DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

A.B. Simpson emphasizes the importance of trusting God not only for
spiritual salvation but also for physical healing and daily needs. He
argues that true faith must be practical and applicable to our present
circumstances, allowing us to experience God's divine power in our
lives. Simpson challenges believers to recognize God as the ultimate
source of healing and provision, urging them to transform their trials
into blessings through faith. He highlights the significance of
understanding Jehovah-rophi, the Lord who heals, and encourages a deeper
reliance on God in all aspects of life.

It is very reasonable that God should expect us to trust Him for our
bodies as well as our souls. If our faith is not practical enough to
bring us temporal relief, how can we be schooled to depend upon God for
anything that involves serious risk? It is all very well to talk about
trusting God for the distant and future prospect of salvation after
death. There is scarcely a sinner in a Christian land who does not trust
to be saved some day, but there is no grasp in faith like this.

It is only when we come face to face with positive issues and
overwhelming forces that we can prove the reality of divine power in a
supernatural life.

As an education to our spirits as well as a gracious provision for our
temporal bodies, God has always trained His people to recognize Him as
the supply of all their needs, and to look to Him as the Physician of
their bodies and the Father of their spirits. Have we learned the
meaning of Jehovah-rophi? (see Exodus 15:23-27). Has it changed our
Marah of trial into an Elim of blessing and praise?
