Twelve Important Steps To Keep You On Track For Your Healing
1. It is of utmost importance that you make God’s Word the final authority in your life. You
must become convinced in your heart, knowing clearly from the Scriptures that healing is a purchased possession for you. Make up your mind that you will not settle for anything less. 1 Corinthians 2:12, Romans 4:20-22, Galatians 3:13
2. Receive your healing by faith in prayer before the Lord. Settle it before the Lord and write
down the date. This is very important. You need to know for certain when you received your healing. By doing so, it will aid in abolishing doubt and unbelief. If the devil tells you that you are not going to get healed, just tell him he is too late, you’ve already received it by faith and then quote the date to him and then command him to leave! I suggest taking communion when you get ready to receive your healing, as the juice and the bread are symbolic elements of the covenant, His body broken and bruised for our healing and the blood shed for the forgiveness of our sin. You will note in 1 Corinthians 10:16 that Paul refers to communion as the cup of blessing! If you do a word search on the word “blessing” you will find that it means, empowered to succeed!
3. Read through all of the Healing Scriptures select scriptures that you feel the Holy Spirit
has specifically pointed out for you to stand on and claim as your inheritance - commit some to memory as they are your ammunition scriptures. Hebrews 4:12, Ephesians 6:17, Hebrews 11:1
4. Daily, read out loud the healing scriptures, inserting your name in them where applicable, making them personal to you. Meditate, ponder, and chew on the truth of these Scriptures. Remember the Word of God is His personal love letter to you. Do this three times a day until your faith is built up for healing, then once a day to maintain your faith. Romans 10:17 says that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Build your faith and your doubts will starve to death!
5. Review and claim your Scriptures every time doubt comes to your mind and speak out
faith declarations of what the Word says about you and your healing! Do the reverse of Mark 4:15 and steal the devils word immediately and replace it with the Word of God, your precious promises - 2 Peter 1:1-4. Remember the devil is after your faith and he wants you to believe in his ability to defeat the Word of God in your life. Don’t fall for that lie!
6. Speak blessings over your body, and speak in line with the Word of God regarding your
situation - don’t focus on and speak the problem - focus on and speak the answer. Your words are powerful - see Mark 11:23-24. We do not deny that sickness or disease is present, however
Page 2
we deny it the right to stay! “Sickness/disease, you have no right to stay in my body, 1 Peter 2:24 tells me that by the stripes laid upon Jesus, I was (past tense) healed. I agree with the Word and call my body healed in Jesus Name. I command you to go, you have no place here.”
7. Make praise and worship an everyday part of your life - rejoicing at the promises and for
your life in Christ. He truly deserves our adoration, for He is our everything, and He has given us the victory! 1 Corinthians 15:57, 1 John 5:4. Praise and worship will help you to be victory minded “The Lord is enthroned amongst the praises of His people” - Psalm 22:3
8. Learn to use the authority that has been given to you by the Lord, to not only come against the sickness/disease, but to also run off any doubt and oppression that may be harassing you. Lay your hands on yourself and command the sickness to leave, command your body to line up with the Word of God. Tell doubt and unbelief and mental questioning to go in the Name of Jesus! You are a believer and not a doubter!!! Luke 10:19, Isaiah 54:17, Mark 11:23
9. This is very important!!! Take time each day to get quiet and listen to the Lord - let Him minister to you and encourage you - He is the Comforter! A good time to do this is right after you’ve spent a little time in personal praise and worship - Psalms 100:4. We need to learn to recognize His voice. He will also illuminate the Scriptures to you and get you back on track if you need it. It is also a wonderful place to receive direction from Him. You need to develop your relationship with Him in this vital way. Christianity is not mere religion, but the right to personal, intimate fellowship with Him. John 16:13, Matthew 4:4
10. Check yourself out before the Lord for any unforgiveness or any “open doors” you may have to the enemy - repent and make changes as quickly as possible. Don’t forget about your provision in 1 John 1:9: “that if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Remember sin will block the blessings of God. So get rid of all of the blessing blockers!
11. Continue in your normal daily devotions and Bible reading, learning, growing and
maturing irrespective of your situation. Proverbs 4:20-22, Joshua 1:8. Begin to Journal the little gems of truth the Lord reveals to you in your daily devotions. They will serve as an anchor to your soul as you refer back to them when the going gets tough.
12. Stand, and keep on standing! Ephesians 6:10-18. Don’t waiver because as it says in
James 1:6-7, that person will not receive from God. Never let go of the promise. Know the difference between a miracle and a healing. Miracles are instant, and healings are progressive. Important - read Mark 4:26-29, this describes the law of progression that is the norm for the Kingdom of God.

Be careful not to put your healing in first place, we do not want it to become an idol. Keep the Lord and your relationship with Him and your love for Him in first place. “And let us not grow weary while doing good (doing the Word), for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” Galatians 6:9
The Word of God is the Life of God. Believe it, Receive it and Act upon it!!!
