“He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions” (Ps. 107:20).
How did God send His Word to heal us? He gave us sixty-six books of His words – the Bible. As we hear the Word, it starts working inside us to make us completely healed and whole.
When you go all through the Gospels, in most cases you’ll find that hearing came before healing. And if it worked that way under Jesus’ ministry, it still works that way today.
When you need healing, the best thing you can do is to hear and hear and hear and hear. Keep that Word going into your ears every way possible. Keep hearing what God says about your healing.
Many people want to go to one particular meeting and miraculously receive their healing. They aren’t interested in hearing. Sometimes God in His mercy does manifest Himself, and people receive their healing. But most of the time, they have to take time to hear before they are healed.
You see, walking by faith doesn’t come from leaving your Bible on the shelf until it’s time to dust it off and carry it to church. Your faith grows as you get into God’s Word. It builds in your spirit as you hear it from the preacher, cassette tapes and out of your own mouth.
He sent His Word, and it heals you. When does it heal you? When you take the time to hear it.
God sent His Word to heal me. His Word is life to me and
medicine to all my flesh. I hear His Word and obey it,
and I am delivered from sickness and disease.
