We tend to think, that if some Christian is an anointed man of God, and God heals people through him, then he can not get sick. But, that kind of an idea, is far from the truth.
A person can be mightily used by God, and even have a healing ministry, but that does not guarantee, that he can not get sick. God has provided and guaranteed our healing, but he has not guaranteed Christians being unable to get sick. Why am I asserting that? Because of the man, who wrote most of the New Testament, Apostle Paul. If we read in Galatians 4:13, 14, we can see, that even Apostle Paul was at one time sick, while he preached the Gospel, to the Galatians people. And it is written, that the people in Galatia, to whom Paul preached the gospel, did not treat him with contempt, because of his illness. Now that is a very important principle, for us Christians to know, that if we see a Christian sick, we should not think that he does not have enough faith, to be healed, or treat him with a scorn, just like the Galatia people, who did not treat with scorn, Apostle Paul, because of his illness. If Apostle Paul was sick, for whatever reason, does it mean, that he did not have enough faith? No, I do not think so, because Paul was one of the followers of Jesus, who was used to see God heal people, when he prayed for them. Paul definitely had strong faith in God, for healing people by prayer, but we do not know for sure, why exactly, he was sick, while preaching the Gospel, at the same time. So, if we as Christians get sick, we should not give hope, that God will heal us, and it does not mean, that we do not have enough faith, to be healed. Sometimes, we do not know exactly, why some people do not get healed, even if they display a great faith for their healing, and even if they are mightily used by God. But that does not mean, that they should not continue to have faith and hope in God, for their healing, because our healing for us as Christians, has been already provided for us by God, by the death of Jesus on the cross, and by his resurrection from the grave. All we have to do, is just accept our healing by faith, and thank God for our healing, because by the wounds of Jesus, we have been healed, just as the Bible says so!

God does not care, where you come from, what you past has been, or what you have done in the past, in order to heal you! He does not heal you because you are from America, Europe, Asia or any country in the world. He does not heal you, because you are a good or bad person, according to your own estimation! No, He heals you, because of only one and only one reason, because of what Jesus Christ has done for us on the cross, and by his resurrection which we believe! That is it! Our healing is already provided for us from God the Father, through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ from the grave!
When we read Luke 7:1-10, we can see that Jesus healed the servant of certain man, the Centurion. Now, that man was not even a Jew himself, but was one of the enemies of the Jews, the Romans who occupied their own country. And yet, Jesus healed his servant. Based on what? Was it because that Centurion build the Jews a Synagogue? I doubt it. There was only one reason, why Jesus decided to heal the servant of that Centurion, and that reason was the faith of the Centurion, about which even the Son of God marvelled and commented about. Faith in the heart of the Centurion about what Jesus said and did, was what caused Jesus to perform the miracle. Jesus could easily say to him that he can not heal his servant, because he was not even a Jew, but a gentile, a Roman pagan, who was a soldier, with the possible background of killing people, on the battle field, and as a Roman soldier, being ready to obey any command from Cesar, his king in Rome, even if that meant, killing or hurting the Jews, in a certain way. And yet, Jesus overlooked all the background of that Roman Centurion, and everything to do with his background, as a Roman soldier, an enemy of the Jews by law, and healed his servant. It is amazing that Jesus was amazed by the faith of a such a man like the Roman Centurion. You maybe thinking, that you do not deserve Jesus to heal you, because of what you have done in the past, or because people have labeled you, as bad person, or because some people said, that you are not worthy or you do not deserve to be healed. Forget about all that crap! Just look at what mercy and how much grace Jesus had for this pagan, a Roman soldier, considering only his faith, and nothing else. Jesus was like 'closing his eyes' to the background of the Roman Centurion, and was interested only in his faith. That is all that Jesus is interested in order to heal you too! Your own faith in him, and his Word! That is it! He will also 'close his eyes' to all your background, where you come from, what you have done in the past, and will heal you, grabbing the little faith you have in him, in order to grant you healing, which was provided for you on the cross, long time ago anyway. Just grab it by faith and thank him, and give him glory! Jesus heals today! That is the truth, and that is a fact!