Now Fasten Your Seatbelt And Expect A Move Of God Suddenly! Acts 5:16 “Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed. NOTE - Even
after Jesus had been crucified and rose again, and we ascended into heaven, we see the very same work that Jesus performed still taking place through the hands of His disciples, and with the very same intensity - all being healed. And why not? Hebrews 13:8 tells us that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever!
Hebrews 7:25 Because Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant (verse 22),
“Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.” Take a look at this scripture in the Amplified Version: “Therefore He is able also to save to the uttermost (completely, perfectly, finally, and for all time and eternity) those who come to God through Him, since He is always living to make petition to God and intercede with Him and intervene for them.” NOTE - It is important to remember that the word
“save” is the Greek work sozo which literally means to heal, preserve, save, do well, be (make) whole. It means deliverance in the present as well as in the future or in eternity, physical as well as spiritual. Jesus used this word to denote healing of the body as well as forgiveness of sins. Always translate this word as “save - heal” when you come across it in the Word. Now you know where we came up with the domain name for our website www.savedhealed.com
Acts 13:38-39 “Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man [Jesus] is
preached to you the forgiveness of sins; and by Him everyone who believes is justified [declared righteous] from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.” NOTE - I
love this. From now on you need to train yourself to translate the word “justified” as declared righteous. That is the literal Greek translation. This will really help you when you read the book of Romans. You can remember it by: just-if-i’d never sinned. That is righteousness - to be in right standing with God... 2 Corinthians 5:21 tells us plainly that as born-again believer’s we have become the righteousness of God in Christ. Because of the forgiveness of sins, through His shed blood, we are redeemed and declared righteous from ALL THINGS which we could not be declared righteous, apart from His redemptive work. This is our position in Christ and it’s more than just spiritual, the effects of it pertain to the soul, the body and our life here on this earth.

Romans 8:11 “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who
raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal (Natural, Earthly) bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.” NOTE - Take a close look at this Scripture, this is talking about your body that
you have now, not the one you’re going to receive one day in heaven! Allow the Lord to impart His life into you by placing faith in His Word. Begin to praise Him for this promise.
2 Corinthians 4:10-11 “Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus
(which was for our victory), that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.” - Bodily Health!!!
Matthew 6:9-10 “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on Earth as it is in heaven.” NOTE - Jesus always prays the will of God, and He prays that
the will of God be done here on the earth just as it is in heaven. People in heaven are not sick, so we can clearly see it is God’s will that we also be free from sickness and disease.
Deuteronomy 11:21 (If a believer honors God and lives according to the Word, He says...) “That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.” NOTE - God’s plan is
that His children begin to experience the inheritance of the heavenly life while here on the earth. We’re already His children, and we have been given special rights. Learning to walk in the Word of God brings the benefits of the Word of God into a living, functioning reality.
Deuteronomy 7:15 “And the LORD will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict
you with none of the terrible diseases of Egypt which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you.” NOTE - If this was a promise to God’s covenant people under the Old Covenant, how much more does this benefit of health pertain to us today; as we are under the New Covenant which is based upon the precious Blood of Jesus Christ!
Romans 8:32 “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?” NOTE - Surely this includes healing!!!
Mark 16:17-18 “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name . . . they shall
lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” NOTE - Find someone who believes God’s Word regarding healing and have them lay hands on you and pray for you in faith believing. James 5:16 says “that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.”
Isaiah 40:31 “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint.” NOTE -
The word “wait” in this verse implies a positive action of hope, based on knowing that the Word of God is a true fact and that it will soon come to pass - waiting with earnest expectation!
Psalm 34:19 “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.”
Page 5
Jeremiah 30:17 “For I will restore health unto you, and I will heal you of your wounds, saith the Lord.”
Isaiah 53:4-5 “Surely He hath borne our griefs (Lit. sicknesses) and carried our sorrows (Lit.
pains) 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 by His stripes we are healed.” NOTE - The last part of this verse,” by His stripes we are healed,” is not talking about spiritual healing, as some have taught, but definite physical healing. God does not “heal” a human spirit, he recreates it. He does however, heal our bodies and minds. This clearly shows that your healing was paid for at the cross!
Jeremiah 33:6 “Behold, I will bring you health and cure, and I will cure you, and will reveal unto you the abundance of peace and truth.”
Matthew 18:19 “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on Earth concerning anything
that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.” NOTE - The prayer of agreement is powerful - have someone agree with you for your healing!
Mark 11:24 “Therefore I say to you whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.” Surely this includes healing!
Isaiah 58:8 “Thy light shall break forth as the morning, and thy health shall spring forth
speedily; and thy righteousness shall go before thee: the glory of the Lord shall be thy rear guard.”
