With faith come to God in prayer and say, “Lord, in Your Word You said that by Jesus’ stripes I am healed. I believe and I receive my healing from You!”
The same Spirit that had victory over death and raised Jesus from the dead, now lives in everyone who confesses Christ as Savior and believes in Him with all his heart!
Many people have a habit of being sick. They surrender to their sickness, get used to it, expect it and even find an explanation for being sick. People suffer from pain, convinced that it has always been and will always be that way. “I have always had headaches and I always will.” People have become accustomed to their headaches and do not even try to resist their pain. But Jesus has already taken all your diseases on Himself!
Banish your habit of being sick! Believe that Jesus has overcome all the pain and all infirmities. BY HIS WOUNDS YOU ARE HEALED! Only believe and accept the health that Jesus is giving you!
The message of the Gospel is spreading all over the world, but it is sad that not all who accept salvation also believe in healing—even though it is the same thing! In the time of Jesus and his disciples it was as natural to pray for healing as it was to pray for salvation. People believed and were healed!
Do you understand that when Jesus died on the cross He took all your sins and all your sicknesses? The Lord Jesus delivered you from the devil’s captivity and gave you freedom—freedom from any kind of bondage, sickness and disease. Jesus Christ died for all our sins, for all our sicknesses, for all our problems and needs!
So often our circumstances shout, “This is impossible! It’s over! It won’t work! You’re wasting your time!” Sometimes even your closest friends or your spouse would say, “What are you doing? This is stupid! What faith are you talking about? Who is Jesus? Just forget about it!”
At that moment when things are hard; when you feel like you will fail and you want to quit, believe in the Word of God and do not give up!
I believe with all my heart that as children of God, we are entitled to be healthy! I believe that God did not create sicknesses and diseases! Everything that the Lord made was “Very Good”!
Although it is good, it is not necessary for someone to lay hands on you for you to be healed. The truth is, you can pray by yourself and believe in the healing, because the Lord said, “And all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive,” (Matthew 21:22).
The Bible is God’s medicine for you, because by reading the Bible you strengthen your faith. Then as Jesus said, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes,” (Mark 9:23). The Apostle Paul wrote, “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God,” (Romans 10:17). This is why it is so important to read the Bible—to take God’s medicine!
The Bible says that Jesus took our diseases and infirmities upon Himself. If this happened 2,000 years ago, it means I am already healed! You might ask, “How is this possible? I am still in pain! Leslie, you’re saying that I am healed, but I don’t feel healed.”
The fact is that God has already healed us. However, sometimes it takes time to accept your healing. What you must do is believe and expect to start feeling healed!
