ARE YOU ABLE TO HEAL THE SICK?

[Doug]

Yes. a 78 yr old lady called me and said she hurt her back and can't move. I came over, layed my hands on her and prayed for her back to be healed. Before I got to my car in the driveway, she walked out and caught me and said she was healed. God is merciful and can work through people.

So you say you can heal.......I am not being flip but how many people would you say you have healed?

Christians believe they can be healed. Non-Christians do not know. I have prayed for and healed non-Christians and they do not give God the credit. They believe they just got better, or the medicine worked. I've heard that.

thanks

 

[MatthewG]

If I could I would heal myself HaHa

I dont think so either................I think most would say they base this on this verse..................[Mat 17:20 KJV] 20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Take a look at what scripture says about faith and healing

[Mat 10:1 KJV] 1 And when he had called unto [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power [against] unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.

Jesus gave them power to heal

[Mar 4:40 KJV] 40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faiith?

[Mat 16:8 KJV] 8 [Which] when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?

Was the power to heal based on having enough faith? The disciples power to heal was not based on faith

Why do you think they were given the ability to do so? I think it was to show that their message was true.

While people were healed in that day, like the lady with the 12 year blood problem going to the doctors and never finding healing. Yeshua healed her, and I believe there is a spiritual lesson here, that even in 12 years of lostness, there is completion within looking to Yeshua, as ones Lord and Savior, and that healing would of course be of the heart at least to me.

I was just talking to my mother today as we were shopping, I said I wish there was something that I could do to feel better, but as we continue to grow older, we are gonna have good days and bad days, and while exercise helps on some, godliness is the better place to be. Godliness means having a devotion towards Yahavah, in and through and out ones life, of aches, and pains, and slowly up to the point of death.

yes right

[Mar 16:20 KJV] 20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with [them], and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
