• “The Lord will keep you free from every disease” (Deuteronomy 7:15, "New International Version").
• “With long life I will satisfy [you] and show [you] my salvation” (Psalm 91:16).
• “[God] sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions” (Psalm 107:20).
• “[God] brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes” (Psalm 105:37).
You can find even more verses like that in the New Testament. In the Gospels, for instance, you can read about healing in the ministry of Jesus, who always did God’s perfect will and never refused to heal anyone. Instead…
• “Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people” (Matthew 4:23).
• “Great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all” (Matthew 12:15).
• “Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people” (Matthew 9:35).
• “They brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses” (Matthew 8:16-17).
Notice, the last verse in that list ties the Old Testament and the New together. It quotes Isaiah 53 that prophesies about the Messiah bringing healing to His people and declares that Jesus is the fulfillment of that prophecy. In other words, it tells us that healing is no longer a future-tense promise, it’s a past-tense fact. As 1 Peter 2:24 says, by Jesus’ stripes “ye were healed.”
When Ken and I first got a revelation of that, it changed our lives! We realized that if Jesus had already borne our sicknesses and diseases, we were no longer the sick trying to talk God into healing us; we were the healed and the devil was trying to steal our health!
If you’re a born-again child of God, the same is true for you. Healing hasn’t just been promised to you, it’s already been provided for you. Through what Jesus did on the cross, the price for it has been paid. Healing belongs to you right now, so go ahead and start receiving it.
Take the Proverbs 4 prescription. Get God’s medicine on the inside of you in such abundance, it overflows from your mouth. Develop the faith to connect every day with God’s healing power…and live healed! V
