| Heal the Sick |
|
Matthew 10:1 & 8, Luke 9:1-2
... He… called … 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. *Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. *Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

As a disciple of Jesus Christ, He has anointed you with power to heal 'all' manners of sicknesses and diseases. It is the same way He commanded you and I to preach the gospel that He has commanded us to heal the sick. Sickness is not from God but from the devil. Healing is of God. That is why Jesus manifested the work of God by healing the sick and everyone that was oppressed by the devil, John 9:1-7. If healing were not of God, then Jesus would have been working against God by healing the sick. You can heal the sick because God has given you the power and, as a matter of fact, commands us to do so. As you step out in faith with this realization and encourage the sick with the revelation that the same price that Jesus paid for sin is the same price He paid for sickness, God will manifest His healing power through you.In James 5:15, the Bible says, and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. In Acts 14:8-10, Apostle Paul did not have to pray for the lame man to be healed. By faith, he commanded him to stand up and the man leaped and walked. Paul spoke in the name (authority) of Jesus. He spoke as if it were Jesus speaking. In John 14:12, Jesus declared that those who believe in Him will do the works that He did and even greater works, because He was going to the Father. This is why even Peter's shadow healed the sick (Acts 5:14-16) and materials that touched Apostle Paul's body healed the sick, Acts 19:11-12. That same power is at work within you.
PRAYER FOCUS: Thank God for anointing you with His power to heal all manners of sicknesses and diseases. Declare in faith that today, you will heal the sick. Declare healing over everyone you know that is sick.
