HEALING

From Genesis through Revelation, God laid the foundation for our promise of Healing.  When God created the earth there was no sickness. 

"Genesis 1:26-28: God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created be him; male and female created be them.  And God blessed them." 

The Bible goes on to say that "Genesis 1:31: God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good." 

When God created Adam there was no sickness on earth.  Sickness entered the earth through man's transgression and rebellion against God.  Sin invaded the souls of Adam and Eve, and the result of the sins was sorrow. 

God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins.  Jesus' death on the cross of Calvary not only brings salvation to our souls, but it also removes our sickness, sorrow and pain. 

"Romans 5:12: Wherefore as by one man sin entered in to the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.   

"Romans 6:6-10: Knowing this that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed that henceforth we should not serve sin.  For be that is dead is freed from sin.  Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.  Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.  For in that be died, he died unto sin once; but in the he liveth, he liveth unto God." 

Jesus has provided for our spiritual and physical deliverance from the influence of world.  There is no transgression in Him, and we are alive in Christ Jesus.'[ 

"Galatians 2:20: I am crucified with Christ; nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Sons of God, who live me, and gave himself for me." 

Forgiveness and healing are found in Christ Jesus.  Jesus came to heal the sick.  He is still healing the sick today.  In Luke Jesus said: "Luke 4:18-19:  The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor; he hath sent to heal the broken hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovering sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord." 

Divine health and healing are promised to you over and over in God's precious word.  The Bible is strong and true.  Hold on to God's promise by faith for as you do, God will surely intervene and make a way where there may seem to be no way for you. 

God is and has always been the Healer.  God said, "Exodus 15:26: I am the Lord that health thee."  It is His will for you to live in divine health.  What ever you are facing today, the God of miracles is able to perfect all the concerns you.  You can trust Him to restore your Health and renew your youth. 

Literally, take your requests to the Lord.  Don't hesitate to say "Lord, here is the need I am bringing to you today."  He knows our petitions before we even ask, yet God is waiting to hear the cry of our heart. 

How do you experience God's overflow?  The key is simply to come to Jesus.  Peter understood this and that is why the anointing was so great upon his life that his very shadow carried God's healing presence. 

God's promise is to keep us just as He kept the Israelites of old.  We are sustained by the Lord.  It is God, our heavenly father, who gives us life and breath.  We must look to Him for wellness, for our well-being is not found in bread alone, but through having a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus. 

The cross of Christ brings healing.  He was wounded for our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities and with His stripes we are healed. 

Your victory and recovery must begin internally; within your heart praised to God must be the foundation.  All transformation is internal, first and foremost.  Then the change becomes apparent externally, as well.  When you think about it, it make sense that all change must come from inside, not from mere external actions. 

If you have received your long-awaited miracle, your Heart is overflowing with gratitude because of God's healing touch and His love and mercy toward you.  As you rejoice at the health and strength that God gives, it's important to realize this faith and prayer were an integral part of gaining your miracle, and they are equally important to sustaining and keeping it. 

Healing comes when we continually see the work that Jesus did on the cross, when we continually took to Him today and everyday for our health and healing deliverance.  Only then will healing come. 

When you are in the right location (alone with God), the right position (under the blood), and the right condition (a prepared, pure heart), God's stands ready to honor your prayers with His presence and power. 

The Lord is asking us to come into the outer court to make our requests known and to receive from His giving, loving hands.  He is asking us to come into the Holy place, seeking Him until we find Him.  And He wants us to come into the Holy of Holies, interceding for others, where we will find Him able to save to the uttermost. 

Jesus is our health and healing; when He comes healing always come.  God Almighty has promised us divine health, which is better than divine healing.  That's the promise of God.  The Bible says: "I wish above all things that your prosper and be in health as thy soul prospereth".  God's divine desire is for His people to prosper and be in health.  The source of all healing is Jesus.

You, too will experience God's power as you call on Him in your time of anguish and fear, for you will find Him to be your shield and the lifter of your Head.  And as you seek Him, He will fill you with His peace and cause your sleep to be sweet as He holds you in His arms and sustains you.  The glorious power of prayer, truly great peace belongs to those who know how to call upon the Lord. 

God said, I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds".  Receive that promise today in Jesus' mighty name. 

As you flourish in the house of the Lord, you will experience a healing river.  The Lord wants to bring you into recovery that washes over you and brings total restoration to your life.  In the Lord you can rest; His peace and loving care surround.  "Psalm 23:2-3: He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters, He restoreth my soul". 

All God needs is a surrendered container, someone who is willing to surrender and follow His call.  We would realize, alongside Thomas, that the hands, feet, and body of the crucified Christ were offered as a sacrifice that we might fall at His feet and say "my Lord and my God".  The moment you apply the blood of Jesus to you and your family, the plagues cannot come.  The destroyer cannot touch you.  With the blood of Jesus comes protection and power.  With the blood sprinkled freely come hope, faith, love and strength to serve Him daily.  Only the blood of Jesus can save you, heal you, and keep you. 

You can gain victory, you can say, with God's help I can overcome.  God promises to help you overcome whatever you face as you seek His direction.  God is your redeemer and He will help you.  The Lord is with you.  God has ordained that you recover all, be victorious and be more than a conqueror. 

Divine health was God's perfect will for man.  Divine Health is better than divine healing, for it is for better to always enjoy health than to have health restored after years of suffering and pain.  Yet we must thank God than health and healing are part of our inheritance as His children.  Isaiah 53 declares that because God sent His son no sickness has any legal right over you.  As you grasp the depth of this truth, you will experience the reality of your inheritance in Christ as it relates to your health and healing. 

