord.
The psalmist declared the Lord’s shepherd-hood also. (Psalms 23:1 / 79:13 / 80:1)
Prophet Ezekiel 34:11-17 declares how God deals with His flock:
He searches and seeks for them.
He will deliver them.
He will bring them to the Promised Land.
He will feed them.
He will let them lie down in a good fold.
He will seek for the lost.
He will judge between them.
Christ is the great Shepherd (Hebrews 13:20-21)
Christ is the chief Shepherd (1Peter 5:4).
He laid down His life for the sheep. (Matthew 20:28/Mark 10:45)
Beloved Saint, the Lord is our GREAT PHYSICIAN and our good SHEPHERD. Therefore, He heals all our sicknesses and provides all our needs for His glory.
Everybody shout, “THANK YOU LORD!”
Sabbath shalom and good morning.
