Prayer for Healing

Prayer:

Heavenly Father we thank you for creating the place, putting us here, and doing all you have done for us. You sent Your Word to teach us and guide us, You sent Your Son who is the Word made flesh, You sent Your Holy Spirit to dwell in us and empower us. You are always with me, and you work all things for the good of those who love you. I love you and I trust you to work all things for good.

We thank you for sending Your Words to guide us and teach us. Your words are truth and we cherish them with our minds and our hearts. We embrace your words; We do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes out of Your mouth. Just like the rains fall from the sky, You send your words with a purpose and they never return to You void, but always accomplish their assignment. We send them back to You by speaking them with our mouth in faith knowing they are the sword of the spirit and are accomplishing Your will here and now. Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and your words bring life so we will speak them.  

Your words teach us about You and Your very nature. You are love. Your love is the energy driving the universe and everything in it. You created us in your image and put us in the garden in harmony with You. Your love is perfected when we dwell in it and it flows through us to others.  Adam and Eve corrupted the perfect image with selfish rebellion and became separated from You and Your love. Instead of being a conduit for your love, they became self-centered and separated and in need of love. We have inherited their sinful nature which impedes the flow of your love into us and through us. You love us so much that while we were still fighting against you as enemies with our sinful nature, You sent Your Son to live and die an earthly life and be born again for us. You sent your son to restore what was lost through Adam.

Jesus, we thank you for that act of service in faith. You are the truth, you are the objective evidence that God truly loves us. You came in the flesh so we could relate to you. You were with God in the heavens but denied yourself and became a humble human servant, even washing your disciples’ feet.  You denied your godly self and called yourself Son of Man, You did not do Your own will, but only the Fathers will. You willingly paid the price for the sins of all of mankind. Despite your good works and sinless life, You received more humiliation and physical torture than any other man, you were beaten beyond recognition, yet you forgave them. You did that to redeem me and create a path for me to follow.

 I confess my sins and my sinful nature. I deny myself and my own agendas and submit to you as Lord of my life. I invite the Holy Spirit to continue convicting me so I can continue to repent and grow as You continue to form in me and transform me and restore the original perfect image of God in me.

Jesus you are truth. You are the Word made flesh. You were with God in the beginning. You were the master craftsman making order out of chaos during creation. Everything was made through You. God spoke this place into existence through You. Now everything is restored through you. You revealed God’s nature. You bore the consequence of our sin on your body. Your innocent blood is on the mercy seat in heaven covering all of my sins. You are the high priest interceding with the Father. No one gets to the Father except through You.  The Father sees me as innocent and pure through your blood.  I am restored into perfect union with the Father through You and Your blood, not by anything I have done, but by your finished work on that cross and your resurrection. The Holy spirit that raised you from the dead now live in me and has power over my mortal flesh.

You told us in Your Word that Your will is healing. You are Jehovah Rapha – The God who heals (Exodus 15:26).  Jesus is the expressed image of God (Colossians 1:15, etc). Jesus did only the Fathers will (John 6:38). Jesus healed all who came to Him in faith. (Luke 4:40, etc) Jesus is unchanging (Hebrews 13:8). If Jesus did God’s will, and Jesus healed all who came to him, then God’s will was healing. If His will was healing back then, and He is unchanging, then His will remains healing today. I believe God’s will is always healing. He has compassion and wants me healed. When we asked Him, He sent His word to personally and said “the Healer”, and “have patience it is coming”. His will is healing, His will is always healing.

Jesus paid the price for my sins; He bore the consequences on His body, and shed His innocent blood as a permanent sacrifice. When I confess and accept Jesus as lord, I am born again into His family, the body of Christ. When the Father sees me, He sees me through Jesus’ blood. My past is erased from the Father’s sight and I am reconnected in perfect union. When I accept Jesus work on the cross my illnesses have no legal right to remain, He paid the price with His stripes. The same Holy Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives inside me and has the power to heal my mortal flesh. The Father’s will is healing, I speak His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.  I speak healing in Jesus name, by His stripes I am healed. I speak your words and return them to you so they will fulfil their purpose. Your words are the truth, and the truth will set me free.  I speak these words in Jesus’ name to bring glory to the Father through the name of the son. AMEN

God’s Will is Always Healing!

Posted on by jakirkgasser10439

God’s Will Is Always Healing!  Believe it!

One of the biggest obstacles in pursuing healing is understanding in your heart if it is God’s will for you to be healed. 

There are several popular lies propagated by the devil to distract and even defeat us from getting healed.

  1. God is mysterious and unknowable; you can not know His will.
  2. God is making you sick to teach you something; it is your job to suffer through what ever comes along.

The truth counters both of these lies: God’s will is always healing. The only question is which path does He want you to follow to achieve the healing.

How do we know God’s will is always healing? Follow this chain of logic and see where it takes you.

God’s wants us to know His will. He may think differently than we do, and His ways may be different than our ways, But He asks us specifically to know and understand His will. He would not ask us to understand His will if it were not possible. He even makes it clear that we are being foolish if we do not understand His will.

“So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.” Ephesians 5:17

“…we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,” Colossians 1:9

How do we understand Gods will? It was revealed through Jesus. 

“No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, He has made Him known.” John 1:18

Jesus is the expressed image of God; If you know Jesus you know the Father; If you see Jesus you have seen the Father, He and the Father are one.

“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.” Colossians 1:15

“He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature.” Hebrews 1:3

“If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.” John 14:7

“…Whoever has seen me has seen the Father…” John 14:9

“I and the Father are one.” John 10:30

Understand God’s will by looking at what Jesus did, He only did the fathers will.

“So Jesus said to them, ‘When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but speak just as the Father taught me.’” John 8:28

“So Jesus said to them, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise.’” John 5:19

Jesus Healed all who came to Him in faith.

“And he went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction among the people.” Matthew 4:23

“When evening came, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were ill.” Matthew 8:16

“And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction.” Matthew 9:35

“Then great multitudes came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at Jesus’ feet, and He healed them.” Matthew 15:30

“And all the crowd sought to touch him, for power came out from him and healed them all.” Luke 6:19

Questions / Clarificaitons:

  1. Did Jesus ever say no to healing anyone? Scripture says He healed ALL who came to Him in Faith.
  2. Did Jesus ever say, I will heal you eventually but you need to learn a lesson first? There are no examples of Jesus postponing healing pending learning.  He healed all who came to Him in faith.

If Jesus healed all who came to Him in faith, and Jesus only did the Father’s will, and God is unchanging, then God’s will is healing all who come to Him in faith.