How do you experience God's over flow?  The answer is simply "come to Jesus".  You may say, "Well that is fine for spiritual matters, but how does that apply to my physical health?  Can I experience such wholeness in Christ Jesus that I lack nothing?  There is no lack in Jesus.  He does not have health.  He is health.  He does not have healing, He is healing.  All that you need is found in Him. 

Just as it was in Jesus' day when signs and wonders and miracles were beheld, so it is today.  Miracles still happen, blind eyes still receive sight, deaf ears still begin to hear, and the crippled and the lame still leap to their feet and walk.  The immutability of God's character is certain.  Whether a miracle takes place instantaneously or over time, God does heal yesterday, today and forever. 

Total recovery can be yours; yes we still live in bodies that will corrupt.  We have not yet put on immortality so we must still fight sin.  The difference is that once we are born again, we are no longer in bondage or slavery to sin.  Thank God for the blood of Christ, our ever cleansing fountain. 

Fear is one of Satan's most formidable weapons, one that he often uses.  If Satan tries to use fear as a weapon against you to steal your miracle, remember identify your enemy and resist him.  According to God's word, you are to call upon God and tell Him what you are going through.  "Psalm 34:4 says: I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears". 

As we remember the Lord each day, He sustains us, strengthening our bodies for His service and good will.  God causes us to thrive and experience divine preservation as we acknowledge Him.  And as we submit to His guidance, conform to His image, and walk faithful to His will, we will bear fruit in vibrancy and strength.  We become vessels of honor to serve Him. 

The Lord is about to do something mighty in your life, and all you must do is call upon His name.  As you do, His anointing will flow down as fresh oil.  God's promise is that your dry, parched ground shall become a pool of water. 

God's people should be a healthy people.  His word has given us guidelines to follow which show us how to find health, healing and renewal in every area of our lives.  It is God's will for us to be whole in body.  But it is our responsibility to take care of ourselves and lead healthy life styles. 

There are many marvelous passages in God's word that establish the fact that God has promised restoration and abundance.  Recovery is not something for which we merely hope.  It is the promise of God.  That means you regain all that has been stolen from you through the eternal work of the One with the name above every name, the Lord Jesus.  Through Him you regain your strength, are restored to health and rescued from destruction, become established in God's kingdom and are made new. 

God's grace is sufficient for you, and His strength is made perfect in your weakness.  In His presence you will find all that you will ever need.  What is strength?  It is the capacity for endurance and the power to resist a force or attack.  God will strengthen your life with His anointing and take you from one high point to the next, from weakness to great strength, from lack to great abundance from passivity to power.  God has commanded your strength, "Psalm 68:28: Thy God hath commanded thy strength; strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us". 

Through varied opinions and perspectives exist on this age old question of God's ability to heal, one final authority prevails, the word of God.  I believe that the scriptures tell us clearly that it is God's will to heal His children and that it is His desire for you to enjoy the blessings of divine health and to experience the blessings of His healing touch.  Our loving Heavenly Father wants you to be well and to enjoy health and life in its fullness.  His promise to us for healing and health is the same today as it was to every generation in the past. 

Whenever God forgives you, He wants to heal you as well.  Te only problem is that many only accepts the forgiveness of sins and not the healing.  If we are under a double curse, sin and sickness, we must accept the double cure, forgiveness and healing.  The goal of the enemy is to steal what God has given to us as His children.  Each day walk in the victory of your healing.  Live a life filled with health, strength and victory. 

Our Father desires to spend time with us now as preparation for an eternity together with Him.  He wants to be involved in everything we do.  He desires to guide our steps.  He cared enough offer His only begotten Son's life as a sacrifice for the purpose of saving our souls and revealing His will to us. 

Faith does not deny fact, it changes it.  Faith is vital to your miracle; prayer does not produce faith, for God's word states that: "Romans 10:17 Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God".  Faith for healing comes by hearing the word of God in scriptures like "Mathew 8:17: Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sickness".  Healing is received and kept by faith.  You must allow God's word to continually wash over your spirit.  So that faith can grow.  The truth of this is what brings life and liberty, what sets us free and keeps us free. 

Continue to see yourself well and whole, healed in Jesus' name.  Experience the rich inheritance that is yours through Jesus Christ.  Learn what God's word promises and stand on those promises.  Say good bye to doubt and unbelief.  Trust the God who healed you to keep you today and every day. 

The Bible states that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.  "1 Corinthians 3:16-17: know you not that ye are the temple of God, and that the spirit of God dwelleth in you?  If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple you are".  You are its caretaker.  It is your responsibility to take care of your physical body as the temple of God.  Be a God caretaker of God's temple and don't allow your miracle and the riches of divine health to be stolen from you.

The greatest miracle takes place when a lost soul recognizes that hope lessness of his or her eternal state without God and cries out for mercy.  As you come to know forgiveness and the glorious, saving grace of Jesus Christ, the greatest miracle occurs.  Jesus Christ loves you so much that He gave His life for you by dying on the cross.  If you have never asked the Lord Jesus to forgive your sins and invited Him into your heart, do so today and experience that greatest miracle available to mankind. 

Are you thirsty today?  Do you need a touch from heaven?  Do you want a greater anointing upon your life?  Jesus said "John 7:37: If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink".  Jesus is the source.  He alone can fill your life with all the fullness of God.  As you go to the Lord is prayer today, your fellowship with God will increase, and He will draw you into a deeper, closer, and greater walk with Him, anointing you with a power that will help you live a life of total recovery.

PRAISE THE LORD
