Believe for your Healing

Scriptures to believe for your healing.

Luke 5:12-13 And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” 13 Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him.

It is almost always God’s will for us to be healed.

Isaiah 53:4-5
4 Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 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.

Jesus purchased our healing at the cross.

Matthew 7:7-11 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

You must ask!

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

He healed them ALL!

Matthew 18:19-20 “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”
Get others to agree with you in your prayer for healing.

Psalm 103:1-3 Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name!2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:3 Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases.

ALL means ALL!

Psalm 30:2 O LORD my God, I cried out to You, And You healed me.

1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.

Notice it says that you were headed. The healing is completed, bought and paid for, you just need to claim it.

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

Jesus still heals today!

James 5:14-16 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. 15 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. 16 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.

Mark 16:17-18 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything ly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

It helps greatly to have someone lay their hands upon you and agree with you for your healing.

Hindrances to divine healing.

Lack of faith. Faith comes by the Word of God. Keep reading the above scriptures!
Unforgiveness toward someone. Forgive whomever it is you need to forgive.
Unrepentant sin in the person’s life. Repent and stop habitual sinning.
God may still decide to heal people despite the above problems, he is sovereign.

Reasons for delayed healing.

God’s sovereign unknown will.
God wants to use a physician.
God wants to test and/or build our faith.
Lack of faith for immediate healing.
