Jesus can heal you everywhere you hurt. God doesn’t just care about your spiritual part, but ever part.
“Beloved friend, I pray that you are prospering in every way and that you continually enjoy good health, just as your soul is prospering.”
3 John 1:2 TPT
https://www.bible.com/1849/3jn.1.2.tpt
God cares for our finances and material needs, our soul, and our body. God doesn’t want us to be in pain all the time, drained of energy and feeling bad all the time. You must include God even if you are taking medicine and/or going to the Doctor.
Pray and let God know that you are not just trusting a human instrument or pill but you are trusting God.
“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]. [Matt. 8:17.] 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.”
Isaiah 53:4-5 AMPC
https://www.bible.com/8/isa.53.4-5.ampc
Sozo is a word that encompases so much more than just going to Heaven. It even means healing. In the same way that Christ bore your sins yet you still sin and need forgiveness, so is it with sicknesses and diseases.
If we have Christ in us, we have the anointing in us. In the same way that people touched Christ and got healed, so is it when a brother/sister in Christ is prayed for by one of us.
“Whoever believes the good news and is baptized will be saved, and whoever does not believe the good news will be condemned. And these miracle signs will accompany those who believe: They will drive out demons in the power of my name. They will speak in tongues.”
Mark 16:16-17 TPT
https://www.bible.com/1849/mrk.16.16-17.tpt
This is not saying that I should touch a serpent, but that if anything is poisonous that bites me, I can survive and if I eat anything deadly/poisonous, I can survive. These signs follow only those that believe that these signs follow them.
There are some that Joyce says that she prays for and they get healed and others do not. But she says that we should never let confusion keep us to opperate in what we do know. Don’t try and figure out what you don’t know. Only pray in faith and let God do the rest.
Question: How can I cooperate after I pray for my healing?
“And the prayer of faith will heal the sick and the Lord will raise them up, and if they have committed sins they will be forgiven. Confess and acknowledge how you have offended one another and then pray for one another to be instantly healed, for tremendous power is released through the passionate, heartfelt prayer of a godly believer!”
James (Jacob) 5:15-16 TPT
https://www.bible.com/1849/jas.5.15-16.tpt
If someone is speaking at a conference and people need healing, this person can simply pray the prayer of faith for every person to get healed and not physically lay hands on that person. Also, if one is sick, they can go to the elders of the church like this verse says and obtain healing through the laying on of hands.
Don’t think that if you can’t find a doctor to help you, you can’t be helped. Beloved, this is not so. There is always hope in Jesus Christ. There are countries in the world where there are no medical professionals.
If Jesus is living in you, healing, victory, and the power of the Holy Spirit is in you, so don’t complain about how you always feel. God may heal you through the doctor, or He may do it supernaturally. The first thing we should do is pray.
Pray for wisdom.
There are Chapters in the Bible (Matthew 8-9) that record miracle after miracle after miracle. You can go even on behalf of others to God for healing.
Take the Word of God like medicine. Get it down on the inside of you.
“God spoke the words “Be healed,” and we were healed, delivered from death’s door!”
Psalms 107:20 TPT
https://www.bible.com/1849/psa.107.20.tpt
Remember that Jesus Christ sent the Word and heal people. For example, the Centurion’s servant. The Word is medicine for your mind, emotions, physical body, and your spirit. There is power in the Word of God.
“So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void [without producing any effect, useless], but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”
Isaiah 55:11 AMPC
https://www.bible.com/8/isa.55.11.ampc
We get some kind of fleshly kick telling others that we feel bad. It doesn’t do us any good telling people we feel bad. Sometimes, it makes us even feel worse.
Meditate on God’s Word. Pray and say, “Lord, I don’t feel so good, but I trust in Your healing power working in me. I will continually trust in and rest in You in Jesus’ name, Amen!”
“My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to my sayings. Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart. For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.”
Proverbs 4:20-22 AMPC
https://www.bible.com/8/pro.4.20-22.ampc
“saying, “If you will diligently listen and pay attention to the voice of the LORD your God, and do what is right in His sight, and listen to His commandments, and keep [foremost in your thoughts and actively obey] all His precepts and statutes, then I will not put on you any of the diseases which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am the LORD who heals you.””
Exodus 15:26 AMP
https://www.bible.com/1588/exo.15.26.amp
Don’t just meditate on how bad you feel, but on the Word of God as medicine.
Imagine this: I have a headache. I get some medicine–Alieve, Ibuprofine, whatever. I put it on my head. Is my headache gone? No. I have to let that pill dissolve.
Question: Why can’t we do the same thing with the Word of God? Selah!
“He sent His word and healed them, And rescued them from their destruction.”
Psalms 107:20 AMP
https://www.bible.com/1588/psa.107.20.amp
You can catch disease, but not health. Trust in the Lord that if even you are healthy, you will be kept that way by God.
Personal sin can be a problem. Also, the sin principle can make you sick. Don’t talk yourself into having what your family has had for generations.
