Healing Scriptures
Old Testament
Exodus 15:26
I am the LORD that healeth thee [Jehovah Rapha]. This is the verse where
God reveals Himself as Jehovah Rapha (the Lord who heals you). The Old
Testament was written in Hebrew and Chaldea. In the original Hebrew text, the
Jewish National Name of God “Jehovah” is translated into the English as “LORD”
(all caps). The Hebrew word “rapha” means: “healing, cure, mending, stitching
up, medicine, physician, repair, to be made whole, to invigorate.”
Exodus 23:25-26
Worship the LORD your God, and His blessing will be on your food and
water. I will take away sickness from among you, and none will miscarry or be
barren in your land. I will give you a full life span.

And the LORD will remove from you all sickness.

on high above all nations of the earth:
2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and
overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed
shalt thou be in the field.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the
fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and
the flocks of thy sheep.
5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.
6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and
blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.
7 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up
against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee
one way, and flee before thee seven ways.
8 The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in
thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall
bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto
himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the
LORD thy God, and walk in his ways.
10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou
art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.
11 And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods,
in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of
thy ground, in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
12 The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure,
the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the
work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not
borrow.
13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not
the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that
thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee
this day, to observe and to do them.
Deuteronomy 30:19-20 I call heaven and earth to record this day
against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing:
therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: That thou mayest
love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou
mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that
thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to
Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

bones: “Surely I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.” Then

breath, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “Come from the four winds, O breath, and
breathe on these smitten, that they may live.’” So I prophesied as He commanded

Malachi 4:2
But unto you that fear My Name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with
healing in His wings.
The word “wings” in Malachi 4:2 is, according to
the Hebrew definition, referring to the hem, border, edge of the garment, such
as of the priestly robe or the fringes of a prayer shawl.
In the New Testament, Matthew tells of the account
in Matthew 9:20-22 of a woman who had an issue of blood (hemorrhaging) for 12
years and had spent all she had on doctors and was not any better.
She heard that Jesus was in town. She said to
herself: “If I might just touch the hem of His garment, I shall be made whole.”
She spoke in faith, then took action and pressed
through the crowds. When she made it to Jesus, she touched the hem of His robe
or the prayer shawl He was wearing, and when she did, she was instantly healed
of her affliction. Jesus felt virtue (healing power) go out of him and asked
who touched him.
Then the woman told her whole story to Him and all
those around her ... about how she had suffered with this affliction for 12
years and was only growing worse, she had spent every dime on doctors but was
not any better, but that now she was healed and whole through the power of
Jesus Christ.
Other passages mention that more people were healed
when they touched the hem of Jesus’ garment. See Matthew 14:35-36 and Mark
6:56.
Jesus’ robe signified His Priestly authority. The
priestly garment symbolizes a mantle of the Anointing of the Holy Spirit. He is
our Great High Priest from the Tribe of Judah in the order of Melchizedek
(which is a Heavenly and eternal Priesthood).
The prayer shawl represents being wrapped in all
the promises of God that are legally ours through the Covenant we have with
God. One of those promises is healing
and health.
It is God's will that no one should perish (end up in hell), but that ALL should come to repentance.
For God so loved this world that He gave His only begotton Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God did not send His Son into this world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him would be saved.
The thief (Satan the devil) comes only for to kill, steal and destroy. But Jesus has come to give us life, and life more abundantly, until it overflows.
I urge you to come to the Cross today and receive Jesus as your Savior and Lord. He will wash away all your sins and make you as clean and white as fresh snow.
Just pray this prayer and mean it with your heart:
Dear Lord Jesus (if you are not able to call him Lord yet, then just say "Jesus")
I receive You as my Savior and Lord. I give my life over to You. I believe that You died and rose again, and that if I call on the Name of the Lord I shall be saved.
I accept you into my heart right now, and confess that You are Lord and have risen from the dead and forever live to make intercession for me.
Thank You for washing my heart pure and clean and making me whole, and for giving me peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Thank You that now I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. The old has gone and the new has come.
And there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh (carnality and sin), but walk after the Spirit. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, I believe you got born again and are now heaven bound and will be with the Lord forever and have eternal life. Your sins are now forgiven. You are accepted in the Beloved.
I would encourage you to find a good Bible based local church to help you grow in your faith, to learn the Word of God, to praise and worship Him, and to have fellowship with the saints.
Serving Christ is the best decision you will ever make.
God bless you!!!
