The practice of medicine is a blessing of the Lord given to us by God, and I encourage you to pray for your doctor. Pray that he or she would have wisdom in working with you, but remember, we are not to accept the doctors’ report as the final report. Instead, believe the Word of God that proclaims, “By His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).  

There is no condition too difficult for the Lord! Jesus healed every disease and sickness. The scripture promises that gifts of healings are available.

There are multiple gifts and multiple types of healing available for the infirmed. What an encouragement to realize that God has your condition covered!

When Jesus spoke, sickness, disease, poverty and affliction would flee. You and I are in the same structure of authority as Jesus. When we speak, things happen!

In every situation of sickness and disease, we have three witnesses. One of those witnesses is what your senses are telling you about the symptoms you’re experiencing.

The second witnesses is the Word of God. The truth, if you will, that God speaks about your situation.

The pain declares that the sickness and diseases are not healed, the symptoms are still present and that the Word of God is not true.

The third witness that we have is the sick person. And that sick one has the opportunity to place his or her testimony alongside the Word of God and refuse to take the testimony of the pain or the symptoms—declaring that “by the stripes of Jesus, I AM HEALED!”

The Word of God is the truth, the Word is our standard—there is a big difference between the natural facts and the reality that God’s Word is the final truth on the situation!

My confession is an expression of what I am believing in my heart. The Bible tells us in Matthew 12:34 that “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” In other words, whatever is in you in abundance is going to come out!

Your words, because they possess the power of life and death, very often determine your outcome. If God calls you healed through the plan and purpose of redemption in Jesus Christ, what are you calling for? Are you calling for sickness and disease, or are you calling for life and healing?

Once we determine that we want to develop new habits and lifestyles, or maintain the healing or the blessing that God has given us, we must submit ourselves to the teaching of the Word of God.

You must open the Word of God to discover the tools, realities, and principles that He has given to you to keep the door closed to any sickness and disease that may try to enter or return to your body.

When I have a time of need I don’t worry about what I have done wrong, I simply submit myself to God, humbling myself before His great and mighty work, recognizing what He’s done, and acknowledging that I am made righteous by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
