I talk to a lot of people and ask them if they will accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. Most of the time, I hear this response: “I believe, but not now.” I hear it so much I can almost finish the sentence for them. Most people that are healthy take it for granted. This is fact. I’ve done it; a lot of people do. Notice that I didn’t say everybody? Most people think sickness happens to other people.
God has a plan for you regarding your health. Here it is in a nutshell:
3 John 1:2 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)
2Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
GOD WANTS YOU WELL!
I mention this because a few years ago I was ministering to a young girl in another state who had (what they called) terminal cancer. As I began to introduce her to God’s plan I noticed that she didn’t seem to believe me. I asked her what was wrong and she explained the following which I am not making up:
Her pastor from her church came to see her at the hospital and told her that God was punishing her because she got married without telling him (the pastor). She attended a small church in a small town and had not been taught much at all about the bible by her pastor. Perhaps he just didn’t know. Can you believe that?
That is horrible and a lie from the pit of hell! I assured her that God’s not some punishing God whose aim it is to teach you a lesson.
SO FAILURE TO BEING HEALED IS NOT AN OPTION.
But, you do have to do some things. Thinking and hoping you’ll be healed isn’t enough.
Let me give you some scriptures to think about:
I will give you back your health again and heal your wounds. Jeremiah 30:17
God is our (my) refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalms 46:1
My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; keep them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those who find them, and health to all their whole body. Proverbs 4:20-22 NAS
He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” Psalm 107: “I will heal my people and will let them enjoy abundant peace and security.” Jeremiah 33:6 NIV
“If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and laws, then I will not make you suffer the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you.” Exodus 15:26 NLT
“Worship the Lord your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you, and none will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will give you a full life span.” Exodus 23:25-26 NIV 20 NAS
“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.” Isaiah 58:11 NLT
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. 1 Peter 2:24 NIV
When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick. This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: “He took up our infirmities and carried our diseases.” Matthew 8:16-17 NIV
And as Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, and saying, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” And after He had come into the house, the blind men came up to Him, and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.” Then He touched their eyes, saying, “Be it done to you according to your faith.” And their eyes were opened. Matthew 9:27-30 NAS
***If you will immerse yourself in healing scriptures you’ll soon realize that God wants you well. Always remember that failure is not an option!
