praying for HEALING

Tweet

the Bible emphasizes the power of faith. to gain healing and health through faith and prayer, one must follow four essential steps: 1. substantial belief that God can and will heal. 2. belief in the combined use of medical science and religious faith. 3. removal of the spiritual hindrances to healing such as sin and wrong attitudes. 4. acceptance of God's will for our lives and of His answer to our prayers. let us consider these four steps. 1. the Bible says, ..."he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is rewarder of them that diligently seek Him" (Hebrews 11:6). either there is a God or there is not a God. if there is a God, either He can effectively use His power in our minds and bodies or He cannot. if God can, then He will either hear and answer our prayers or He will not. either you do believe or you do not believe. we recall the father who brought his sick son to Christ. He said"...if thou canst do any thing..." But the Master corrected him, " if thou canst believe..." (Mark 9:22,23). the "if" is not in reference to God- the "if" is with us. it all depends on whether or not we believe. no person believes perfectly, neither does any person doubt completely. within every one of us is both belief and doubt. the question is, which do we hold before us? if you will begin by emphasizing your belief, by practicing what faith you have, it will grow. you believe something about God; what is it? that is the place for you to begin.