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8

Believe it is so, and pray it into place in faith.

“Jesus, I believe it is God’s will for me to be healed. Lord, purge any remaining unbelief from my mind and my heart. You are the God who heals, Jesus is your expressed image, an exact copy of your very nature. Jesus, you healed all who came to you in faith. You are unchanging; If Your will was healing back then, Your will is healing now. I believe this in my heart and I confess this in Faith: God’s will is for me to be healed.  I speak your will into place on earth as it is in heaven; I speak healing into place in your name.”

There are many specific paths to healing: Nutrition, Exercise, Physical therapies, Medications, Surgeries, Mind/Heart/Soul Healings, and instantaneous supernatural interventions. God has a specific path for your healing; The key is to ask Him what it is, and then pursue it boldly in faith.

Jesus Became Sin Cursed On A Tree

Posted on by jakirkgasser10439

Jesus became sin cursed on a tree so you could be healed.

 

Jesus became sin cursed on a tree. His stripes heal us. Are you healed ? 

There are some pieces of scripture that are a bit unusual and awkward, but they are amazingly powerful once you understand them and put the pieces together.

The book of Numbers records the story of the Israelites journey across the wilderness. They became frustrated and rebelled against Moses and God. They suffered a curse of fiery serpents as the consequence of that sinful rebellion. Many were bitten and dying. They recognized the error in their ways and asked Moses to plead for mercy. God told Moses to make a bronze image of a serpent that was biting them and raise it on a pole. All the Israelites who had been bitten were healed when they saw the snake raised on the pole.

This story has its roots in a specific law in Deuteronomy that declares that anything hung on a tree becomes “cursed” by God (unwanted/unsupported/vilified).  This law shaped how capital punishment / death sentences were caried out. For example, the executed body was not to be left hung overnight as a public exhibit because the body would become sufficiently cursed it would defile the land it was later buried in.

So God used this law with Moses and the Israelites.  He had Moses make a bronze image of the serpent that was biting and killing them and had him hang it on a pole. As soon as He raised it up on a pole, it became officially cursed by God. The Israelites all knew this law, and as soon as they saw the serpent raised on a pole, they knew God had cursed the curse of serpents, and they were forgiven of their sin and any who were bitten were healed. They knew this law in thier minds and believed it in their hearts. As soon as they acknowledged it in faith, God’s grace flowed and delivered the promised healing. 

This application of the law extends that concept of things being cursed if hung on a tree in an interesting way by applying the principle of something being cursed to a curse: In this case hanging a curse on a tree curses the curse. If you are a victim of a curse, and you see that the curse is now cursed by God, you are released from the initial curse.  It is sort of a double negative, but it works: If I have a curse, but that curse has been cursed, I am now free from that curse!

The bronze statue of the snake becomes an image of the curse, and the curse becomes cursed when it was hung on the pole. Those that recognize the situation are instantly healed.

That is not a trivial message, but this one is: The image of healing associated with the serpent on a pole has long been associated with the practice of medicine.

 Back to the story; Lets see how this scenario applies with Jesus.

The apostle John tells us Jesus must be raised up the same way Moses raised the serpent so those of us who see Him can be saved from our destruction. When I first was working through this it sounded like we were to raise Jesus on a pole so He would become cursed. That can’t be right, But if we keep working through the parallel verses it starts to become clear.

Moses did not raise a serpent on the pole, he raised an image of the serpent. Jesus allowed His body to be tortured and turned into an image of sin. It wasn’t Jesus himself who was being cursed, it was the image of sin being raised up and cursed. That makes sense and now the connecting verses all make sense:  “He made him to be sin who knew no sin” (2 Cor 5:21);  “He became a curse for us” (Galatians 3:13). “He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree…” (1 Peter 2:24)

Then we get to the real kicker: “…By his stripes you were healed.” (1 Peter 2:24). We need to look at Jesus crucified on the cross exactly the same way the Israelites saw the bronze image of the serpent raised on the pole.  When they saw the curse of serpents was cursed, they knew they were healed.  Jesus became sin hung on a cross, sin was cursed.  When we see sin cursed, we no longer need to suffer, we can see Him on that cross and be healed.

So what does that mean to you.  Do you want divine healing? He did the work for us 2000 years ago; He paid the price; He has already made healing available to you. It is on the shelf waiting for you. It is up to you to recognize you are already fully authorized for healing.  God has done all he needs to do.  You need to claim it. The devil will continue to steal life from you until you figure it out and take action.

My prayer

Heavenly father, thank you for loving me and never giving up on me. Jesus thank you for coming here and doing your amazing work 2000 years ago. You lived a sinless life and then allowed your body to be tortured and converted into the image of sin cursed on a pole. We see that God has cursed sin and death and we are set free from that curse;  We now have Love and Life through you.  We confess our sins and recommit to follow you and live a life worthy of the price you paid.  We stand in the righteousness you provide and claim the promises of your kingdom: Forgiveness for our sins by your innocent blood, And healing of our body by the stripes on your broken body. Just as Moses raised the serpent on a pole to heal the Israelites, We see your broken body raised on that cross as the image of sin cursed by God. I am no longer bound by sin and death, I receive your love and your healing. In Jesus name, AMEN.      

Supporting scripture

Anything hung on a tree is cursed

“If a man has committed a sin deserving of death, and he is put to death, and you hang him on a tree, his body shall not remain overnight on the tree, but you shall surely bury him that day, so that you do not defile the land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance; for he who is hanged is accursed of God. (Deuteronomy 21:22-23)

Moses makes a bronze image of the serpent and raises it on a pole so it becomes cursed. Anyone who has been bitten and looks up and sees the image of the serpent cursed on a pole is saved and does not die from the bite. The original curse of serpents has been cursed and the victims who recognize it are healed.  

“Then they journeyed… and the soul of the people became very discouraged on the way. And the people spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul loathes this worthless bread.” So the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died. (Numbers 21:4-6)

Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord and against you; pray to the Lord that He take away the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people. (Numbers 21:7)

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live.” So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived. (Numbers 21:8-9)

We must see Jesus on the cross the same way Moses had the Israelites look at the image of the serpent on the cross.

“And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:14-15)

The law of sin and death is a curse on us. We are born as sinners and will eventually suffer death because of it. No amount of our own sacrifice can fully redeem us of our sin. Our sin has earned us the wages of suffering and death.  