Psalm 41:3 (Amplified Version) “The Lord will sustain, refresh, and strengthen him on his bed of languishing; all his bed You [O Lord] will turn, change, and transform in his illness.” NOTE - I love how the Amplified Bible brings out the fullness of meaning in the original language. The phrase “all his bed” in the Hebrew has the meaning of; all that he is afflicted with, or all of his condition that he is lying with” It is always His will to turn, change and transform our mourning into dancing - Psalm 30:11
1Thessalonians 5:23 “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God
your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless [sound, complete and intact] unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” NOTE - It is very clear in this passage that wholeness, wellness, and health are for the complete make-up of man, spiritual, mental, and physical.
1 Peter 2:24 “Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness-- by whose stripes you were healed.” NOTE - Past tense “You were healed”. Jesus paid it all for your total deliverance - spirit, soul and body!
Psalm 103:2-3 “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who heals all thy diseases” NOTE - Notice it doesn’t say some, it says all! It also states
that healing is one of the benefits that belong to the believer along with the benefit of having our sin forgiven. See our article Two Gifts of Grace
Page 6
3 John 2 “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.”
Jeremiah 17:14 “Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” NOTE - Once a person finally sees that healing is a finished work along with salvation, paid for at the same time with the same healing Blood, then you can get excited about this verse saying; “you did it Lord for me, then according to this verse I will agree and say I will have healing just as I have salvation, it’s mine NOW!”
James 5:14-15 “Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them
pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he has committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.”
Use Your Authority and Resist Fear! Matthew 18:18 “Verily I say unto you, whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in
heaven: and whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” NOTE - The word “bind” means to forbid, the word “loose” means to let go or to allow to go free. Do not allow sickness, pain or disease run free in your body, bind it or forbid it to stay there any longer because of your rights as a believer.. Put your foot down and command it to leave in the Name of Jesus!!!
John 10:10 “The thief (satan) does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I (Jesus) have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” NOTE - Here we
see the desired will of the Lord for every believer, that we experience abundant life. According to this verse He came for this very purpose. We also see clearly that it is not God who afflicts us. The word here for life is the Greek word “Zoë.” One highly respected commentator describes the true meaning of the word in this verse as: “life being the highest and best of which Christ is.” In light of that meaning, you can easily see the wonderful gift of life the Lord wants for each of us. Sickness and disease are truly not in His plan for us, simply because He has none to give.
Luke 10:19 “Behold, I give unto you power (authority) to tread on serpents and scorpions,
and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” NOTE - This is an exciting verse as Jesus said He has given us authoritive power over ALL, not some of the enemy! Command Satan to take his hands off of you. Command sickness and disease to leave you now in the Name of Jesus.
Isaiah 41:10 “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises
against you in judgment YOU shall condemn. This is the heritage (birthright) of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me,” says the LORD.” NOTE - Sickness is judging you falsely,
it is your birthright to live in health. You condemn it, with the Word of God, and command it to leave your body.
Page 7
You Are An Overcomer Through Jesus Christ! 1 John 4:4 “. . . . Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” 1 John 5:4 “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that
overcometh the world, even our faith.” NOTE - In John 17:14 Jesus states that we as believer’s are not of the world. Sickness, disease and failure belong to the world. As a believer, we are given the right to overcome that which comes against us by holding fast to the Word of God. While we do not deny that the problem or circumstance exists, we do however deny it the right to stay through our faith in God and His Word!!! Know this: Faith in God is victory all of the time!!!
Romans 8:31 “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against
us” NOTE - You are a winner, you are victorious through the Lord Jesus Christ. Begin to see yourself the way God sees you.
1 John 4:17 “ Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.” NOTE - Not only can we have boldness in the
Day of Judgment, but we can have boldness now in this life in the face of adversity, knowing who we are in Christ, knowing what belongs to us in Him and tenaciously holding onto it, refusing what the enemy wants us to have. As this verse says so clearly, as He is, so are we in this world. Think about that for a moment, how is He now? He is not sick, He is not diseased - it can’t touch Him, and we are His body - the body of Christ. Insist on having the blessing of the Lord manifested in you - praise Him for it now, worship Him!!!
1 Corinthians 5:15-17 “Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I
then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For “the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.” But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.” NOTE - I can’t say it any clearer than this verse - we are one with Jesus Christ now. Sickness has no right to Him, so it has no legal right to us. It is illegal, off limits; it has no right to stay. Take a firm stand and run off the attack and lie of the enemy. You belong to Him; you are washed in His precious Blood, the covenant Blood. Command it to leave and insist on your rights now, and don’t quit until it changes and becomes just as the Word says it should be!!!
2 Peter 1:3-4 “As His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” NOTE - Notice the past tense use of “has” given us all things that pertain to life!!! The blessing of health was purchased for us at the cross, it belongs to you now. Notice the importance of the Word of God; your healing must be rooted steadfastly on the Word, not on what you see or how you feel. And did you also take note that we are partakers of His divine nature! I guarantee you that His nature is total health and well being, expect it
1 Corinthians 1:9 “God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” NOTE - The word “fellowship” is a strong covenant word in the original Greek
text. It means: intimacy, partnership and participation, and also communion. In other words, because we are born-again, we have been given the right to share intimately, in partnership and participation in His life. Know
Page 8 that He is life, the purest form of life, and He’s called us to share intimately in it with Him. It’s a place where sickness and disease have no right. This is your birthright, count on it and expect it. And I love how this verse starts out - God is faithful. He’s faithful to His Covenant Word, and to His covenant people, He’s faithful to YOU!
