HEALING IS FROM GOD. THE BODY IS ENDOWED WITH CERTAIN PROPERTIES THAT CAUSE HEALING. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN PRACTICAL MEASURES AND HELPS ARE NEEDED TO ENABLE THE BODY TO EXPERIENCE WELL BEING. THERE ARE ALSO MIRACULOUS HEALINGS IN WHICH THE POWER OF GOD IS EXPERIENCED. IN THE ATONING WORK OF JESUS PHYSICAL HEALING IS PROVIDED (1 PETER 2: 24) AS WELL AS SALVATION FOR OUR SOULS.

WHEN JESUS WAS HERE ON EARTH HE OFTEN HEALED PEOPLE. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS HE ASKED THEM IF THEY BELIEVED. THERE WERE OCCASIONS WHEN THE INDIVIDUALS SAID, “YES, LORD”; AND HE RESPONDED BY SAYING, “ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH BE IT UNTO YOU” (MATTHEW 9: 27 – 29). JESUS WENT ABOUT IN THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST “DOING GOOD, AND HEALING ALL THAT WERE OPPRESSED OF THE DEVIL.” (ACTS 10: 38).

JESUS TOLD HIS DISCIPLES AND FOLLOWERS THAT THEY COULD DO EVEN GREATER THINGS AS SIGNS WOULD FOLLOW (MARK 16: 17, 18). WE CAN BELIEVE GOD FOR HEALING THAT COMES ABOUT AS A PROCESS, BUT ALSO FOR HEALING THAT IS MIRACULOUS AND INSTANTANEOUS. MANY PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE REALITY OF THIS.

HAVE FAITH IN GOD. HE HAS COMPLETE AUTHORITY OVER SICKNESS AND DISEASE, AND AS WE RELEASE OUR FAITH WE CAN RECEIVE HEALING POWER FROM GOD. JESUS OFTEN SAID, “THY FAITH HATH MADE THEE WHOLE.” (MARK 5: 34: 10: 52; LUKE 17:19)