“But if you will not obey the voice of the Lord your God or be careful to do all his commandments and his statutes that I command you today, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you. Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the field. Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. Cursed shall be the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground, the increase of your herds and the young of your flock. Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out. … (Deuteronomy 28:15-68)

By sending His son to “become” sin  “cursed” on a tree, God created a situation where the curse of the law of sin and death was now cursed.

“For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh” (Romans 8:3)

Jesus body was tortured and became the image of sin

“For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” (2 Corinthians 5:21)

Jesus tortured body became the image of sin, the consequences of sin. His body as the image of  Sin was hung on the cross, Sin was then cursed by God

“Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree” )” (Galatians 3:13)

Jesus allowed his body to become beaten and crucified to become the image of sin “hung on a pole”. Be became like the bronze serpent, the image of Sin cursed by God”…We are set free from the curse of sin and death.  When we see that the curse has been cursed, we no longer suffer under the curse and are healed.  

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. (1 Peter 2:24)

Hope this helps. Happy to discuss. Leave a comment if you are moved to do so.

 

God wants you well

 God Wants You Healed – NOW!

What is Gods will for you?  Does He want you healed of your afflictions? He certainly CAN can heal,  you but is it HIS Will to heal you? The answer is YES!  

One of the critical aspects of divine healing is understanding that it is God’s will for you.  If you are suffering from illness or disease, He wants you healed so you can do good works to bring glory to the kingdom. God is invisible, but He reveals Himself and His will in the written word (Bible), the life of Jesus, and through the Holy Spirit inside you.  The following are some key threads to consider in your mind.  Please work throught them and let the Holy Spirit inside you help you settle the truth into your heart so that you can act in faith and receive the full blessings He promises us.

We can and should understand God’s will.

There is no cripture that says “He works in mysterious ways” –  That common saying is a lie and a work of the devil. There is no scripture that says you can not understand God’s will.  In fact scripture says you can and should, and you are being foolish if you don’t.

“So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.” (Ephesians 5:17)

“… be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,” (Colossians 1:9)

We need to change how we think in order to understand God’s will.

He thinks differently than people of the world do, He thinks with a larger purpose and an eternal mindset.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8-9)

We can and should strive to see things from His perspective and project His intention into a situation. We need to lif ourselves form this earthly physucal mindset and look a things from God’s eternal spiritual perspective. That is how we start to understand and then execute His will. Does your current situation reflect God’s stated intentions? Does it line up with His promises? Am I experiencing curses or blessings? Am I experiencing life in abundance or is the devil stealing, killing, or destroying my life.   

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2)

Healing is His very nature

“I am Jehovah Rapha” –“I am the God who heals you.” (Exodus 15:26 Hebrew / NKJV)

“He heals the brokenhearted And binds up their wounds.” (Psalm 147:3)

“For by Me your days will be multiplied, And years of life will be added to you.” (Proverbs 9:11)

God made a promise to forgive us and heal us if we diligently seek Him and repent from sin

“…I will restore you to health and heal your wounds,’ declares the LORD” (Jeremiah 30:17)

“Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, Who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases” (Psalm 103:23 )

“But to you who fear My name the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings” (Malachi 4:2)

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14)

“He sent His word and healed them, And delivered them from their destructions.” (Psalm 107:20)

Jesus revealed God’s will:  His will is to heal all who are afflicted.

Jesus is the expressed image of God.

“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.” (Colossians 1:15)

We know God the Father through the recorded life of His son Jesus.

“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.” (John 14:7)

Jesus revealed God’s will, He only did the Fathers Will.

“He made known to us the mystery of His will…” (Ephesians 1:9)

“For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.” (John 6:38)

Jesus demonstrated God’s will for Healing – He healed ALL who came to Him

“…God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.” (Acts 10:38)

Jesus never left anyone ill – He healed all who came 

“When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick.” (Matthew 8:16)

“And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.” (Matthew 14:14)

”And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them there.” (Matthew 19:2)

“And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them all.” (Matthew 12:15)

“Wherever He entered, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged Him that they might just touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made well.” (Mark 6:56)

“When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and healed them.” (Luke 4:40)

“And the whole multitude sought to touch Him, for power went out from Him and healed them all.” (Luke 6:19)

“But when the multitudes knew it, they followed Him; and He received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of healing.” (Luke 9:11)

Most were healed through acting in Faith

Then Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road. (Mark 10:52)

“Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.” (Mark 5:33-34)

“But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, saying, “Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be made well.” (Luke 8:50)

Jesus expects believers to use the Holy Spirit to continue this same healing activity today.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19-20)

 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.” (John 14:12)

Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.  And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. (James 5:14-16)

God the Father and Jesus are both unchanging

“For I, the Lord, do not change” (Malachi 3:6)

Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. (James 1:17)

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8)

If Jesus is the image of God and He only did the Father’s will, and He healed all who came to Him, then His will was to heal.  If God and Jesus are unchanging, then God’s will is to heal you right Now! 

Testimonies

God’s will for healing those who diligently follow Him has been born out in my personal experience working with various folks: 

Accelerated surgery recovery, Osteoarthritis pain relieved, Torn meniscus healed, each after prayer of faith

Gall stone pain gone after prayer of faith.

Shoulder pain gone after prayer of faith.

Back healed after prayer of faith

Brain cancer gone after receiving “resurrections” as word of wisdom and then prayer of faith.

Metastasized Lung cancer in Brain healed through radiation treatment – after receiving image of “radiation exposure” as word of wisdom and then prayer of faith

Metastasized Ovarian cancer healing in progress without surgery after receiving “The Healer” as a word of wisdom and a very distinct sign of eagles which was interpreted as “Psalm 103 – Bless the lord – He heals all your diseases  – Your youth renewed like eagles”

My experience shows the opposite to be true as well.  Folks who do not chose to seak and understand Gods will to heal will continue to be victims.

Folks who selfishly stick to long held traditions and selective doctrines and/or do not diligently seek and apply God’s actual written word and act in faith will miss out on His promises of Life in abundance in this world.  

Positive Confession / Confirmation:

Heavenly father. Thank you for revealing your will for Healing though your name, through your word, and through the life of Jesus. You are Jehovah Rapha – the God who heals us.  You promise to heal us if we diligently follow you and truly repent from sins. You sent your word to Heal us, I cherish your words and seek to understand them in my mind, and hold them deep in our heart – I believe they bring health to my flesh.

Jesus is Your word made flesh. You are invisible, but Jesus is your expressed image in the flesh. He did only your will, Not His own. When we see Him, we see You; When we know Him, we Know you.  Jesus taught, did good works, cast out demons, and healed all who were afflicted. Based on Jesus life, your will is for people to find You through Jesus, repent and turn from their sins, be healed of their afflictions, and live a long life worthy of the price Jesus paid.

