Should all be healed? Did God ever heal all? Yes The Scriptures that follow prove this. Psalm 105:37....there was none feeble among His tribes. How many were in the tribes? Exodus 12:37-38.... six hundred thousand men on foot, besides children. A mixes multitude...(Plus women.) Matthew 8:16.... they brought to Him many...And He healed all who were sick. Matthew 12:15.... great multitudes followed Him,and He healed them all. All individual cases who came to Jesus were healed. On one occasion, when He visited His home town, the healings were not mighty and were few. But nevertheless, Jesus healed those who did come and did believe. Acts 5:16.... a multitude gathered...and they were all healed. Would the Lord change and not heal as He did in the Bible days? No! Malachi 3:6 For I am the Lord, I do not change... Exodus 15:26.... For I am the Lord Who heals you. These seven steps will strengthen your faith: FIRST STEP James 4:7....submit to God How? As a child. Mark 10:15.... receive the kimgdom of God as a little child. Psalm 100:1-5 The Lord wants us to come to Him joyfully, with gladness and singing; knowing the Lord is God. Be thankful, praising God and blessing His Holy name. 1 Peter 5:5-6.... be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. As a child, don't be proud. Why? Proverbs 16:18.... Pride goes before destruction... Proverbs 6:16-17.... seven (things) are an abomination to Him: A proud look... See? Pride is at the top of God's abomination list! Isaiah 14:12-14 How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer...you have said in your heart...I will exalt my throne.... Lucifer became proud and fell. Matthew 16:15-23 Peter received spiritual revelation of Who Jesus was. He then became so proud that he rebuked Jesus. Jesus calls Peter SATAN. Job 41:34.... He is king over all the children of pride. Satan is king over all the children of pride. Don't keep pride. Spit it out ! Come as a little child who has no pride. A child is not set in his ways or tradition. Mark 7:13 Making the Word of God of no effect through your tradition... Get rid of your tradition. Don't say, "This is what I believe, and nothing can change me." Instead, be open and teachable and be blessed. SECOND STEP Forgive Forgive all others. Judge not. Grudge not. Cast all your cares over to the Lord. Genesis 3:12.... The women whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate. Adam blamed God for Eve. Don't judge or blame God. If you have, repent and confess it to God. Don't have unforgiveness toward God Matthew 6:14 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly father will also forgive you. Mark 11;25.... if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. Jesus forgave even from the torture of the cross... THIRD STEP Ask forgiveness of your sins. Acts 3:19 Repent.... that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Luke 5:20-25 The man lowered through the roof had his sins forgiven and he was healed. James 5:15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up, And if he has committed sins, he will be forgive. FOURTH STEP Commit or recommit your life to Jesus. John 3:16 Therfore , if anyone is in Messiah he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold , all things have become new.-You are a new person when you receive Jesus as your Lord, Savior and Messiah. All your sins have been wiped out. 2 Corinthians 5:17 therefore, if anyone is in Messiah, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.--You are a new person when you receive Jesus as your Lord, Savior and Messiah. All your sins have been wiped out. Hebrews 12:24 To Jesus the Mediator of the new convenant, and to be blood of sprinkling that speaks better of things than that of Abel.--The blood of Jesus cleanses us of all sin. Galatians 3:13 Messiah has redeemed us from the curse of the law...( any sickness or disease ). Also, submit to Jesus as your Healer, as your Doctor above all doctors! Trust God's Word above man's word. Even your doctor. Was Jesus assigned to be the Healer? Yes: Exodus 15:15 .... I am the Lord Who heals you. Exodus 23:25.... I will take sickness away from the midst of you. Isaiah 48:12,16 I am He, I am the First, I am also the Last.... the Lord God and His Spirit have sent Me. Who is the First and the Last? Revelation 1:8 ( Jesus is speaking ) I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. FIFTH STEP We are told to "Ask". Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given to you.... How do we ask? Ask of the Father in the name of Jesus. John 14:14 If you ask anything, I will do it. Also, we must believe. Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing you receive. How else do we ask? We must abide. ( Live in Him .) John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. SIXTH STEP Thank the Lord Psalm 100:4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Luke 17:15-16, 19 One of the ten lepers cleaned by Jesus turned back glorifing God, gave thanks and was made whole! Ephesians 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things.... SEVENTH STEP Resit the devil. Ephesians 6:11-18 Put on the whole armor of God. Luke 10-19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.--This is incredible power that God has given us. A born-again Christian believer has tremendous power over Satan! Dare to use it in faith! Hebrews 4:12 Speak and use God's Word, the two-edged sword. It can be used for defense or attack. But you must speak it! James 4:7-8 ....submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.. . Psalm 103:1,3 Bless the Lord...Who heals all your diseases. Psalm 34:19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Messiah is the same yesterday, today, and forever. James 1:17 Every good gift.... comes down from the Father....with whom there is no variation... Would the Lord discriminate or respect one person over another? No! Romans 2:11 For there is no partiality with God. The Lord will heal all today as He did yesterday! How can we encourage people to believe this simple fact and receive their healing? Where are most people missing the mark today? Over the years, the Lord has taught us the following with regard to His healing: All. Sickness is of the devil. Healing and health are of God: John10:10 The theif does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy... Acts 10:38... Jesus.... who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil. 1 John 3:8....(Jesus came) .... that He might destroy the works of the devil. How do we get out of the devil's sickness and into God's healing and continued good health? "By following God's prescriptions in the Bible, God may and does heal; God heals his people even though some may lack Bible knowledge or perhaps any previous Bible teaching." Some have been healed on the way to a service, as they came in the door, or as they were just sitting in their seat hearing the Word. Some receive healing while standing in the prayer line, the parking lot, on the way home, or any time later. However, most people receive their miracle by following the Word, following God's prescriptions. Jeremiah 29:13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. Seek God with all your heart. Do not be luke-warm or half-hearted. You have to mean business with the Lord and trust Him. Allow the Holy Spirit to teach you. How? By being in submission to Him! FAITH--Does faith have anything to do with getting healed?Yes! Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him ( God ), for he who comes to God must believe that He is (is God), and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrew 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. See? Faith is in the now realm. It's when you pray that you must believe, before it happens, otherwise it's not faith. How can we get faith? Romans 10:17 Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word would say... Always, when Jesus saw the faith of the individual, He would say... Be of good....your faith has made you well.(MATTHEW 9:22) ....according to your faith let it be to you. (MATTHEW 9:29) Go your way; your faith has made you whole (MARK 10:52) Arise. Go your way. Your faith has made you well. (LUKE 17:19) How much faith is needed? Not a gigantic amount. A mustard seed is the smallest seed. Listen to Jesus incredible statement which gives you sufficient starting faith: If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree (the problem),"Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,' and it would obey you. (LUKE17:6) Resist the sickness or problem. It's of the devil and it cannot stay. It must flee. Then stand on God's Word so the problem will not come you the second time. Do not allow unbelief or negative thoughts to cancel your faith and thereby cancel your healing. NAHUM 1:9 ....Affliction will not rise up a second time. |