Romans 5:17 “For if by the one man’s offense [Adam] death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.” NOTE - I love this verse! Did you notice, it did not say you might or you
possibly could, it says you will reign in life (this life in the here and now). Are you reigning in life or are you being rained on? If you are not experiencing victory, know that it is a breech of the Word of God for it to remain and become the norm. Get mad, with a righteous indignation, and command the circumstances to leave and take hold of the victory that is yours through the Word. For this is the will of God!
Genesis 1:28 “And God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and
replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.” NOTE - The red blood cells of your
body already obey this verse, as they are being multiplied and replenished every 80 - 120 days! Look at the rest of what God said to mankind - subdue and have dominion... over every living thing! Wow! That includes cancer, bacteria, parasites, viruses and all microorganisms that cause sickness and disease. He gave the blessing, He gave the command, He gave you the right - now do it. Put your foot down on sickness and disease and command it to go - it has no right to stay, You are a blood bought child of God!!! Don’t put up with it another minute, subdue and take dominion!
Colossians 1:13 “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love” NOTE - To be conveyed is to be transferred, removed out of one and
placed into another. The power of darkness which includes the curse, no longer has a hold on us as we are now members of a different kingdom - the kingdom of God. There is no sickness and no disease in the kingdom of God.
Make Jesus The Lord Of Your Life; Reverence Him By Closing All Doors To The Enemy, Giving Him First Place! Proverbs 3:7-8 “Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and depart from evil. It
will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones.” NOTE - The term “fear the Lord” means to reverence and worship the Lord in all things.
Exodus 15:26 “If thou will diligently harken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in His sight, and wilt give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put (permit) none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.”
Exodus 23:25 “So you shall serve (worship) the Lord your God and He will bless your bread
and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you.” NOTE - True worship from the
heart is a key to walking in divine health. Humbleness of heart. Close every door to the devil that you are aware of. Take time each day to worship and love on God from your heart.
Page 9
Psalm 91:9-10 “Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the Most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.”
Malachi 4:2-3 “But unto you that fear (reverence, worship) My name shall the Sun of
Righteousness arise with healing in His wings; and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. You shall trample the wicked for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day that I do this says the Lord of hosts” NOTE - I love this verse! This verse is a great promise and even tells us when it became a reality for us. “On the day that I do this” was at Calvary. Now the enemy is “ashes” under our feet and healing and protection belong to us. See Luke 10:19 also.
Know That When You Ask The Lord For Healing, It Is Already His Will And He Hears You And He Agrees. Know He Has Already Settled It In The Atonement Of The Blood Of Jesus Christ - He Says “Yes”! Psalm 30:2 “O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.” Psalm 107:19-20 “Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses. He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
Matthew 7:7-8 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will
be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” NOTE - The word “ask” in the Greek has the meaning of insistent asking with a knowing of what belongs to the one making the request. Presenting a solid requisition to God, knowing He longs to distribute what He has to the one in need. Look at James 1:5-8 we must ask in faith, and faith always knows, it never wishes!
I John 5:14-15 “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything
according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.” NOTE - The Word of God is the will of God. If you see it in the Word of God then you can be assured that it is the will of God. The Lord is not trying to keep healing from you; He is trying to get it to you - Just Believe!
2 Corinthians 1:20 “For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to
the glory of God through us.” NOTE - Notice that according to God all of His promises towards us are
“YES” and amen (so be it!) or it is settled! There aren’t any “no’s” from the Lord toward us when it comes to performing His Word in our behalf. - Now that’s good news!
Psalm 35:27 “Let them shout for joy and be glad, who favor my righteous cause; and let them say continually, “Let the LORD be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.”
NOTE - At first glance you may think this scripture refers only to prosperity or wealth. The word in the Hebrew for prosperity here is “shalom” and we know it as the word for peace. However, in the Hebrew this word literally means health, prosperity and peace - wholeness, welfare. So you can clearly see the mind of God who takes pleasure in the health, wholeness, prosperity and peace of us His children! He’s excited for us to have it. Once you get a hold of this, praise and adoration will naturally flow forth in pure appreciation for who He is to
Page 10 us and all that He has already done for us. Fear and doubt will no longer have a place in your thinking. What an awesome God He is!!!
The Will Of God Is His Blessing Of Goodness That Is For You Now! Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of
peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope (an expected end).” NOTE - The word for peace
here in the Hebrew is the word shalom and implies the meaning of health and prosperity, which is obviously His will as it is the end or goal that the Lord is expecting for us. Begin to expect it also - yes, that’s right - get your hopes way up!
