Under the Shadow of His Wings

But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings… -Malachi 4:2

One day I was meditating on the Word, when suddenly Malachi 4:2 rose up in me. “But to you who fear My name shall arise with healing in his wings.” Who is the “Sun of righteousness”? Jesus! When I read this, I thought, Glory to God!! He arose with healing in His wings! Then I asked, “Lord, why is healing in His wings and how do I get under those wings?”

I remembered Psalm 91:1-4 AMP

He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]. I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust!

For [then] He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. [Then] He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings shall you trust and find refuge.

You find refuge under God’s wings when you say, “Thank God for Jesus! He’s my refuge, my fortress, my healer and my Savior.” Once you’re under His wings you’ll find they’re full of healing. All you have to do is reach up and pluck out a couple of those feathers, there are plenty to go around!

Jesus arose with healing in His wings. We can abide in His healing power and find refuge in the shelter of His wings. All we have to do is confess Jesus as our Lord and put ourselves under His protective covering. In that secret place of the Most High, we’re surrounded by healing. We just have to reach out and grab ahold of it.

CONFESSION:

Jesus is my Savior, my God, my healer, my refuge, my fortress. He arose with healing in His wings, and I take refuge under those wings. I put my trust in the Sun of righteousness and His healing power.
