“To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit” (1 Corinthians 12:8-9).
Sometimes we receive healing without even praying for it—we hear the word of God and believe it, and healing comes into our body. This is God’s gift.
When sickness tries to attack me I say, “Devil, the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now lives in me! God’s power is in me! Sickness, I command you to leave my body right now!”
James 5:14-15 says, “Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.” According to this Scripture, we can ask our pastor or a church leader to anoint us with oil and pray for our healing.
The Bible says that through the name of Jesus we have authority over the devil, sickness, and disease. Therefore, when we pray we use the authority that God gave us through Jesus Christ. We can boldly say, “In the name of Jesus, sickness, you must leave my body!”
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!”
Many people believe in Jesus but are scared of the devil. I am not afraid of the devil because God lives in me! I am saved! I am healed! I have been delivered! I have been set free! The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now lives in me!
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!
