Pools of Refreshing

John 5:2, 4 (TPT) Inside the city near the Sheep Gate there is a pool called in Aramaic, The House of Loving Kindness… an angel of God would periodically descend into the pool to stir the waters, and the first one who stepped into the pool after the waters swirled would instantly be healed.

Beloved, step into the pools of refreshing and find healing and rest for your soul. It is vital to stay soft and supple, for if you become dry and brittle it is far easier for you to be damaged or break. Make the time to pause. Rest and refreshing is not “doing nothing,” it is allowing you the time and space you need to stay healthy, alive, and vital. 

Resist the urge to strive or “power through.” You are important enough to pause for, precious enough to tend to, and loved enough to be taken care of. So love yourself, even if at first you only do it because I love you. You are worth it. 

Matthew 9:17 (TPT) And who would pour fresh, new wine into an old wineskin? Eventually the wine will ferment and make the wineskin burst, losing everything—the wine is spilled and the wineskin ruined. Instead, new wine is always poured into a new wineskin so that both are preserved.”

I Understand You Completely

Psalm 139:15 (VOICE) You see all things; nothing about me was hidden from You As I took shape in secret, carefully crafted in the heart of the earth before I was born from its womb.

Beloved, I’ve been with you for each moment of your life, and I’ll be with you for all the remaining ones too. Every memory that has marked you, I’ve experienced with you. And I don’t stand by as an impartial observer at a distance – I AM right there with you. I share tears when moments have been painful, and share joy in times of blessing. I understand you completely, often even when you don’t understand yourself.

I know each trigger you struggle with, and which wound it comes from. I know which wounds have been reinforced time and again, which also means I understand why you struggle with broken patterns that are part of your defense system. I’m not shocked by them, nor do I judge you for them. Rather I stand patiently with you, ready to support and comfort you in times of need (even if there’s many) and ready bring you through to a place of healing (though the process may be long). I love you, and you are worth the effort – so much so that to Me it seems no effort at all because I love you. Continue reading “I Understand You Completely”

Jehovah Rapha (the Lord our Healer)

Exodus 15:26 (NLT) He said, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the LORD who heals you.”

Beloved, I desire for My children to walk in healing and wholeness. For I AM the God of abundant life, and healing and wholeness come from Me alone. Cling fast to the promise of who I AM, and hold tight to Me.

I AM Jehovah Rapha, the Lord your healer is My name. Call on Me to give you strength, and trust Me to give grace. My healing rain is falling down. Behold, I make all things new. Praise the One who gives you life, and hold fast to what is true.

Isaiah 61:3 (TPT) …to give them a beautiful bouquet in the place of ashes, the oil of bliss instead of tears, and the mantle of joyous praise instead of the spirit of heaviness…

Strengthened and Made Whole

Psalm 51:17 (NKJV) The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart—These, O God, You will not despise.

Beloved, when you come to Me with all your precious, broken pieces, I make you whole. So resist the urge to continue seeing yourself as somehow less than what you are, for you are no longer the same. You have changed. By My Spirit you are strengthened and made whole. 

And as you submit your yielded heart to Me, that is an offering most pleasing. And then together, My beloved one, we can be a force as you move in My strength and authority on behalf of the Kingdom. Know who you are in Me.