Luke 12:32 “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the
kingdom.” NOTE - Along with the kingdom, come all of the kingdom blessings and benefits! Realize it gives God pleasure to give to you, He is a giver - He is love and love gives. So cast of fear, and put a smile on your face- you are rich in Him. Just receive it.
Psalm 121:7-8 “The Lord shall preserve (keep) you from all evil; He shall preserve your
soul (life). The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth and even forevermore.” NOTE - Notice He said He would keep or preserve us from all evil. This surely includes sickness and disease. The word for preserve means to guard, keep, to hedge about, to protect, and to attend to. Praise the Lord! His promise is to do this now and forevermore. Begin to thank Him and praise Him for it.
Hebrews 13:20-21 (Amplified Version) “Now may the God of peace [Who is the Author and
the Giver of peace], Who brought again from among the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, by the blood [that sealed, ratified] the everlasting agreement (covenant, testament), strengthen (complete, perfect) and make you what you ought to be and equip you with everything good that you may carry out His will; [while He Himself] works in you and accomplishes that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ (the Messiah); to Whom be the glory forever and ever (to the ages of the ages). Amen (so be it). NOTE - I love how the Amplified Version brings
out the truth and clarity intended through the original Greek language. The author of Hebrews is praying a blessing in accordance with the will of God for completeness and wholeness which is intended through the Blood Covenant. May you be strengthened, be made complete and be perfected, be made what you ought to be (because of the shed Blood) and equipped with everything good so you can accomplish His will! Wow! This absolutely includes healing, health and wholeness. Our God has a purpose and a plan for you and He wants you to accomplish it now in Jesus Name! That is His will, rise up and believe it, receive it and act upon it!
The Word Of God Brings Healing! Psalm 119:50 “This is my comfort in my affliction, for your Word has given my life.” Romans 10:17 “So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.” NOTE -
Faith for healing comes by hearing God’s Word concerning healing. So just as you may be taking medicine two or three times a day, do the same thing with the promises in the Word of God regarding healing, and allow your faith to be built up! You’ll be amazed at the change that will take place.
Page 11
Proverbs 4:20-22 “My Son, attend to My words; incline thine ear unto My sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health (Lit. medicine) to all their flesh.” NOTE - Here it is as plain as it can be: the taking
of God’s Word is life and medicine to your flesh. So just don’t take your prescribed natural medicine alone, add the Word of God along with it. Prescribed medicine can heal and help some things, but God’s medicine can heal all.
John 8:32 “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” NOTE - The Word
of God is truth see John 17:17. Once you know the truth concerning healing in God’s redemptive plan, then you can begin to exercise faith and expect the promises of God to manifest in you - and they will - REJOICE!!!
Jeremiah 23:29 “Is not My word like a fire? says the LORD, And like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?” NOTE - Get this fact down deep into your heart. The Word of God IS an all consuming
fire that will melt away and burn off that which is not of God, and a powerful crushing force to break apart even the toughest and most stubborn circumstances. Continue taking the hammer of God’s Word and continue to hit the situations in your life that are not of God, until they give way and become as the Word says they should be. Persistence breaks down resistance! See article: Don’t Stop Swinging That Hammer
2 Timothy 3:16-17 “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” NOTE - Does your body and or mind need
correction? God’s Word is just the medicine. According to this verse we see that it is His will that you may be complete and thoroughly equipped for every good work. If you are sick you cannot do the work of the ministryknow that God wants you to be able bodied, a living example in every area of His grace and mercy and power.
John 6:63 “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.” NOTE - God’s Word is healing, it will bring health to your flesh. See Proverbs
4:22. That’s why it is important to continue to go over the healing scriptures daily, therefore building your faith in the area of healing, imparting the very life of God into your cells. Fill up on God’s Word!
John 15:7 “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.”
Isaiah 55:11 “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” NOTE - God’s Word on healing will accomplish healing in you.
Jeremiah 1:12 “. . . . I am alert and active watching over My Word to perform it.” Amplified
NOTE - God is looking, searching eagerly for someone to take Him at His Word so that He can perform it on their behalf.
Joshua 21:45 “Not a word failed of any good thing which the LORD had spoken to the house
of Israel. All came to pass.” NOTE - How much more sure is this promise to us since our covenant with God is based upon the shed Blood of Jesus Christ!

Healing Is A Good Gift From God! James 1:17 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” NOTE - Healing is a
wonderful gift from God, and here again is another proof that He does not change. What He did yesterday He will do again today - Praise the Lord, He is still the Healer!!!
1 Corinthians 3:21-22 “Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours:
whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come--all are yours.” NOTE - This says it so clear; the Lord is holding nothing back from us. Surely healing is included in the claim of “all things” and certainly is included in the word “life.” Begin to praise the Lord for your healing which is a gift to you from the Lord, and the manifestation that will come as you receive the promise by faith.
Romans 11:29 “For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.” NOTE - He’s the giver of gifts and He doesn’t take them back, they cannot be canceled out!
Philippians 2:13 “For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for his good pleasure.”
