When God says, "With his stripes we are healed" we need to understand his view of healing and not just ours because He has a broader view than ours. We only view healing by the physical, after everything has cleared up then we say we are healed. But, God calls you healed right in your condition He doesn't wait until something happens to your body. Because there is a spiritual side to healing and that's what He informs you of in your condition. Like, Jesus for instance Jesus didn't wait for something to happen with a persons flesh to call...

This is the beginning of a series on Why Speak God's Word. God's word is not just for reading it's also for speaking. God's word says in Hebrews 10:23 to let us hold fast to the profession of our faith. That word profession is the same word as confession which means to say the same thing. One reason to speak God's word is his word is medicine to all your flesh in Proverbs 4:20-23 it says, 20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in...

There is a role words play in healing especially God's word that if people get a hold of they will be well on their way to receiving their healing. Because, words affect you spirit, soul, and body. In 3John 2 it says, Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. What do you prosper your soul with, words. In cases of Jesus healings he was known for saying, "According to your faith so be it done unto you" also "As thou hast believed so be it unto you" and...

What do I mean God has changed your diagnosis? In Genesis 17:4,5 God told Abraham that He had made him a father of many nations, but in Romans 4:19 the scripture says that his body was dead and his wife's womb was dead. Now, we know you can't physically be a father of many nations when you have a dead body and your wife's womb is dead. Despite that God said He had made him a father of many nations which means that God had to have done something about his and her bodies. Now, here's what you need to...

First Lady Jill Biden has given an interview to mark the end of her first year in the White house, detailing the tough tasks demanded by her self-defined role of “healing” the nation while at the same time giving hugs, love and understanding to those she can reach out to. The community college teacher told the Associated Press she found herself taking on a role of universal caring that “I didn’t kind of expect, which was like a healing role, because we’ve faced so much as a nation.”

If you are going to deal with sickness effectively it's important to know what it is. Sickness is not just physical, but it is spiritual at it's roots. That is very important as you will see. Every sickness is a manifestation of Adams sin and sin is a spiritual issue. In 1Corinthians 6:18 it says, "Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body. In other words it's not the body doing it, it's the one in the body doing it. You are not your body, just by the fact that you can be separated from it...

When you take medicine, you hope that the contents of it has the ability or power to get rid of that sickness for which you are taking it. Now, that sickness has ability or power because it is doing something to your body. Now, that medicine has power because it does something on behalf of your body. But, the thing is does the medicine have the ability or power to deal with that sickness. If the ability of the medicine is greater than the ability of the sickness then the ability of that medicine will deal with that sickness. Where...

In dealing with healing it's easy to get focused on what's happening in the body, but that's actually the opposite of what The Bible teaches. Because, actually it's what's going on in your spirit that's most important. Because, The Bible teaches that you prosper outside according to how you prosper inside. Notice, in 3John 2 it says, Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. Man is spirit, soul, and body. You are spirit and you have a soul(inside of your spirit) and you live in a body. Notice,...

I will keep you in restored health if you allow me into your heart's deepest catacombs to bring living waters of hope to touch and seal up all the cracks allowing your wellspring to rise up with Joy once again springing up with effervescent youthful visions of promised blessings (( ( 💙 ) )) Proverbs 4:23 Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life. Psalm 103:5 Who satisfies your years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the [soaring] eagle

Join with fellow FREEPERS to pray for AMERICA: For those in Authority in Government, Family, Military, Business, Healthcare, Education, Churches, and the Media.I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone: for kings and all those in authority that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. ~ 1 Timothy 2:1-2 Religion Forum Threads labeled [Prayer] are closed to debate of any kind.This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 1 JOHN 5:14

Sometimes people wonder if it's God's will for them to be healed, but I think it should be clear that God wants you healed. God doesn't have to show you his will because He already has. In Isaiah 52:14 it says, As many were astonished at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men. Do you know what that means, Jesus was so disfigured until he did not even look like a man. And yet in Isaiah 53:10 it says, Yet it pleased The Lord to bruise him (crush...

God has committed himself to healing. Think about this God is so committed to healing that He put healing in the body. If you break a bone or cut yourself the body doesn't stay that way. He put healing in the creation in Ezekiel 47:12 in the latter part of the verse it says, that the leaf of the tree shall be for medicine (healing). You and I both know that people use plants and herbs and get wonderful results. He put healing in his word, Psalm 107:20 says, He sent his word and healed them. In Proverbs 4:20-23 it...

“It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones" (Proverbs 3:8).

In Leviticus 26:4 it says, 4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. That scripture describes how the earth brings forth, the rain comes down and waters the earth, and the earth yields it's increase, and when the earth yields it's increase then that causes the seed to yield it's fruit. That also describes how man's spirit has been designed to bring forth. In Mark 4 Jesus tells the parable of the sower where he tells you the word is the...

My dear fellow FReepers, please lift my husband and my sweet kitty "Sam" up in prayer. Started behaving poorly last evening, fever, lethargy, loss of appetite, not much interested in water, and diarrhea. Not vomiting which is good. Today started treatment with cat-specialized probiotic and giving unflavored Pedialyte, from giving water plain last night to morning. Dear Lord Jesus, we don't have the funds for high vet fees. Please heal our big kitty baby. Please show us what to do. Amen.

I think one of the most powerful scriptures on healing for the most part goes untapped. Proverbs 4:20-23 says, 20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. That word health is translated medicine, remedy, healing, and cure. Did you get that, God says his word is medicine...

One thing about receiving your healing from God is knowing how he operates, because when you know how he operates then you can cooperate with him. And in 1Corinthians 1:28 it tells you, God has chosen things which are not, to bring to nought(nothing) things that are. When it says things that are not it is not talking about things that don't exist, it's talking about things that are not manifested because if it didn't exist you couldn't call it a thing. So, God has chosen things that are not manifested (spiritual) to bring to nothing things that are manifested...

A lot of people do not understand the importance and power of words. But, God puts a high value on words. Words are the key to the salvation of your spirit, soul, and body. So, if you are having a spirit, soul, or body issue the words you hear and speak are going to be the key to your salvation. Notice, in Acts 11:14 it says, "Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved." And Romans 10:10 says with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Notice, what you hear and speak is key...

I cannot remember the name of my kindergarten teacher. I cannot remember the names of any of my first grade classmates. However, I have a very vivid memory of the only word I messed up in a first grade reading group: cupboard. I read, “Cup board.” Old Mother Hubbard would have been dismayed. In the same manner, I remember the word that brought my spelling bee prowess to an end in sixth grade: restaurant. Silly things of no importance, and yet, such memories remain and can carry a sting with them. They are sorts of things that nurture and build...
