APRIL 15th-22nd, 2009
scriptures printed in red are words spoken by JESUS
THE FOLLOWING BIBLE TRANSLATIONS WERE USED FOR THIS BIBLE STUDY:
FAITH HEALING
One dictionary defines faith as: belief in, devotion to, or trust in somebody or something, especially without logical proof.
Let's review just a few, of many scriptures in the Bible, that talk about
FAITH.
Now let's look at some Bible Verses that show how through faith,
MIRACULOUS HEALING
was [and still is today] obtained.
MAN BELIEVING IN JESUS HEALED OF LEPROSY
ROMAN OFFICER HAS FAITH FOR HIS SERVANT'S HEALING
Matthew 8:5-13 NKJV - 5/ Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him, 6/ saying, "Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented." 7/ And Jesus said to him, "I will come and heal him." 8/ The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only SPEAK A WORD, and my servant will be healed. 9/ "For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, "Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, Do this,' and he does it." 10/ When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, "Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not in Israel! 11/ "And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. 12/ "But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." 13/ Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way; and AS YOU HAVE BELIEVED, SO LET IT BE DONE FOR YOU." And his servant was healed that same hour.

FAITH IN GOD COMES BY HEARING GOD'S WORD [ROMANS 10:17]
In the book of Numbers 23:19 NKJV - we read, *God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?* He gave us His word to heal us [Isaiah 53:5 NKJV - I Peter 2;24 NKJV], and Jeremiah 1:12 KJV scripture says, He hastens His word to perform it. Isaiah 55:11 KJV, lets us know it accomplishes and prospers in the thing whereto He sends it.
Acts 10:34 KJV states - "God is no respector of persons."
What God does for one He'll do for another. We can pray to God, our Heavenly Father, in Jesus name for healing [please read John 14:13, 14 * Acts 4:10, * Acts 9:33, 34 & Colossians 3:17]. We must pray in faith, not wavering or doubting; because James 1:6-8 NKJV says, 6/ But let him ASK IN FAITH WITH NO DOUBTING, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7/ For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8/ he is a double-minded man unstable in all his ways. WE MUST BELIEVE AND KNOW that Father God will heal and deliver us from all sickness, disease, and any destructive habits that keep us in bondage. In Luke 8:50, Jesus said, "FEAR NOT: ONLY BELIEVE, and she shall be made whole.
If we're allowing our mind to entertain unbelief, and can't seem to bind (Matthew 18:18), or stop thoughts of doubting God to heal and deliver us or others we're praying for, we can humbly cry out to Jesus to help us conquer fear, doubt, and unbelief, like the father in the Bible who asked Jesus to help his unbelief for deliverance and healing for his epiletic son. Mark 9:23, 24NKJV - 23/ Jesus said to him, "IF YOU CAN BELIEVE, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO HIM WHO BELIEVES." 24/ Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!"
It is our Heavenly Father's will for us to be in good health [III John 2]
When sickness comes upon us, and even while we have no visible signs of getting well, we can PRAY IN FAITH FOR HEALING AND BELIEVE GOD to manifest the healing in our body, as we:
CONFESS BY FAITH, I AM HEALED!
James 5:13-15 NKJV - 13/ Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. 14/ 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.
PSALM 103:2,3 NKJV - 2/ BLESS THE LORD, O MY SOUL, AND FORGET NOT ALL HIS BENEFITS: 3/ WHO FORGIVES ALL YOUR INIQUITIES, WHO HEALS ALL YOUR DISEASES
PSALM 147:3 NKJV - HE HEALS THE BROKENHEARTED AND BINDS UP THEIR WOUNDS
BE HEALED IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!!
