Is Healing God’s will for all of us?
When Jesus began his ministry, He was revealing and doing the will of God for all people… He was fulfilling prophesy and fulfilling the scriptures through His healing miracles.
(When the evening came, they brought to him many that were possessed with Devils: and He cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bore our sicknesses. Matthew 8:16-17).
And if it was God’s will to heal all when Jesus came into His ministry; “low, I come, to do your will, oh God” Hebrews 10:7, and if it is true that ;”Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) then it must also be true that it is still God’s will for Jesus to heal us All today.
F.F. Bosworth writes in his book Christ the Healer “Perhaps no one could be more conservative than the scholars of the Episcopalian church. Yet, the commission appointed to study the subject of spiritual healing for the body, after three years of study and research in both the Bible and in history, reported back to the church; the healing of Jesus was done as a revelation of God’s will for humanity. Because they discovered that his will is fully revealed they reported further: no longer can the church pray for the sick with that faith-destroying phrase, “if it be your will”. ”
Brothers and sisters Satan is a liar: This is true….the Bible says so and Jesus said so. He has been deceiving the world since Adam and Eve and causing us to doubt Gods word, since that very day mankind fell when He asked Eve “Did God actually say?…surely you will not die!”
I believe today, many of us are equally deceived when Satan says things to us like ”Did God surely mean those things for All of us?…. surely God’s healing power was for generations past…. Surely God meant for our future in heaven when Isaiah said “By his stripes you will be healed” right?
Well, I say “surely Satan is a liar, who destroys and who does everything he can to deny us of God’s goodness and God’s truths found in His word. Satan has never delivered a single promise within his lies, yet God has never broken a promise within His word….so who should we believe? Where do we place our faith? In God, or in the doubts born of a liar and our accuser?
When God said to the Israelites in the desert “I am the Lord who heals you” they believed him and 3 million were healed.
Today thousands are still being healed by God through the power of Jesus. Just do a search on Google to see some amazing stories of how the power of God is healing day in and day out. I was so excited with the stories I found, that I created a site to post some of those amazing stories at; www.documentedhealings.com and Deamanwalks.com
So doesn’t it make sense that if “God shows no partiality and is no respecter of persons,” as the Bible says in Acts 10:34 then doesn’t it make sense that maybe it’s our own doubts that stand in the way between us and greater healing from God? I have experienced some amazing healing in my own life, but oh how my spirit cries out for more through that greater faith to overcome ALL doubts.
I like what FF Bosworth said;
“Don’t doubt God. If you must doubt something, doubt your doubts, because they are unreliable; but never doubt God, nor his word.” I say Amen to that!!!!
Well friends, that’s my prayer each day for all of us…. “Holy Spirit, crucify all our doubts that they may die, be buried, and resurrected with the full revelation of the Glory of Jesus! Let us believe every word from the mouth of God that it may not return to Him empty and void…..”Matt 21:21 And Jesus answered them…….22 whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.” Oh Lord, crush our doubts, place them under our feet, and let your word reign true now and forever, AMEN! by Scott L
You asked “What do you think?” I think you are a man after God’s own heart. God is all FOR healing and divine health. He is perfect and THEREFORE he is able and willing to give you perfection in everything that matters. Health, sanity and salvation certainly do matter to Him.
I think this is the truth, nice work Scott
we need more churches who believe in healing, and are operating in it……
I’m in a church that doesn’t believe God heals today. They also believe tongues isn’t for today either. I applied for membership, was accepted and had to withdraw my membership because, after the fact, they wanted me to sign a contract. (A covenant) is how they put it. All this other nonbelief I found out later. I’ve been a Christian for decades and I feel rather silly that I didn’t know people thought things like this. I believe what the Bible says from cover to cover. Never thought anyone would differ from this. I’m disappointed, I guess. I’m trying to do what God wants.
Thanks for this article. It helps confirm what God already has said.
