WHY DON’T FOLKS BELIEVE IN HEALING TODAY???



HEALING IS US FOR TODAY!!!


Yes, TODAY!!!  And, YES, even in the world that we live in!!!


Nowhere is the Bible does it say that HEALING has passed away!!! 


This has been on my mind for the last couple of weeks. 


I just don’t understand how any CHURCH can say that they believe the WORD OF GOD, but NOT TEACH IT??? 


How can you say, I believe in GOD, BUT NOT TEACH HIS WORD???


How can any PREACHER, whether a Man or a Woman of GOD, stand in the pulpit, and NOT PREACH ALL OF GOD’S WORD???


I JUST DO NOT UNDERSTAND!!!! 


HEALING is part of THE WORD OF GOD!!! 


We do NOT get to pick and choose!!!!  We have to “eat the whole roll.”  We have to eat the whole WORD OF GOD!!!  GOD told this same thing to HIS SERVANT, John, when John was writing Revelations, and before him to the prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel. 


Revelation 10:8-11 (KJV)

And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.

And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.

10 And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.

11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.


You know, many folks are going to be in TROUBLE when they have to stand before the JUDGEMENT SEAT OF CHRIST!!! 


There are so many sick and dying people in this world.  There are so many that are suffering!!!  There are so many that have diseases and are in pain!!! 


How can you say, I AM HIS CHILD, and watch folks die in ignorance, or even worse, live and suffer in ignorance?


IF YOU ARE ONE OF GOD’S CHILDREN, then YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO SPREAD HIS WORD!!!  And not just PART OF THE WORD!!!  ALL OF IT!!!!


Mark 16:15 (NKJV) And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.


Part of this very gospel that JESUS preached is that you can be HEALED!!!  JESUS taught about healing and HIS disciples taught about HEALING!!!


PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW THAT THEY CAN COME TO JESUS AND BE HEALED!!!!  Even today they can come and be healed!!!  GOD IS STILL IN THE HEALING BUSINESS!!!!



I have a hard time understanding why so many folks claim to be saved, but don’t believe what The Bible-THE WORD OF GOD-says!!!


I just want to scream at everyone, OPEN UP YOUR BIBLE, PEOPLE!!!  READ YOUR BIBLE!!! 


And while I realize that folks (people) have a responsibility to read their own Bibles, there are so many more folks who are to blame!!! 


As I was writing this, the answer became so clear!!!


People do NOT believe that HEALING IS FOR THEM TODAY, because they are NOT BEING TAUGHT!!! 


PREACHERS and CHURCHES ARE NOT TEACHING THE WHOLE WORD OF GOD!!!  If they were teaching THE WHOLE WORD OF GOD, then they would have to preach and teach THAT HEALING IS FOR ANYONE and EVERYONE WHO WILL ACCEPT IT!!! 


HEALING IS FOR ALL THOSE WHO WILL RECEIVE IT!!!  And HEALING IS FOR US TODAY!!!! 


People do NOT BELIEVE IN HEALING today, because they HAVE NOT BEEN TAUGHT THAT JESUS HEALS!!! 


Folks are NOT being taught THE WHOLE WORD OF GOD!!!  They are NOT being taught that they can be HEALED!!! 


The Bible says, My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge.  I looked up this scripture and you will NOT believe how it describes the time that we live in today!! 


Hosea 4:1-2, 6 (NKJV)

1 Hear the word of the Lord,

You children of Israel,
For the Lord brings a charge against the inhabitants of the land:
“There is no truth or mercy 
Or knowledge of God in the land.

By swearing and lying,
Killing and stealing and committing adultery,
They break all restraint,
With bloodshed upon bloodshed.


My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also will reject you from being priest for Me;
Because you have forgotten the law of your God,
I also will forget your children.


IF WE, AS PREACHERS, do NOT do our jobs and PREACH THE WHOLE WORD OF GOD, then we will have to answer to GOD.


And quite frankly, I have no intention of having to stand before GOD and explain to HIM why I didn’t do my job-why I didn’t preach HEALING-WHY I ALLOWED FOLKS TO SUFFER AND BE IN PAIN when they didn’t have to suffer or be in pain or die from some sickness or disease!!!



THE WORD OF GOD tells us that Jesus died to save us from our sins and most folks seem to know this, but that isn’t the ONLY REASON that JESUS DIED on the cross!!! 


Our sins are NOT the ONLY things that JESUS, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, took to the cross with HIM!!!  HE took sickness and disease, pain and suffering with HIM to the cross.  JESUS took poverty and lack with HIM to the cross.

Isaiah 53:3-6 Amplified Bible (AMP)

He was despised and rejected and forsaken by men, a Man of sorrows and pains, and acquainted with grief and sickness; and like One from Whom men hide their faces He was despised, and we did not appreciate His worth or have any esteem for Him.

Surely 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].

But 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.

All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord has made to light upon Him the guilt and iniquity of us all.


But that’s the Old Testament!!! 


Well, this is the New Testament!!!


1 Peter 2:24 (NKJV) 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.


Could it be any plainer???  Because they whipped JESUS on the cross-because of HIS stripes-
WE WERE and WE ARE HEALED!!!