He came here as the Son of Man and was baptized with the Holy Spirit and power. Jesus used the Holy Spirit to heal ALL who were afflicted. He did not heal some of them, He healed all of them. He did not pray and Hope they were healed, He Healed them. He taught them about You, build faith in their hearts, cast out their demons, and healed them of their afflictions. Some were healed as a sign for unbelievers, like the man born blind from birth. Most were healed as believers acting in faith like the woman with the issue of blood who reached out and touched His garment. Either way, they were ALL healed.

Jesus never inflicted illness on anyone, He never told them to come back when they had more faith, He healed them on the spot.

You are unchanging; Your will is unchanging.   You wanted everyone healed back then, you want everyone healed now. Your will is healing, You want me healed.

It is up to me to align my will with Your will and act in faith to receive healing.

Scripture case for healing

Posted on by jakirkgasser10439

Scriptural Case for Divine Healing

Are you interested in recieving Divine Healing? There are several scriptural principles you need to get straight in your mind, sew into your heart, and act out in faith. I have grouped them into a logical series of categories as follows. 

God is the source of everything good

God is love; God loves me; He loves me so much he sent His son to suffer and die for me

“God is love” (1John 4:8)

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

“In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. (1 John 4:9-10)

Illness is of the devil

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12).

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.” (John 10:10-29)

“…the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.” (1 John 5:19)

“…God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.” (Acts 10:38)

We live in a fallen world 

We were originally created in Gods image – Perfect, Innocent, and  Immortal

“So God created man in His own image” (Genesis 1:27)

He gave us dominion and authority over all the earth

“Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” (Genesis 1:26)

Adam and Eve sinned  – they listened to the lying devil and disregarded God’s only command – They ate of the forbidden tree of knowledge of good an evil. 

“The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” (Genesis 3:13)

That act of sin changed their nature, It tainted the original perfect image in thier soul. They got to know evil and became self-conscious (ex: knew they were naked and hid) and self serving (ex: blaming others); and they suffered consequences: Eviction, Toiling, Struggling, Pain, Death

“Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings. (Genesis 3:7)

Adam blamed God and Eve: “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.” (Genesis 3:12)

Eve blamed the devil: The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” (Genesis 3:13)

Adams’ descendants inherited his sin-tainted image.

“…In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God….And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth” (Genesis 5:1-3)

We inherit Adams’ image and propagate it through the bloodline

“Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned.” (Romans 5:12-21)

Jesus came here to save us

Jesus came here to save us from sin, to redeem the image of God which was lost through Adam.

“For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.” (Luke 19:10)

“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.” (Mark 10:45)

“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.” (Matthew 10:34)

Jesus came here in the flesh, resisted the devil and his temptations to the point of death as a sinless man, and defeated the devil and His power over death with His resurrection.

“Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil” (Hebrews 2:14)

“He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (2 Corinthians 5:21)

Jesus ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father with all power over heaven and on earth.

“So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.” (Mark 16:19)

“All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth” (Matthew 28:18)

He intercedes for us – He blots out our sin, God sees us Holy and beyond reproach through Him

“And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight.” (Colossians 1:21-22)

We need to Accept Jesus as our Lord and savior and then actually follow Him.

When we accept Jesus and follow Him, our spirit is born again into the original perfect image

“And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.” (1 Corinthians 15:49)

“For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.” (Romans 8:29)

We become adopted children of God, We are entitled to inherit the promises of the kingdom

“Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, everyone who hangs on a tree is cursed), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.” (Galatians 3:13-14)

“To redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.” (Galatians 4:5-7)

Follow Jesus

God gives us a choice – Follow Him and get blessings, or try to go it alone become a victim of the devil and his curses.

“I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days..” (Deuteronomy 30:19-20)

In order to receive the blessings we need to truly Follow Jesus. Deny your self-centered interests, take up your cross (Resist temptation to sin when suffering for God), and Follow Him (Apply Commandments)

“If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me”(Luke 9:23)

Become committed to living a life worthy of the price He paid

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. (Romans 12:1)

“You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men.”(1 Corinthians 7:23)

Repent of our sins, accept His forgivness,  and forgive those who sin against you.

“Peter said to them, ‘Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.'”(Acts 2:38)

When we are baptized into the new life – the old life dies with Jesus in the grave, the new life rises with His resurrections

“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. (Galatians 2:20)

We are expected to transform our mind and execute Gods will, in alignment with His commandments.

“…do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:1-2)

When we repent and transform our lives, The devil will have nothing in US

We need to stop sinning – Sin opens the door to the devil

The devil lurks just waiting to pounce; He comes to steal, kill and destroy

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” (1 Peter 5:8)

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy…” (John 10:10)

God protects us from the devil when we follow Him

“But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.” (2 Thessalonians 3:3)

“The righteous person may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all” (Psalm 34:19)

Sin separates us from God and His ability to protect us

“But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hear.” (Isaiah 59:2)

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I (Jesus) have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).

Jesus gives us power over the devil

Jesus came here to destroy the works of the devil:

The Son of God (Jesus) appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil” (1 John 3:8).

Jesus defeated the devil: 1) Denying himself; He gave up his status as a God and came here as a man in sinful flesh, 2) He suffered and resisted temptation to sin, to the point of death, 3) He overcame the power of death by His resurreciton 

“Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself (Jesus) likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil.” (Hebrews 2:14)
“Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it” (Colossians 2:15).

Jesus received All power from the devil.

“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,” (Matthew 28:18-20)

Jesus suffered and died for me, by his stripes I am healed:

“… He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).

When I accept and follow Jesus, My sins are forgiven, All my sins

“Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29).

“Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven” (Mark 3:28).

Jesus redeemed me, He reconciled me with the Father, He makes me Righteous:

“And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight” (Colossians 1:21-22).

“This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe (Romans 3:22).

I am born again, All old things are gone, All things are new in Jesus:

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17).

Jesus commissioned us to continue His work

“…As the Father has sent Me, I also send you” (John 20:21).

Jesus delegated His authority to you

“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” (Luke 10:19)

He expects all of us to use that authority

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.” (John 14:12)

“And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” (Mark 16:17-18)

I AM the body of Christ, His arms and legs on earth, and I will continue His work

“Now you are the body of Christ” (2 Corinthians 12:27).

The Power that raised Jesus from the dead is working inside me right now!

“…He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you” (Romans 8:11).

Jesus name is power. He is the name above all names, all must kneel to His name

“… God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth” (Philippians 2:9).