Matthew 11:28 (Amplified Version) “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and
overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.]” NOTE - The word ‘rest’ here literally means to cease from toil or labor in order to recover and collect his strength, and implies a feeling of wholeness and well being. Place your focus onto Jesus and all that He has purchased for you. Take the focus off of the circumstances, and begin praising Him for all that He has done for you. You are highly favored by God - He’s given it all to you. Spend time each day just loving on God. Come to Him through intimate worship, and experience this rest.
Deuteronomy 29:29 “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.
NOTE - This Scripture makes it so clear that healing and health belong to you and your posterity - family line. Healing has been revealed to us through the Word of God - declared to us through the shed covenant Blood of Jesus Christ on the cross. Every Scripture on this page is declaring your revealed covenant right. Dig in and take hold of it by faith and refuse to let go of your birthright!!!
We Have Been Redeemed Out From Under The Bondage Of Sickness & Disease! Galatians 3:13-14 “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse
for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessings of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ.” NOTE - The curse of the law includes sickness and
disease and is found in Deuteronomy 28:15-68. The first 14 verses of the chapter pertain to the blessing, and the rest of the chapter describes the curse! By the shed Blood of Jesus Christ we were purchased out of or out from under the curse!!! Especially look at verse 61; it states all sickness and all disease in the world, even those not written in the Book, so therefore we are redeemed from it all!!!
Page 13
Proverbs 26:2 “Like a flitting sparrow, like a flying swallow, so a curse without cause shall
not alight.” NOTE - As we continue in Christ, the curse has no right to take root in our lives. Take a firm stand against it, and command its effects to leave in the Name of Jesus! You are a child of the King.
Romans 8:2 “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.” And the effects of death and the curse!
Colossians 1:13 “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the
kingdom of the Son of His love” NOTE - Remember there is no sickness or disease in the kingdom of God! Here again is another wonderful scripture proving your birthright of healing.
1 John 3:8b “For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” Take a look at this same verse in the Amplified version - “The reason the Son of God was made manifest (visible) was to undo (destroy, loosen, and dissolve) the works the devil [has done].” NOTE -There is no doubt that sickness and disease are works of the devil, introduced to mankind
through the fall as part of the curse. This Scripture is very clear that Jesus came to undo the works of the devil. Be assured that He accomplished His task- further proof that sickness and disease have no legal right to remain in your body as a child of God! Command it to go in Jesus Name!
2 Corinthians 3:17 “Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there
is liberty.” NOTE - If you are born-again, if you’ve asked Jesus to come into your heart, then you are saved,
you are a child of God and the Spirit of God dwells within your heart - make no mistake about it!!! Therefore, according to this Scripture freedom and liberty from bondage in any form belong to you, and you should expect it. It’s your covenant right. Receive this as the truth that it is, personally for you right now!!! Lift your hands to the Lord and begin to praise Him and worship Him for His goodness to you.
John 8:36 “Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.” NOTE - The Greek
thought here is not just free, but really and unquestionably free. The Amplified version reads: “So if the Son liberates you [makes you free men], then you are really and unquestionably free.” Let this truth of victory soak down deep into your heart and dispel all thoughts of doubt and fear. Praise God, sickness and disease have no right to be in us, they cannot stay, and they have to go! Shout it out - “I’m a free man!!!”
Snap Out Of That Depression, Your Attitude Determines Your Altitude! Hebrews 12:12-13
“Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; and make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.” NOTE - Real faith rejoices at the promises of God as if it were experiencing them already. Get the focus off of your problem and on to the answer which are the promises of God - His Word. REJOICE! Get happy, it’s all yours!
Psalm 42:11 “Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me?
Hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.”

We Can Have Confidence In Him, For God Cannot Lie! Hebrews 10:23 “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised)” NOTE - Remember Hebrews 6:18 says that it is impossible for God to lie!
I John 5:14-15 “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything
according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.” NOTE - It’s easy to know the will of God. The
Word of God is the will of God! Jeremiah 1:12 says that He watches over His Word to perform it. So when you ask and believe the Word of God, you are asking and believing according to His will and you will receive, just as it says!
Hebrews 10:35-36 “Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.
For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise.” NOTE - Remember that the will of God is the Word of God!
Long Life Belongs To You - Don’t Give up!!! Base Your Faith On The Promises Of God. Genesis 6:3 And the LORD said,” My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed
flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.” NOTE - Did you see it! The promise of God is that you live a good long life, even to 120 if you so desire! Speak to that mountain of death and command it to be removed. Begin to grab hold of this promise of long life and lay claim to it with your spoken words... Don’t settle for less than what God has promised, don’t let the devil steal from you - go on and live a long life fulfilling your days, calling and ministry upon this Earth!
