Both our sin and our sickness were borne by Jesus on the cross. We saw that in Isaiah 53.
Summarising some of the other key truths examined over previous sessions.
There is no room for doubt that it is God’s will to heal and healing is provided for ALL.
Knowing God’s will concerning sickness provides the ground on which faith can rest.
Faith begins where the will of God is known.
Jesus removed all doubt by saying I am willing be cleansed
Jesus in the flesh was the physical expression of the will of God. When Christ healed all those who came to Him He was revealing and doing His Father’s will. The Father’s will has not changed.
The bible clearly reveals the will of God in regard to healing and no special revelation is needed.
It is still the will of God to heal ALL who have need of healing.
If God will heal anyone He will heal me.
God has revealed 1 of His names as Yahweh Ropheka I AM the Lord who heals you. It is part of His very nature to heal.
Healing is part of the Gospel that is for all and to be preached to all.
Faith takes hold of what the grace of God has already provided.
We saw how faith blows the rams horn before not after the walls come down (Jericho).
Faith looks not at the things which are seen but at the things which are unseen.
Faith is what we have before we see, feel and experience healing.
Faith is both rational and safe being based on the very best possible evidence of God’s Word.
It is like a title deed – we have to move in and possess what the deed says is ours.
God has made His move and healing is provided.
Our move is to believe His word then we can begin to see His word fulfilled in our mortal bodies.
The truth when it is believed changes adverse facts because God’s word has spiritual power. We do not have to pretend physical symptoms do not exist but know that they will be changed by the higher truth of Gods Word when it is believed.
We have to take hold of our healing by faith and firmly shut the door on unbelief.
Speak to your mountain. Speak to your sickness and command it to go in Jesus name rather than asking God to do it.
Cooperatewith the Holy Spirit in the process of renewing our minds by combating negative influences and thoughts.
Doubt the doubts believe the truth. Come against doubts with the word of God.
Believe God's word. Trust His word. Know the creative power of His word then you can and will act on His word.
If God says I am the Lord that heals you, and you dare to believe the power of these wonderful words, you will act on them.
I could give you a basket of fruit or give you the keys to the orchard and say anytime you want just go and pick your own. I believe I have placed into your hands the keys to the orchard.
Healing is normally received through faith and a relationship with Christ the healer not by a formula or method however there are principles and laws that we have looked at in the Word and these guide us.
Now you realise where sickness comes from and it is not the will of your loving heavenly Father that you are sick it is time to approach Him in humility and faith.
Jesus said These signs shall follow those who believe, in my name they shall cast out devils …they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. Mark 16:17-18
Ask and you shall receive that your joy may be full John 16:24
For everyone that asks receives Matt.7:8
The reason you can call on the Lord right now and be healed of your physical infirmities and diseases is that Jesus Christ Himself suffered all of them for you. He did it willingly as your substitute so that you could be healed.
He took upon Himself all the physical consequences of your sinful nature so that He could come into your life as your physical healer and spiritual saviour. See Is.53.4-6