The prayer of a righteous man is powerful:

“Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much” (James 5:16).

You are actually fighting a spritual battle against evil

I rebuke the evil spirits affecting me. I command you to leave in Jesus name!:

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. (Ephesians 6:12)

You must speak healing into place

I speak to this mountain, and it is moving!:

“For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says” (Mark 11:23).

God wants me well. His word is truth and unchanging, As it is written, so let it be done:

“My son, give attention to my words; … For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh. (Psalm 4:20-22)

“He sent His word and healed them” (Psalm 107:20).

“Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed” (Jeremiah 17:14).

When you move forward in faith, you make room for God’s grace to flow in.

“The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.”(Romans 16:20)

You must truly repent of your sins.

“Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”(James 5:16)

You must pray God’s will into place.

“Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”

You must believe to receive.

“Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.”(Mark 11:24)

 

God is waiting for you

Posted on by jakirkgasser10439

God is waiting for you to act in Faith!

 

One of the challenges of divine healing is understanding that we have to take the initiative. God has already done all He needs to do to set you up for success. He has now handed the ball to us and He is waiting for us to pick it up and run with it. 

Exodus 15:26 is powerful – The closing sentence is one of the building blocks for faith for divine healing:  “I am the Lord who heals you.”

The front end of the verse makes it clear that we have a role to play. “If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes…”.  Based on that, we need to understand what God said, what He wants us to do, and then we need to do it. 

The Bible, or The Word, captures the word of God and forms the foundation to understanding His commandments, and what is right in His sight. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit and is a powerful weapon for fighting the battles we encounter in this life.

Once piece of the divine healing puzzle becomes clear as you understand what God tells us in the word: He handed us the ball and is waiting for us to run with it. If we are sitting back assuming “He is in control” and/or He can heal me “If it is His will”,  we will be disappointed.

Follow this chain of logic:

  • God told us Why we get sick (Sin opens the door to the devil, We are all born as sinners)
  • God told us Who causes illness (We struggle against powers and principalities; The devil lies, steals, kills, and destroys)
  • God sent Jesus to save us
  • Jesus showed us how to heal (Repent and Kick out the devil)
  • Jesus paid the price (Shed innocent blood, Bore sin on His back)
  • Jesus gained all power by defeating death
  • Jesus delegated His power over the devil to us (ALL power over the enemy)
  • Jesus told us to continue His work
  • Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit to help us
  • Jesus sat down on the thrown and is waiting for us to do it
  • He will not go against his word (God is unchanging)
  • He told us how to receive healing (Repent, Believe, Act in faith, Receive) 
  • He told us we must pray His will into place on earth as it is in heaven

Jesus showed us the way. He paid the price, and then handed us the ball.  We need to pick up the ball and follow the path He made for us.

He has already done His part, He gave us the keys and will not take them back. He is waiting for us to do our part, believe the word of God, act in faith,  follow Him, and receive His promises.

Suggested prayer:

Heavenly father, I thank you for all you have done for me, You are the source of everything good in this world..

Thank you Jesus for coming here to save us: By your blood we were saved, by your stripes we were healed. I believe in you, I choose to follow you as my Lord and savior. I stand in the redemption you paid for, I receive the forgiveness you provide, and I flow forgiveness to all who sin against me.  I am the righteousness of God through You,  and I thankfully receive your gracious blessings.

Thank you Lord, for sending your word. It is alive, it is powerful, It is truth, and when I hold it close in my heart it sets me free. I thank you for helping me be receptive to your word, and for gaining more understanding as i study it. Give me eyes to see all things from your perspective, ears to hear and understand your messages, and a heart to believe and act on your truths.

Lord, Thank you for forgiving my sins – those I recognize and those I do not yet recognized. It is clear that I still have much to learn about you and your kingdom. I am committed to follow your ways as i learn and understand them. You paid a high price to free me from the burden of sin; I will live my life worthy of the price you paid.

I believe Illness is of the devil and I refuse to accept it. I am a born again son of God. I am following Jesus and He presents me as Holy to the Father. I have repented and confessed my sins, they are forgiven by the blood of my Lord and Savior. I have authority over the devil and he has no claim on me.  I herby rebuke the evil spirits affecting me; I command you to leave me now in Jesus name.

The power of life and death is in the tongue. I speak healing into this body in Jesus name. You are the God that heals; By your stripes I am healed; I believe in your promises of Life in abundance; I believe and I receive the truth of your love and your promises in Jesus name. As it is written, so let it be done.

Thank you Lord, for all you have already done for me, and thank you for healing me here and now.  May my life be of greater service to your kingdom, and may my testimony be a bright light for others to see the power in the kingdom of God.   I ask this In Jesus name. AMEN

Supporting scripture:

Scripture as the written word of God, it is truth, it is unchanging.

“it is truth” (John 17:17)

“it is impossible for God to lie” (Hebrews 6:18)

Jesus is the word in flesh, and does not change

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:4)

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8)

“For I am the Lord, I do not change” (Malachi 3:6)

We are to live by the word of God.

“It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”(Matthew 4:4)

We are born sinners, and all have sinned

“for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23)

Sin separates us from God and His promise of protection

“…your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hear.” (Isaiah 59:2)

Our physical struggles are actually against the devil

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ” (Ephesians 6:4)

The devil administers the consequences of sin

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy” (John 10:10)

“Deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh” (1 Corinthians 5:5) 

Jesus healed by kicking out devils

“God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.”(Acts 10:38)

Jesus defeated the devil by dying as an innocent sinless man on the cross.

“Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.” (Colossians 2:15)

He disarmed the devil, removing the power of sin over us

“…having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing (Colossians 2:13-16)

Jesus received all power in heaven and on earth by defeating death on the cross. 

“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.’ ” (Matthew 28:18)

He delegated His authority over the enemy to us. All of it!

“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”(Luke 10:19)

When we repent and turn from sin, and follow Jesus, we are released from the power of Satan and aligned with the power of God. Our sins are forgiven and we inherit His blessings.

“…open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.’(Acts 26:18)

Once He delegated, He sat down and is waiting for us to act.

“But this Man (Jesus), after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God, from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool. (Hebrews 10:12-13)

He commissions us to continue His work

“As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” (John 20:21)

He gives us the Holy Spirit to help us and teach us

“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.(John 14:26)

He expects us to do what He did

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.(John 14:12)

He directs us specifically how to address illness: repent of our sins, pray the prayer of faith, receive forgiveness, and be healed. 

“Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” (James 5:14-17)

The spiritual world operates entirely on faith

“But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is (That He exists and Is God), and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”(Hebrews 11:6)

Faith is a thing – it is a substance. Faith requires belief in your heart for things you can not yet see, and action based on that belief. 

“…faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1)

Faith is built by diligently seeking God, studying the word of god and listening to His voice inside you.

“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” (Romans 10:17)

We must believe to receive His promises

“Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.” (Mark 11:24)

Key Beliefs For Healing

Posted on by jakirkgasser10439

 Key Beliefs for Divine Healing

 

I have been involved in this informal ministry for about 5 years. My focus has been split between learning how spiritual processes work and helping people become healed from physical ailments.  A vast majority of my encounters with healing have bad two aspects: spiritual development, and healing execution. While in some cases there was an instantaneous and miraculous healing flow, In most cases the healing flowed in after a period of spiritual development. Spiritual development is a learning process and can take a while depending on how aggressively you approach it. This blog post is intended to facilitate the teaching / learning / growth aspect of this process and accelerate believers on the path towards healing.

The first part of the blog is a discussion on belifs and the process of establishing beliefs and developing faith; the second part is a listing of key beliefs which provide a foundation for Divine Healing. Ground yourself on the learning process then run through the list of beliefs and see where you are on each one. I have scripture and process logic to support exploration and discussion for each one to help you on your journey.

Some definitions:

  • Truth: A principle that flows from God, All truth flows from God. God is truth.
  • Belief: Something you know in your heart to be true.
  • Faith: Acting on something you Believe to be true, even if you do no evidence for it

Establishing Beliefs / Building Faith

Spiritual knowledge must be revealed to us; We are not born with it, and we can not derive it by observation in the earthly world. Spiritual knowledge can come a variety of sources including preachers, teachers, writers, friends, and most is rooted in holy scriptures.

Learning is a process that goes through progressive stages:

  • Exposure to new information leads to Awareness
  • Gathering and reviewing more information leads to familiarity and Knowledge
  • Investigation, study, and rationalization in your mind leads to Understanding
  • Application to various situaiotns leads to practical experience and Wisdom.

Learning is an active process; You must invest some mental energy to work through the learning stages. The level of understanding we develop on a topic depends on how much energy we are willing to invest gathering, contemplating and rationalizing. How much energy you put into something is related to how important it is to you. It is either already important because you intrinsically value it and you want to fully explore it, or it becomes important because you discover the topic has consequences and you want to better understand how it works. You can learn quite a bit on most topics if yo put your mind to it. You can learn even more if you apply what you are learning as you go.

Think about how you go about any sort of serious learning, whether for school, or problem solving at home or at work. We think through a topic; What are we seeing in front of you? What do we know about it? How does it fit with our experience? How does it fit with our understanding of how things work? If it fits, we log it in our mental database of experiences and move on.  If it is different, we rationalize it: Either dismiss it as a special case we are not going to worry about, or choose to spend the time to figure it out in detail so we are prepared to deal with it again in the future. As we dig into it, we try to figure it out ourselves, we look for published information, we talk to friends with experience in this area, we pursue friends of friends and even track down experts. Once you convince yourself you understand something, you then figure out how best to deal with it:  What are the options, what are the likely outcomes, how would I pursue them, what are the risks. You select a path forward based on your best reasoning. You proceed down that path and check to see if you are getting the results you expect and adjust as necessary.

Once you are moving forward, you have established at least two beliefs:  1) What you are facing,  and 2) how best to deal with it. The criticallity of those specific beliefs depends on the significance of the results… is it a life or death situation or are you choosing whether to eat your picnic supper on a real plate or a paper plate. 

Firm belief and a sense of urgency lead to commitment

At some point in your lives, we learn to power through difficult situations with determination, commitment, and perseverance.  We act with more confidence and conviction when we have established truly solid beliefs. You believe you understand the situation at hand, and you believe the path you have chosen will get you to a better situation if you apply enough energy and drive through it. You will not commit the energy necessary to make much progress on serious issues unless you firmly believe you are on the right path to success.

The other piece of the conviction puzzle is a sense of urgency. You must believe it is more important to act to change the course you are on than to let it take its course. There are plenty of potential sources of urgency, you just need grab on to one to drive you forward: 1) You are going to die someday, Where are you going to spend eternity? , Eternity in Heaven is better than eternity in hell; Peace, Joy and Love in this life is better than Hate, Angst, and Fear; Divine healing is better than continued illness;  I better get to know Jesus before I have to stand before Him.

You have likely spent significant time and energy understanding this earthly world and your physical body. How it all works, what to feed it, how to keep it active and strong.  Most of us will spend less than 100 years in our physical body but we will all spend eternity in our spiritual body. Where and how you get to spend eternity is a direct result of how you choose to spend this life. How much energy have you put into understanding how the spiritual world works and how to develop your spiritual body to be ready for it?  How long does it take to develop muscle? How long does it take for muscles to atrophy if you stop being active?  How quickly does it take to build a healthy lean body through diet, how quickly does it deteriorate into disfunciton and disease if you have a poor diet? It is the same for your spiritual body – it needs food and exercise to be vigorous. The consequences of your spiritual development are significant and eternal. It is well worth the investment of some energy here and now while you can still impact your eternal path. 

The key to commitment and conviction is solid belief and a sense of urgency. This is just as true for physical earthly things as it is for spiritual things.   

Knowing in your “knower”

Engineering is a practice of making progress by applying truths that you can verify by physical evidence.  Faith is the practice of making progress by acting on truths you do not have earthly evidence for. You ca only verify those truths in your internal  “knower”.  They are very similar but also very different.

One of the amazing design features of our soul is a pair of sensors. One detects acts of divine love, the other detects elements of divine truth. The first one manifests as a warm feeling in your heart when you see a fireman risks his own life to go into a burning building to rescue a baby. The other one is less obvious, but it is a sort of resonance in your mind when you know in your “Knower” when something is true. It is a cousin of the sense you get when your conscience is telling you something you are thinking about doing is wrong. For this exercise you will need to tune in to your knower!

Establishing beliefs

The first step toward a belief is to establish something as True in  your mind. If we intellectually “Believe” something is true then we perceive and acknowledge that “it is so”; yes, indeed, that is the way the world works. Once we acknowledge something as a truth, we hold it as a belief, and we can choose to act on it!

We “Hold” beliefs. We “Act in faith” on our beliefs.

Truth: a properly rigged parachute will allow a skilled operator to descend from altitude and land safely.

Beliefs: Parachutes work, This one is packed correctly, I have been trained and know how to use it. 