Psalm 90:10 “The days of our lives are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are
eighty years, yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.” NOTE
- Many take this verse to be the cap that God has set for mankind’s lifespan upon the earth. However, this psalm was written by Moses and this verse pertains to the disobedient children of Israel that came out of Egypt being led by Moses who, because of their unbelief, were condemned to live out their lives wondering in the desert until each one had died. Only their children, and Joshua and Caleb would enter into the Promised Land. Moses went on to live 120 years and the scripture says that his strength had not departed him and his eyes were not dim. He also was very able to climb the mountain God had commanded him to climb where he died. Joshua and Caleb also lived to be over 100.
Deuteronomy 30:19-20 “I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”
NOTE - Just as it was when this was spoken to the children of Israel, it is true for us today - we need to make up our minds and choose life - it is there for us. When we do, then we must adhere to the prescribed formula for that life: that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice (His Word), and that you may
Page 15 cling to Him. Fall in love with Jesus, fall in love with the Word, health and life will be a natural result!
Job 5:26 “You shall come to the grave at a full age, as a sheaf of grain ripens in its season.” Psalm 91:16 “With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation.” NOTE - Here God is saying live until you’re satisfied!
Psalm 118:17 “I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.” NOTE - Agree with this right now! Declare it with your voice! God has a plan for your life here on the Earth. Don’t let the enemy steal it away. You can do what God says you can do, you can be what God says you can be!
Cast Down Those Thoughts and Imaginations That Don’t Line Up With The Word Of God! 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 “(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds ;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ” NOTE - Keep your focus on the promises of God, you have to make yourself stay focused. Don’t allow your mind to stray - the manifestation of your healing is on its way!
State Your Case To God! Isaiah 43:25-26 “I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; and I
will not remember your sins. Put Me in remembrance; let us contend together; state your case, that you may be acquitted.” NOTE - Your case was settled when Jesus went to the cross in your behalf! If you have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord then “It is finished!!!”
Your Words Are Important! Isaiah 57:19 “I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will heal him.” NOTE - The word “fruit” here means produce. God creates what you produce from your mouth when we believe and speak the Word of God
Mark 11:22-23 “And Jesus answering saith unto them, have faith in God. For verily I say
unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.” NOTE - What kind of mountains or obstacles do you have in your life right now? Obey Jesus and command that mountain of pain, cancer, disease, to go now out of your body in the Name of Jesus. Jesus said you can have what you say. Begin to call your body whole, healed, well - don’t stop, don’t listen to your body, don’t listen to doubt and fear, listen to Jesus, listen to His Word!
Job 22:26-28 “For then you will delight in the Almighty, and lift up your face to God. You will pray to Him, and He will hear you; and you will pay your vows. You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and light will shine on your ways.
Page 16 NOTE - Give voice to the promises in the Word, and lay claim to them as your inheritance. Decree that you are healed! “Lord, you said that by your stripes I am healed, so on the authority of Your Word, I decree that I am healed and that sickness and disease have no hold on me and they must go in the Name of Jesus!”
Remember To Give Testimony Of Your Healing! Revelation 12:11 “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony...” NOTE - When your healing manifests itself and you recover and have the opportunity to testify to the grace of the Lord - Do it!!! The Lord wants you to give glory to Him for what He has done and it will also serve to help build faith in someone else who has a need.
Hold On To Your Healing Nahum 1:7,9b “The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knows those who trust in Him.... He will make an utter end of it. Affliction will not rise up a second time.” NOTE - After you’ve received the manifestation of healing, this becomes your stand of faith! See below for more
HEALING Proverbs 4:20-22 says, My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life to those that find them, and health to all their flesh. (KJV) The Hebrew word for “health” in verse 22 is “medicine.” God’s Word is medicine to all our flesh. Isaac Leaser’s translation of Exodus 15:26 reads, I the Lord am thy physician. The medicine He prescribes is His Word. Many make the mistake of substituting belief in healing for the actual taking of God’s medicine – His Word. They say, “I believe in healing” without actually taking the medicine. What good would it do for you to believe in food if you didn’t eat it? You would starve. What good would it do for you to believe in water if you didn’t actually drink any? You would die of thirst. God’s Word is His medicine. There are several parallels between God’s medicine and natural medicine. First: God’s Word is a healing agent; just as natural medicine is a healing agent or catalyst. In other words, the medicine itself contains the capacity to produce healing. Inherent within God’s Word is the capacity, the energy, the ability, and the nature to effect healing in your body. Psalm 107:20 – He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. 20
… He sent out His word, and it healed, and from their corruptions it freed! (Fenton)
Proverbs 4:22 – For they (His Words) are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. (KJV)
Page 17 Isaiah 55:11 – The Word of God will accomplish what it was sent out to do. The Word itself contains the power to produce what it says. Just as when God said, “Let there be light” and there was light, healing Scriptures contain within them the capacity to produce healing. Hebrews 4:12 – For the word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit … (KJV) 12
God’s Message is full of life and power. (Weymouth)
12
God’s Word is alive with energy. (Jordan)