You may wonder sometimes, why you have not received your healing from God. And there are Christians who have not received their healing yet, all over the world, but, the reality from heaven and the truth in the Word of God is, that God wants to heal you, and he does heal, many people, everywhere, right at this moment, all over the world. Cancer is according to many medical doctors, incurable disease, but not according to God. Today, there are many people being healed by faith in Jesus and the Word of God, the Bible, from all sorts of cancers, in many places of the world. You must know, that cancer, whatever stage or type it is, is still curable today, by God. All that God requires, is faith in his Word, and his promises. How do you explain the fact, that today, there are so many people healed from the worst cases of cancer, in many different countries, just by believing that Jesus will heal them? The author of this posts, has been an eyewitness, of how God heals people from cancer, in various places of the world. All that was required before the healing, is just a simple faith in God, and his Word. That was it. Not a big faith, but even a small faith which can move a mountain. In Matthew 8:16, 17, we can see, that Jesus healed all those people, who came to him for healing. It is interesting to notice, that not every person who came to Jesus for healing, and was healed, was a Jew, or a Christian. Many of those people were even non religious people, and many also came to be healed by Jesus, from other countries like Syria, and not only from Israel, and yet, Jesus healed them, because he had compassion for them. There are thousands of testimonies on the Internet today, of people being healed of all types of cancer by faith in God and his Word. The miracles of healing from God, by faith in Jesus and his Word, are still real and valid today. If you are suffering from any type of cancer, try faith in Jesus, ask him to heal you, and believe that he does, and you just receive your healing from him by faith, and thank him for that! The very original Greek word for 'Salvation' in the Bible, also means 'healing', so everything has been provided by God already, including your healing, by what Jesus did on the cross for us. Just receive by faith that provided already healing from Jesus by his death on the cross, and thank him for that, even if you do not see immediate result! God's will for you is to heal you! No question about it!
Old Testament or New Testament, the Bible is full with examples of healing from God, for everyone who believes, from all sorts of diseases. Being sick does not bring glory to God, but being healed by God, does! Let us start with our salvation first! Did you know, that the original Greek word for 'save' also means 'heal'? In other words, when Jesus died on the cross for us, he provided not only salvation for us and forgiveness of sins, but also a healing for us. God does not care what it is called, if it is called Covid 19, Covid 20 or 2000! God who created the heaven and earth is not only willing to heal from Covid 19, but is also able to do so! The question if God wants to heal or not, simply evaporates, when we read the Bible and especially the New Testament and all the healing which Jesus performed all the time. How can we wonder if God wants to heal us, when Jesus was healing all the time, wherever he went. All the four Gospels are full with healing examples from Jesus. The Bible says that Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever! So God does not change and he does not change his mind about healing neither. When we read the 3 John verse 2, we can very clearly see, that John prayed for a brother called Gaius. It says that Gaius was prospering spiritually in his soul. What that does mean? Well, it means that he was doing what God requires of him, and was living a devoted Christian life, and that is what made him prosper spiritually. But John wanted Gaius to know, that God wanted Gaius to prosper physically, in his body too. John actually prayed for Gaius to be healthy in his body. That is healing, that is the will of God for us his children, to be healed and healthy! Perhaps Gaius was thinking that all that God has for him, is to be spiritually blessed, but not materially. John wanted Gaius to know, that God cares that we are healed and prosper materially as well as spiritually. God does not want us to be well spiritually and suffer materially, either by sickness or lack of what we need. Why should God want us to prosper only spiritually? That is why John had to pray for the physical health of Gaius, that God will keep Gaius in a good health, not only in his soul or spirit, but in his body too! It is 100 % for God to want to heal us! Otherwise, why would John pray that Gaius be healthy if it was not God's will for us to be healed? How many earthly father are there, who want their children sick? A normal father wants his children to be healthy! That is much more with us Christians, who are his children. We Christians are called blessed by God. How can you be blessed and sick at the same time? Part of the expressing the Kingdom of God in our life, is about healing from God. When Jesus was manifesting the Kingdom of God on earth, one part of that was healing. Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is in us. So, if it is in us, then we can also express that Kingdom of God in us by praying for healing either for us or others. God heals today, just as was healing thousands of years ago, because he does not change his mind, and he remains the same forever. |