Faith: Jumping from the plane trusting your belief in the parachute to work.

So the basic flow is, lock in the truths, establish the beliefs, and then build faith.  Faith is build by practice and experience. 

Love of Truth

“Love of the truth” is key to opening spiritual doors. When you choose to be inquisitive and seek the spiritual truth, you are using your free will to consciously invest energy to explore the spiritual dimension. Reading, Listening, Watching, Talking, Thinking, Meditating, Praising, and Worshiping are each conscious acts of free will aligned with the love of truth. As you purposefully seek the truth with your outer mind, your inner mind becomes open to receive inflow from heaven. This is a crirtcal step to transition from knowledge and “intellectual truths” to perception of “spiritual truths” and beliefs you will become willing to act on in faith. 

Divine Healing

Each of us is a three part being:  We have a physical body, we have am eternal soul which includes our conscious thoughts and emotions, and we have a spirit which connects us with the Lord. Divine Healing flows from the Holy Spirit, through your spirit, into your soul/mind, and then into your physical body.  To optimize this flow we want to develop your spirit or “spiritual body” so it can function effectively and fill this role, overcome the inherent resistance in your soul/mind, and flow healing into your physical body.  

Beliefs for Divine Healing

There are a series of beliefs that form a foundation of truth for receiving healing. We can become familiar with them and develop understanding of each through reading or listening. We should be able to rationalize each through a combination of scripture and logic and they should resonate in our knower. The next step will be to practice acting on them in our life. 

Key beliefs for divine healing

  1. God is Love, His love powers the universe and everything in it.
  2. God is Truth, His truth provides structure and order so His love can produce usefulness.
  3. God created us in His image, put us in eternal paradise, and gave us dominion over the earth.
  4. All sin is against God – It happens when we choose to ignore His rule and put our agenda first.
  5. When we sin we separate ourselves from God’s protection, we become exposed to consequences from the devil. The wages of sin is death.
  6. Adam sinned, got separated from God and paradise, gave authority to the devil, we inherit our sinful nature from Him
  7. We live in a fallen world: Bad things happen, The devil creates them, We suffer the consequences of sins from others, and we make things worse by our own sins.
  8. The devil is real and we struggle against him. He lies, steals and destroys. Illness is work of the devil, Jesus came to defeat the works of the devil and to bring light and life in abundance.
  9. The Hebrews sacrificed a perfect lamb every year to atone for their sins. Jesus was an innocent man and sacrificed himself as a lamb for the sins of all of mankind.
  10. God loves us so much He sent His son to suffer and die for us
  11. Jesus sacrifice provides the path of “redemption” for followers – it reunites us with the father, restores His image in us. What we lost through Adam, we regain through Jesus. He is the way back to the Father.
  12. His blood cleanses the act of sin from our mind – it is represented in the communion wine. We must receive it, and we most flow forgiveness to others.
  13. His body was broken to bare the consequences of sin for the world – it is represented in the communion bread broken at the last supper
  14. When we accept Jesus as lord and savior, we are born again – sins are forgiven, our spirit is renewed
  15. When we ask, the Holy Spirit comes to live in us – the spirit that raised Jesus from the dead
  16. We are the body of Christ – His arms and legs on this earth – We are to become love in action – People are to see Jesus through us.
  17. We have a commission to continue Jesus work on earth – Defeat the works of the devil – as the father sent me, I send you
  18. We have authority to use His name, and do the works He did while on this earth.
  19. God’s will is healing, Jesus is the expressed image of God, Jesus healed all, God’s will  is unchanging
  20. We need to pray God’s will into place; God gave us dominion, He will not violate it, we must give him permission to act.
  21. The word of God is a powerful sword. The Word of God is perfect and permanent. The spiritual world operates as a legal case –- as it is written, it is done.
  22. God works all things to our advantage: Each challenge is a growth opportunity – You will get increasingly challenging opportunities until He gets your attention.
  23. God created you with a purpose. Our purpose is to apply the gifts and opportunities He provides to become useful to others in our sphere of influence. We are to become His love and His truth in motion.
  24. In order to accomplish His purpose, we must transform our mind, see things from God’s spiritual perspective, overcome the physical world with the help of the Holy Spirit, and shine in this fallen world so that others can find Jesus through us.
  25. We need to develop and care for our spiritual body just like we care for our physical body
      • Eat spiritual food (Word of God), We do not live by bread alone but by every word of God.
      • Exercise spiritual muscle (Build Faith)

Exercise:

Work through each of the 25 items one by one.

Do you understand it? Does it make sense?  

Can you explain it in rational terms – how it works / how it fits / why it is important?

Can you identify scripture that supports it?

Do you “Know ” it is truth in your heart? Do you believe “it is so”? 

Can you apply it in a prayer ? for a real situation?

Are you willing to stake your earthly life on it? Would you stake your eternal life on it? 

Supporting scripture:

I will build a catalog of supporting scriptures as next step 

Prayer:

Use your reading/watching pursuit of this topic as an opportunity to get close to Him. Start it off with … 

“Lord,  Thank you that you have put me on this journey.    Lord, you said ‘seek and ye shall find’ : Guide me to the right information to start me off. Help me find you, your love, and your truth as I engage with this material.  Lord, you said ‘ask and it shall be given’ ; Give me eyes to see things from your perspective so I can understand your messages. Help me apply what I learn. Help me develop my spiritual body with the proper beliefs so I can act in faith to overcome this fallen world and become more effective for others in your kingdom. I ask this in Jesus name”

 

Should you expect healing when you pray?

Posted on by jakirkgasser10439

Should you expect healing when you pray?

I have been praying for people to be healed for several years now.  Sometimes I see a physical healing, sometimes I don’t. Sometimes it happens right during the prayer, sometimes it comes soon after; minutes or hours or gradually over days. Many times it is not clear what has happened physically, but the person feels something distinctly positive inside them; some sort of energetic spiritual inflow or some sort of pressure release. Up until now, I have been satisfied with what ever results are achieved because it is the Holy Spirit doing the work and I am just an agent setting up the situation for it to happen.  This variation in results is fine with routine aches and pains but becomes an issue when serious illnesses remain after prayer. 

Should I expect more? Is there something more I should be doing?

HE showed me the answer and it is in black and white. 

I need to step up my game and deliver on His expectations of Healing.

A quick review of the basics:

The universal equation for God’s grand design takes the form of:

LOVE flowing through TRUTH yielding USEFULLNESS and then GROWTH

LOVE: God is love. We need to fully embrace Gods unconditional and infinitely powerful love for each of us. His love flows into us. As we transform, We become His love in action for others.  

