Healing Scriptures

Here are some "healing scriptures" from the God of Israel, sent to His people through the prophet Isaiah. (Chapter 58) These words reveal God's heart which many people misunderstand...

"What good is fasting when you keep on fighting and quarreling? This kind of fasting will never get you anywhere with me.

You humble yourselves by going through the motions of penance, bowing your heads like a blade of grass in the wind. You dress in sackcloth and cover yourselves with ashes. Is this what you call fasting? Do you really think this will please the Lord?

"No, the kind of fasting I want calls you to free those who are wrongly imprisoned and to stop oppressing those who work for you. Treat them fairly and give them what they earn.

I want you to share your food with the hungry and to welcome poor wanderers into your homes. Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help.

"If you do these things, your salvation will come like the dawn. Yes, your healing will come quickly. Your godliness will lead you forward, and the glory of the Lord will protect you from behind.

Then when you call, the Lord will answer. `Yes, I am here,' he will quickly reply. "Stop oppressing the helpless and stop making false accusations and spreading vicious rumors!

Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as day.

The Lord will guide you continually, watering your life when you are dry and keeping you healthy, too. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring."

God's will for us...

Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope (an expected end)." NOTE - The word for peace in Hebrew is the word "shalom" and implies the meaning of health and prosperity, which is obvisously His will for us. Begin to expect it also!

The Word Of God Brings Healing!

Romans 10:17 "So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God." NOTE - Faith for healing comes by hearing God's Word concerning healing. So just as you may be taking medicine two or three times a day, do the same thing with the promises in the Word of God regarding healing, and allow your faith to be built up! You'll be amazed at what will take place.

John 8:32 "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." NOTE - The Word of God is truth see John 17:17. Once you know the truth concerning healing in God's redemptive plan, then you can begin to exercise faith and expect the promises of God to manifest in you.

John 15:7 "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you."

Jeremiah 1:12 ". . . . I am alert and active watching over My Word to perform it." Amplified NOTE - God is looking, searching eagerly for someone to take Him at His Word so that He can perform it on their behalf.

Healing Is A Good Gift From God!

James 1:17 "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning." NOTE - Healing is a wonderful gift from God, and here again is another proof that He does not change. What He did yesterday He will do again today! He is still the Healer!!!

Romans 11:29 "For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable." NOTE - He's the giver of gifts and He doesn't take them back or cancel them out!

We Have Been Redeemed Out From Under The Bondage Of Sickness & Disease!

1 John 3:8 "For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil." Take a look at this same verse in the Amplified version - "The reason the Son of God was made manifest (visible) was to undo (destroy, loosen, and dissolve) the works the devil [has done]." NOTE -There is no doubt that sickness and disease are works of the devil, introduced to mankind through the fall as part of the curse. This Scripture is very clear that Jesus came to undo the works of the devil. He accomplished His task, further proof that sickness and disease have no legal right to remain in your body as a "reborn" child of God! How Can I Know God Is REAL?

2 Corinthians 3:17 "Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." NOTE - If you are born-again, if you've asked Jesus to come into your heart, then you are saved, you are a child of God and the Spirit of God dwells within your heart - make no mistake about it! Therefore, according to Scripture, freedom and liberty from bondage in any form belong to you, and you should expect it. It's your "covenant" right as a believer in Jesus Christ.

John 8:36 "Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed." The Amplified version reads: "So if the Son liberates you [makes you free men], then you are really and unquestionably free." Let this truth of victory soak deep into your heart and dispell all thoughts of doubt and fear. Praise God, sickness and disease have no right to be in us, they cannot stay, they have to go!

We Can Have Confidence In Him, For God Cannot Lie!

Titus 1:2 says, This truth gives them the confidence of eternal life, which God promised them before the world began-and He cannot lie. God does NOT even have the capacity to lie or NOT tell the truth! If He said it, it will happen!

I John 5:14-15 "Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him." NOTE - It's easy to know the will of God. The Word of God is the will of God! Jeremiah 1:12 says that He watches over His Word to perform it. So when you ask and believe the Word of God, you are asking and believing according to His will and you will receive, just as it says!

Base Your Faith On The Promises Of God.

Deuteronomy 30:19-20 "I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them." NOTE - Just as it was when this was spoken to the children of Israel, it is true for us today - we need to make up our minds and choose life - it is there for us. When we do, then we must adhere to the prescribed formula for that life: that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice (His Word), and that you may cling to Him. Fall in love with Jesus, fall in love with the Word, health and life will be a natural result!

Psalm 91:16 "With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation."

Psalm 118:17 "I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD." God has a plan for your life here on the Earth. Don't let the enemy steal it away. You can do what God says you can do, you can be what God says you can be!
