God’s perfect will is that you never get sick another day in your life and that you always walk in the blessings promised in His word. Jesus died on the cross so that we would no longer have to suffer from sickness and disease…but faith is the key to your healing.
He is despised and rejected of men. A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, and we hid our faces from him. He was despised and we esteemed him not. Surely he has born our griefs and carried our sorrows. Yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon him and with his stripes we are healed.
(Isa. 53:3)
What Jesus did on the cross insures our ability to walk in divine health, but faith has a special connection to your healing. In Mark chapter 5, there is a story of a woman who was suffering from an issue of blood.
This woman pressed through the crowd who was following Jesus, and said in verse 28, “If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be made whole.” She touched his garment, and when Jesus noticed He said in verse 34, “Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.”
This woman did one very important thing to receive her healing: she had faith and demonstrated it by her words. Hebrews 11:3 says, “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed
by the word of God….”
Our world is also framed by our words. When this woman believed in faith for her healing, she was not only healed, but was also made whole.” She got back everything she lost. In other words, she said with her mouth that she would be healed, framing her world by the things she said.
Whatever your sickness is, know that Jesus is Lord over it. You must declare and conclude in your heart that by the stripes of Jesus Christ you are healed.
