Faith Heals You.

By: Shaila T | April 12, 2017 Regardless of your affliction, you can be healed. If doctors have given you up to die, you can be healed. When your friends say your disease is incurable, you can be healed. Even though the paralyzing hand of death is upon your body, you can be healed. You must realize God uses different methods to bring healing. If you get your mind set on one way and attempt to hold God to your way you may rob yourself of God’s healing power. There are many ways God used in the past: the brazen serpent, the shadow of Peter, the troubled waters of Bethesda, dip seven times in Jordan, touching His garment, spittle and clay on blind eyes, etc. The Word of God says that: Now Faith is the substance of things hoped for. Jesus has given all of us that are born again a measure of faith. God's word teaches us what faith is and how we must learn to use our faith, we need it everyday of our lives. God's Word is so very exciting. Before you begin reading through the study, ask the Holy Spirit to open your mind and teach you, and don't forget to get your bible. Heb. 12:2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. Rom. 10:17 Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. John. 17:17 Thy word is truth. John. 16:13 The Holy Spirit guides us into all truth. Ps. 119:105 Your word is a lamp unto my feet and a light for my path. God's word is so simple, that we almost miss it, we add to it, subtract from it, and read between the lines. But we need to learn to totally trust God and accept his word as the Holy Spirit teaches us and do it! Isa. 53:4-5 Surely He hath borne our grief's, and carried our sorrows: (weakness, pain, sickness) yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with His stripes we are healed. I Pet. 2:24 Who His own self bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes you were healed. Jesus already healed us when He was beaten and put to death on the cross. We now need to learn to receive our healing. Mk. 11:22-24 Have Faith In God. I tell you the truth, if anyone Says to this mountain (i.e. any problem, sickness, whatever) throw yourself into the sea, and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him! Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, BELIEVE that you have RECEIVED IT and it WILL be yours. Heb. 11:2 NOW faith is being sure of what we hope for and being certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the earth was formed by God's command: so that what is seen was not made of what was visible. HOW MUCH FAITH DO WE NEED ? Mt. 17:20 The disciples could not heal because they were unbelieving and because they had so little faith. Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth, If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, then you can say to this mountain, "Move from here to there" and it Will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. Luke. 17:5-6 The apostles said to Jesus, "Increase our Faith" Jesus replied, If you have faith as small as a mustard seed you can say to this mulberry tree, "Be uprooted and be planted in the sea" And it will obey you. Notice he didn't say OK, he told them that a small amount was sufficient. Rm. 12:3 ...Think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the Measure of faith God has given you. Ja. 1:6-8 When you ask you must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave in the sea, tossed by the wind. The doubter will not think he will receive anything from God, he is a double minded man, unstable in all he does. FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH I Tim. 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith. Eph. 6:10-17 Take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one (Satan). Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of the dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day comes that Satan tries to attack us we may be able to stand our ground, and after you have done everything to stand. Stand firm then, with the Belt of Truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place and with your feet shod with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to this take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. I Cor. 16:13 Be on your guard; Stand Firm in the faith, have courage, be strong. I Pet. 5:8-9 Be self controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith. Phil. 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. Rm. 10:17 Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Rm. 10:8 Thy word is near me, even in my mouth, and in my heart, that is the word of faith. THERE ARE MANY INSTANCES OF FAITH IN THE BIBLE Mt. 9:27-29 The blind man asked Jesus to have mercy on him and heal him. Jesus asked him "Do you believe that I am able to do this. Yes Lord, he said. Jesus said, according to your faith it will be done to you. Acts 14:9 Paul saw that the man had the faith to be healed, so he said "stand up on your feet" and the man jumped up and walked. Luke 5:20 Jesus saw the faith of these men, through their actions (Lowering the man through the roof to get him to Jesus). Jesus forgave the man and healed him. Mt. 14:24-31 Jesus told Peter to come on the water towards him, Peter began to walk on the water, then he began to look at the waves and wind and began to sink. He started looking towards what he could see and feel and not on Jesus. Jesus said to him "O ye of little faith, Why did you doubt"? Acts 3:16 By faith in the name of Jesus, this man was made whole. It is Jesus name and the faith that comes through him that has given this man complete healing. Mk. 9:21-29 A man's son was demon possessed. He asked Jesus But if you can do anything, take pity us and help us. Jesus said If you can, you say to me! Everything is possible to him who believes. Luke 8:50 Jesus was telling the man: Don't be afraid; just believe and your daughter will be healed. OUR HEALING COMES BY FAITH Jesus has completed his part, He died for us, he has forgiven our sins and by His stripes we were healed. III John :2 Beloved I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in good health. When we say we can't get healed, our words are already talking for us. (If we say I hope, I'll get better or maybe, I'm not sure, I'm not worthy). These are all negative. We need to BELIEVE when we ask God and talk the talk of faith. Thank you for my healing, speak positive words, rebuke Satan, stand firm until the manifestation comes. * It's not something big that keeps us from being healed -- NO it's our own wrong thinking and our own declaration of unbelief. * Many things happen because we expect them to happen in a certain way. They happen because we believe and talk it and it comes to pass as we believe (either for the good or bad). (I feel so sick today, my parents had heart problems so I guess I will too, after 40 we get arthritis, I'm as blind as a bat without my glasses, I was scarred to death etc.). * Begin today to watch over the words you say out of your mouth, correct all the bad things to positive things. ( No I will not get the flu, Thank you Father for your healing and I am not in line for heart problems etc.). * We prepare to fail-- We think it, believe it, then do it. * As believers we have no business talking doubt, failure or fear! We should talk faith! * If I believe the opposite of what God's word says, then I stop Jesus healing of me right in it's tracks. * If Satan can keep our faith from being released in Jesus-- then he can keep us sick, poor and in TOTAL MISERY. * If you are at the bottom of the ladder, it is because you have not believed for more. If we talk right and believe right, then we will climb to the top. * Doubt and fear go hand in hand and are of the devil. Faith and love go hand in hand and are of God. I John. 4:18 Perfect love casts out fear. * Every spirit filled believer has within him the power to claim God's best for us. If we are living beneath our privileges, it is not because of lack of power, but because of a failure to release that power through faith. * Once you have prayed in faith you must stand your ground until the manifestation comes. This is extremely important. Do not let Satan, your own flesh, or anyone else talk you our of your healing. Jesus has already healed you, it is now up to you to fight the good fight of faith. Stand firm on the Word and believe God for results. Give God His own timing, not ours to do something with our circumstances. Eph. 6:10-14 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is NOT against the flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything , to stand. STAND FIRM!
