HEALING IS GOD'S WILL!

Are you seeking to have faith for a healing? If you have faith in God, all things are possible. If you will believe in your heart, that “healing is always God's will,” this mindset can “remove” all doubt. And doubt is the enemy of faith.

There is no record of Jesus ever refusing a sick person who came to Him.

On the contrary, it is recorded that Jesus healed “all” who came to Him (Matthew 8:16,12:15; Luke 6:19). He was never too tired, exasperated or in too much of a hurry to heal those who had faith and came to Him. Jesus came to fulfill the Father's will. He told us many times, that He came to do only “what He sees the Father do” (John 8:26; John 5:19, 30; John 14:10, 24). The obvious conclusion is that it was the “will of the Father,” to heal those who are asked Him to do so. And since we know that God does not change, it still must be so (Hebrews 13:8).

Also, there are no verses in the Bible saying or suggesting: “Stay sick, it is not God's will to be healed.” To have such a mindset, has been a convenient excuse to justify the prayers that did not end with the healing of the sick person.

Sickness is NOT of God. Sickness entered this world, when Adam and Eve disobeyed God through the curse of sin. Sickness came as part of the curse. Man chose to disobey the one and only command that God had given to that point, which was to not eat from the knowledge tree of good and evil (Genesis 2:16).

Luke, being led by the Holy Spirit, identified that sicknesses can be oppression by the devil:

Acts 10:38
“how 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”

Also, Matthew, associates sicknesses with the evil spirits.

Matthew 8:16-17
“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, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:“He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses.”

And the very well known verse about who Jesus says that Satan is,

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

1 John 3:8 “He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.”

Man is a spiritual being that has a soul and dwells in a physical body.

Genesis 1:27 “So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him;”

As God is Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and all three are one, so are we: spirit, soul and body. The promises of the Old and New Testament are available to those who are right with God, being born again in their “inner man”, in their spirit, through the Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ bore in His body on the cross, all our sicknesses, diseases, stress, traumas, fears, anxieties.

There is no sickness or suffering that was not included in what Jesus suffered and bore, in our place, which means that we don't have to “bear” them anymore.

Isaiah 53:4-5 “Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.”

Isaiah prophesied this about 460 years previous to Christ being crucified and was showing that healing was available at the moment of writing it. The apostle Peter wrote that through the crucifixion our healing was fulfilled. We just have to access it by faith.

Life before Christ was quite different in that God used priests and prophets at intermediaries between people and Him. Since Jesus came, we have direct access to God and through Him, all we need.

In the days of the Old Testament, those who needed a healing, had to go to their prophets and priests, who had the anointing of the Holy Spirit, as God used them to accomplish His works. Now, the Holy Spirit has come to dwell in believers, since the sacrifice, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ, transforming them into “born again believers.” The healing is given by Father God, in the Name of Jesus Christ and is coming into fruition in the sick person's body, through the Holy Spirit.

The “salvation” received through Jesus, includes health. The term in the Greek language, used in original in the New Testament, for salvation is “SOZO,” which mainly means according to NAS, New Testament Greek Lexicon:

“To save, keep safe and sound, to rescue from danger or destruction, to save a suffering one (from perishing), one suffering from disease, to make well, heal, restore to health, messianic salvation.

So, on the cross, Jesus not only provided us with the eternal life, but also with health for our bodies, as long as we live on earth.

God healed those who sought and believed in Him in the days of the Old Testament and New Testament; and He still continues to heal today, because He wants His children to be healthy.

Exodus 23:25-26
“So you shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days.”

Malachi 4:2
“But to you who fear My name, the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; and you shall go out and grow fat like stall-fed calves.”

Psalms 103:2-3
“Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases”

It is our duty, as children of God, to believe the Bible in its entirety. The faith that moves mountains, won't appear in our hearts without personal effort. Studying the Bible on daily basis and living what we study, will cause us to mature and live victorious, in healthy bodies.
