The starting point to receiving healing is hearing the Word of God that encourages faith in God’s healing.
Does God want me well or sick? To hear some talk they imply that it is God’s will for them to endure sickness. We often think and say things to comfort ourselves when we do not understand what is going on. We make things up to feel better. Frequent comments are: “God is using this sickness for greater profit;” “God has a purpose for everything that happens;” “If it is God’s will you will be healed.” However, the immediate relief that such popular clichés may provide is often minuscule in comparison to the damage caused in the end − that of doubting God’s love, purposes, and integrity. That which was intended to be a blessing may end up an eternal curse.
Man’s beginning was Paradise wherein he enjoyed perfectly healthy bodies and minds intended to last forever. The believer’s destiny in the end is to return to Paradise with its eternal glory. Yahweh’s resolve for humankind’s eternal wellbeing has never altered even though the circumstances have drastically changed. The understanding of the big picture, the eternal plan should convince us that Yahweh wants His people to be healthy and blessed in every way.
The very design of the human body tells us the Creator desires wellness for His people. The body heals itself. Quit smoking, and the lungs that are today black and dying will rejuvenate and heal. Eliminate the cause, and the body heals itself.
Exodus 15:26 – “I, Yahweh, am your healer.” The relationship He desired to have with Israel was such where He would be their healer as they obeyed His voice.
Exodus 23:25 and 26 – I will remove sickness from your midst.
Deuteronomy 7:12-15 – Yahweh will remove from you all sickness.
Psalms 91:9-16 – With a long life, I will satisfy him.
Psalms 103:1-5 He pardons all your iniquities and heals all our diseases.
Psalms 107:19 and 20 – He sent His word and healed them.
John 4:34; 6:38 Jesus always did the will of his Father. Jesus healed many people.
Matthew 8:1-3 – Faith destroying words that are often spoken = “If it be Your will.” Thinking such as this eliminates faith in God to heal and any responsibility on our part to take godly action. We become fatalists.
Luke 4:40 He healed all that were sick
Matthew 4:23-25; 9:35 – 10:1; 12:15; 14:14, 34-36; Acts 10:38
