HEALING IS FOR US, TODAY!!! ~~ Intro.



First of ALL, I want to tell everyone
THAT WE CAN BE HEALED TODAY!!!  HEALING IS FOR US TODAY!!! 





We only have to believe that JESUS IS HEALING US!!!  And when we believe, we have to STAND ON HIS WORD NO MATTER WHAT WE SEE OR FEEL!!! 




It is not always easy when sickness is attacking our bodies, but we tell ourselves and our bodies that we are healed!!!  And we keep saying it and believing it!!! 




It may take a bit, but OUR BODIES WILL LINE UP WITH OUR THOUGHTS AND OUR WORDS!!!!




That is why it is so important for our words TO LINE UP WITH GOD’S WORD!!!!  That is why we keep telling ourselves that WE ARE HEALED IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!!  That’s why it is so IMPORTANT TO KEEP QUOTING THE WORD OUT LOUD TO OURSELVES!!!  (And of course, to the devil!!!!) 



Romans 10:16-17 (NKJV)


16 
But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says,
“Lord, who has believed our report?”

17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

 



If we ONLY believe the report that
JESUS HEALS ALL THOSE THAT COME TO HIM, THEN WE WILL BE HEALED!!!  





You know, you get what you believe!!!



Mark 11:22-24 (NKJV)

22 So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.

23 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.

24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.




Mark 11:22-24 (NCV)

 22 Jesus answered, "Have faith in God.

 23 I tell you the truth, you can say to this mountain, 'Go, fall into the sea.' And if you have no doubts in your mind and believe that what you say will happen, God will do it for you.

 24 So I tell you to believe that you have received the things you ask for in prayer, and God will give them to you.

 



Luke 17:6 (AMP) And the Lord answered, If you had faith (trust and confidence in God) even [so small] like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, Be pulled up by the roots, and be planted in the sea, and it would obey you.




Mark 5:25-34 (NKJV)

25 Now a certain woman had a flow of blood for twelve years,

26 and had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse.

27 When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touched His garment.

28 For she said, “If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well.”
29 Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.

30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, turned around in the crowd and said, “Who touched My clothes?”
31 But His disciples said to Him, “You see the multitude thronging You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’
32 And He looked around to see her who had done this thing.

33 But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.

34 And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.”






All throughout THE WORD OF GOD, we see GOD HEALING PEOPLE. 



Psalm 103:1-6 (NKJV)

1 Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name!

Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:

Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases,

Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,

Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
The Lord executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed.






In the OLD TESTAMENT God used the prophets to HEAL FOLKS!!!



2 Kings 5:1-14 (CEV)

1Naaman was the commander of the Syrian army. The LORD had helped him and his troops defeat their enemies, so the king of Syria respected Naaman very much. Naaman was a brave soldier, but he had leprosy.

2
One day while the Syrian troops were raiding Israel, they captured a girl, and she became a servant of Naaman's wife.

3
Some time later the girl said, "If your husband Naaman would go to the prophet in Samaria, he would be cured of his leprosy."

4
When Naaman told the king what the girl had said,

5
the king replied, "Go ahead! I will give you a letter to take to the king of Israel." Naaman left and took along seven hundred fifty pounds of silver, one hundred fifty pounds of gold, and ten new outfits.

6
He also carried the letter to the king of Israel. It said, "I am sending my servant Naaman to you. Would you cure him of his leprosy?"
7When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes in fear and shouted, "That Syrian king believes I can cure this man of leprosy! Does he think I'm God with power over life and death? He must be trying to pick a fight with me."
8As soon as Elisha the prophet heard what had happened, he sent the Israelite king this message: "Why are you so afraid? Send the man to me, so that he will know there is a prophet in Israel."

9Naaman left with his horses and chariots and stopped at the door of Elisha's house.

10Elisha sent someone outside to say to him, "Go wash seven times in the Jordan River. Then you'll be completely cured."

11But Naaman stormed off, grumbling, "Why couldn't he come out and talk to me? I thought for sure he would stand in front of me and pray to the LORD his God, then wave his hand over my skin and cure me.

12What about the Abana River or the Pharpar River? Those rivers in Damascus are just as good as any river in Israel. I could have washed in them and been cured."

13His servants went over to him and said, "Sir, if the prophet had told you to do something difficult, you would have done it. So why don't you do what he said? Go wash and be cured."

14Naaman walked down to the Jordan; he waded out into the water and stooped down in it seven times, just as Elisha had told him. Right away, he was cured, and his skin became as smooth as a child's.





GOD SENT HIS SON TO EARTH!!!!  And while Jesus was here with us, HE HEALED EVERY SICK PERSON THAT CAME TO HIM!!!  HE HEALED ALL THOSE THAT ASKED TO BE HEALED AND ALL THOSE THAT WERE BROUGHT TO HIM!!!



Matthew 4:24 (KJV) And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

 



Matthew 9:35 (NKJV)  Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

 



JESUS LAID DOWN HIS LIFE FOR US, AND HIS BLOOD CLEANSES US FROM ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS!!! 



1 John 1:7-9 (NKJV)


But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.






JESUS BLOOD REDEEMED AND CLEANSED US FROM ALL OUR SINS!!!  AND BY HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED!!!!

 

Isaiah 53:4-5 (AMP)

4Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses, weaknesses, and distresses) and carried our sorrows and pains [of punishment], yet we [ignorantly] considered Him stricken, smitten, and afflicted by God [as if with leprosy].

5But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole.



1 Peter 2:24 (CEV) Christ carried the burden of our sins.  He was nailed to the cross, so that we would stop sinning and start living right. By his cuts and bruises you are healed.





Jesus sent HIS disciples into the world to teach and preach THE GOSPEL!!!  AND TO HEAL THE SICK!!!



Mark 16:15-18 (NKJV)

15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

17 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 deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”







The events that are written in THE BIBLE are there for us as an example!!!
  God wants us to know that HE HEALED THOSE PEOPLE THEN AND HE WILL HEAL US TODAY!!!




HEALING IS FOR US TODAY!!!