TRUTH: We need to believe several key truths deep in our heart:

  1. God is the source of all good
  2. Illness is the work of the devil 
  3. God’s will can be known and it is unchanging
  4. God’s will is for us to prosper so we can bring him glory and attract others to the kingdom.
  5. Sin separates us from God and his will
  6. Illness and death entered the world as a wage of Adam’s Sin. It stays here because of  ours.
  7. Sin is between you and God; You “sin” when you choose to violate what God tells you to do; Choosing to do the wrong thing when you know better.
  8. You must repent of your sins for them to be forgiven (Acknowledge them, Turn from them, and resist them by Following God as you move forward) 
  9. Jesus paved the way for us to get out of sin: Divinely born as human, Resisting temptation and living a sinless life, Receiving the holy spirit and doing wonderous works, completely submitting his flesh to death in faith with the Father, perfecting his human soul, and glorifying his human body through resurrection 
  10. Jesus broken body serves as a reminder for us – sin cursed on a pole for all to see. We are to put our fleshly sin to death. 
  11. Jesus sacrificial blood provides forgiveness for mankind, it washes us from guilt for the decision to sin
  12. When we choose Jesus, He presents us as righteous to the Father, and we are reunited with his will 
  13. Jesus resurrection overcame all the the forces of hell and gave Him authority over heaven and on the earth 
  14. Jesus immediately delegated authority to us as his “body” to continue his work on earth
  15. Jesus released the holy spirit to each of us to guide us and help us
  16. We have the full authority to do all that Jesus did and more.
  17. The power that raised Jesus from the dead resides in us
  18. Our ability to engage The holy spirit in us strengthens as we transform our mind
  19. We must speak to our mountain, Life and death are in the power of the tongue
  20. We must conceive healing in our brain, and then manifest it through faith in our heart. 

For USEFULNESS:  I need to take action based on these beliefs to create usefulness in a situation

  1. Acknowledge God
  2. Acknowledge  Jesus work
  3. Stand against the devil
  4. Speak God’s will into place
  5. Bring glory to the father

For GROWTH: We strengthen our own faith and become a beacon for the kingdom.  Be assertive, Be humble, Give credit.

If you want to go deeper on any of these basic elements please <Click Here> to go to my web page on healing

Several key points recently became more clear

1) You need to KNOW it is God’s will to heal – and believe it in your heart

How can you know God’s will?  He tells us very clearly.  Jesus is the expressed image of the father (Hebrews 1:3).  If you know Jesus you know the father (John 14:7). Jesus does only what his father shows him (John 5:19). 

Jesus healed everyone that came to him (Matthew 15:30). He did not turn anyone away.  He never denied anyone because they did not have faith.

He didn’t just pray for them, He HEALED  them.

He didn’t heal some of them, He healed ALL of them. 

God is unchanging:   “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8).

If Jesus is God incarnate, and He healed everyone that came to him, and He is unchanging – than he wants you healed. It is God’s will to heal you!  Believe it!!!  

2) Healing flows from the Spirit through the Soul into the Body

Healing flows from the holy spirit through your soul into your physical body 

Your soul consists of your Mind,  your Will  and your Emotions. We are limited by the transformation of our mind. And the Eyes are the entry way to the mind.

You conceive of healing in your mind. You become what you think  (Proverbs 23:7). You can only be as good as what you eat (Eyes, Ears, and Mouth).

Stay focused on the Word of God and the model of Jesus life. Commit to Transformation from natural self centered nature to loving God and others more than yourself.  Work to become Love in action for those around you. This opens the pathway for transformation.

Cleanse yourself of unforgiveness. Just as Jesus loves you and forgives you of your sins against the father, You need to love your enemies and forgive them. Any negative energy in your emotions will impede the flow from your spirit through your sole and into your body.

Acknowledge Jesus broken body paved the way for your redemption and salvation. Submit your body to him. Receive His healing from the spirit through your soul into your body

3) Jesus handed the ball to us and expects us to continue his work on earth

After his resurrection, Jesus was given ” All authority in heaven and on earth”  (Matthew 28:18)

The very next thing he did was delegate his authority on the earth to us: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,…” (Matthew 28:19). 

He expects us to continue His work: “As the Father has sent Me, I also send you” (John 20:21).

Jesus came here to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8),  but the work is not complete “…the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.” (1 John 5:19)

Jesus expects us to do exactly the same things He did while he was here on earth, and even more:   “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father (John 14:12)

He established us as the Body of Christ on earth, with Him as the head. (1 Corinthians 12:27)

He gave us the holy spirit to guide us and help us just as it helped him. (John 14:26)

So there is a distinct hand off, and we need to take the ball;  and do what Jesu did, including heal the sick.  Pretty Clear message.

4) We need to expect healing

He told us  “…these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons;….they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” (Mark 16:14-18). HE didn’t say they MIGHT recover. HE didn’t say they will recover if THEY believe.  HE said they WILL recover.  That is pretty clear.

When Jesus sent the 72 out to the cities, he sent them to heal the sick (Luke 10:14). He didn’t tell them to just Pray for the sick. He told them to HEAL them.  That is pretty clear.   

So I got my answer. Healing is the expectation. But how?  The answer comes in James 5.

5) We need to be fervent and pray God’s will into place

The basic healing instruction is in James 5:13:  “Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.  Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed….” 

But the kicker comes in verse 16: “The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”

Fervent :  Intense and purposeful

Righteous: Right in the eyes of the Father, Righteousness is a gift from Christ.

It is God’s will to heal, but we must make it happen through our engagement and effort

James 5:17  shares how Elijah’s prayer was instrumental in executing God’s will to deploy a drought and then later rains as a way to influence Ahab. Elijah was the person who brought both of those into place though his fervent prayer.

We are the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12:27); We are His arms and legs on this earth.  He acts through us via the Holy Spirit.  If we do not have clear expectations of God’s will of healing in our mind and in our heart when we pray…folks will not be healed. 

There is a huge difference between praying for God to please come and heal someone vs taking the initiative to actually heal someone through prayer. 

Conclusion

I am now better aligned with the will of God as written in the Word and demonstrated by Jesus. I have accepted the hand-off and am committed ot continue Jesus work on earth.  I expect healing to take place. I will pray the will of god into existence on earth. I will not be satisfied until the promised signs are consistently manifesting through me as a believer.

Updaye: It has had a dramatic effect on the results of recent engagements. I look forward to sharing more dramatic healing testimonies as further evidence so others can leverage them and come into faith. 

Hope this helps someone.
