Healing!!!

Bible reading: Matthew 8:1-end

Watch word: Jesus is always ready to render help are you willing to receive.


The first step in receiving Healing is to believe that Jesus is always ready to heal Matthew 8:3,7.

This principle is also true for receiving gifts or answers to prayer. God himself said in Matthew 7:11 I am always ready to give gifts to those who are ready to receive (Paraphrased). He is not Just giving it he has already given us all that we would need, all we need do is accept and claim it. In receiving from God we need to take a position so we will receive in abundance. God is faithful, merciful and gracious. To understand or relate with God we must come to him on his own (God's) terms

The Same Principle
The same principle of faith for salvation works for healing.
We received salvation By faith even though we didn't see we believed, likewise the baptism of the spirit was by Faith.


Without Faith it is impossible to please God, Faith is the path conceived by God for the christian to flourish and succeed in every endeavor, Faith is the No. 2 virtue of the spirit after love, Faith actually makes us to function, Faith is the power to function. The challenge of most is exercising faith in it's degrees, the faith is tested by time. But there is good news, we can build faith.
How do we build faith?
Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God Rom 10:17 there is no crime in being weak in faith. At a point all our faiths will be tested and we might return weak, but there is good news faith can be stirred, built and established, this happens by fellowship with God on the particular issue.
 
Another Principle
Say It, It is with the mouth that confession is made unto salvation. When we have prayed and sure that faith has been stirred, God would have us say it. When you pray, believe that you have received what you have said and then you will have it Mark 11:24 Sometimes it is as we say it that the healing comes. Then God sees that we have come to believe the end of our infirmity that we have obtained healing already. The power of God (Holy Spirit) swings to action to bring what we have said to pass.

A New order
The surest way to receive healing is under the barn! We christians are the luckiest because God made special provision for our healing, Those of us who have a relationship with Jesus can be assured of healing all the time. We our guaranteed healing each time we pray though things could delay with patience we will definitely see results. It is those who are outside the covenant I fear for.

Two ways!
There are two basic ways healing is administered but there is only one way it is received and that is by Faith.
Healing is either administered By faith or By the Anointing.


What you need know to receive Healing!

We are going to Highlight Matt 8: to extract how Jesus administered healing

1.) Jesus is always ready and willing to heal Prove Matthew 8:2-3 the leper said to Jesus if thou wilt Jesus said I will be clean.

2.)Then you need to activate faith, it is always advisable if you are weak in faith to build faith and then when power intersects your faith healing occurs.
An example is d centurion in Matthew 8:5-13 who told Jesus I'm a man under authority and I also know you control all the elements of the world speak the word my servant will be healed, Moreover a gentile like me is not worthy to receive. It would be inappropriate for your holiness to be seen with me.

 
The Authority of God.

Like we just highlighted the centurion acknowledged and believed in the authority of God. Greater is he that is in me. If God be for us who can be against us, nobody...


Love(word of God)

How many master's would go outta their way to get the servants healed. It was the persistence of this master that God the healing of this servant. All he did was to act on the word, he believed on the word that Jesus spoke he had confidence in Jesus and the words of his mouth. I'm sure he must have being told the master might not come into your house, he prepared himself beforehand to only act upon the word.