12
God’s word to us is something alive, full of energy. (Knox)
The key to partaking of the life and healing energy in the Word is feeding on it until it penetrates your spirit where it deposits that life and energy. Second: We might say that medicine is no respecter of persons. It will work for anyone who takes it. It is not a matter of if God is willing or not willing to heal any individual, but whether or not the individual will receive healing by taking the medicine that produces it. Third, and most important: Medicine must be taken according to directions to be effective. Some medicine labels read “Take internally”; others say, “Take externally.” To rub it on your body externally when the directions say to take it internally will not work. To take it after meals when the directions say take it before meals will reduce its effectiveness. To take it once in a while when the directions say three times a day will mean limited results, if any. No matter how good the medicine is, it must be taken according to the directions or it won’t work. So it is with God’s medicine. It must be taken according to directions for it to work. The directions for taking God’s medicine are found in: Proverbs 4:20-21 – Attend to them, incline your ear to them, don’t let them depart from before your eyes, and keep them in the midst of your heart. We might say that attending to them, inclining your ear to them, and keeping them before your eyes causes the Word to get into the midst of your heart. Notice this: It is only as God’s Words get in the midst of your heart and stay there that they produce healing in your body. Head knowledge won’t do. They are going to have to penetrate to your spirit through meditation – attending, hearing, looking, muttering, musing, and pondering – to produce healing in your body. But once they do penetrate, they will surely bring health to all your flesh. … Let them penetrate deep within your heart. (Living Bible) You can see again that God’s way of healing is spiritual. Power is ministered first to your spirit, and then distributed to your body. God’s medicine must be taken internally. Listen, instead of wondering whether you have enough faith to be healed, just take the medicine. This handout contains Healing Scriptures. Feed on them several times a day, repeating them over and over again to yourself. The medicine itself will work if you will get it inside of you. Fourth: Remember that it takes time for medicine to work. Most people give natural medicine a lot of time, patience, and money to work. They take the prescription back for refills and more refills. They are diligent about it. They don’t just take one dose and expect a miracle. Keep taking God’s medicine. Give it time to work. Take your medicine. Say these Scriptures to yourself. Think on what you’re saying in your heart. Use them in praise to the Father. His Word is medicine to all your flesh.
Page 18 Exodus 15:25-26 – And he cried unto the Lord; and the Lord shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them, and said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.

CONFESSION: God is speaking to me now, saying, “I am the Lord that healeth thee.” He is watching over this Word to perform it. He is the Lord that healeth me. He is healing me now. This Word contains the ability to produce what it says. He is the Lord that healeth me. He is healing me now. His Word is full of healing power. I receive this Word now. I receive the healing that is in His Word now. Healing is inherent in God’s nature. God is in me. My body is the temple of God. My body is the temple of the Lord that healeth me. God is bigger than sickness and Satan. God is dwelling inside of me now, healing me now. The Lord that healeth me is my Shepherd; I do not lack healing. My body is in contact with the Lord that healeth me. My body has to respond to God’s healing life and nature at work in me now. Healing is in God, and God is in me. I thank You, Father, because You are my Healer; and You are healing me now. Exodus 23:25 – And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.

CONFESSION: “I will” is the strongest assertion that can be made in the English language. God is speaking to me now saying, “I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.” God is watching over this Word, performing it in me now. He is taking sickness away from the midst of me. Good-bye, sickness! The Lord is taking you away from the midst of me. Thank You, Father, for taking sickness away from me. I thank You for doing what You said. Deuteronomy 7:15 – And the Lord will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee. (KJV) CONFESSION: The Lord is taking away from me all sickness. His Word contains the ability to do what it says. His Word will not return void but will accomplish what it was sent to do. The Lord is taking away from me
Page 19 all sickness, every trace of weakness and deficiency. Sickness is going out of me now. Thank You, Father, for taking away from me all sickness like You said. Psalm 30:2 – O Lord my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. (KJV) Mark 11:24 – Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. (KJV) CONFESSION: I believe I have received my healing. Thou hast healed me. I don’t consider what I feel. I believe I am healed. Thou hast healed me. Psalm 42:11 – Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God. (KJV) CONFESSION: I refuse to be cast down or discouraged. I am the conqueror. I will yet praise Him who is the health of my countenance and my God. Father, I praise You because You are the health of my countenance. Psalm 91:1-6, 9-10 – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; there shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. (KJV) 1

CONFESSION: I am abiding under the shadow of the Almighty. Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord that healeth me, is my refuge and fortress against disease. His Word is my shield and buckler against sickness. I’m trusting under His wings because Malachi 4:2 says there is healing in His wings. I’m not afraid of disease. I’m not afraid of sickness. I’m abiding under the shadow of Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord that healeth me. No plague shall come nigh my dwelling or my body. I resist sickness and disease. I refuse to accept it! It’s not mine! I refuse to be sick in Jesus’ Name. Sickness cannot trespass in my body. Sickness, (name it), you can’t come nigh my dwelling. I refuse you! I resist you!

he takes away all your diseases. (Basic English)
3…
Who is healing all thy disease. (Young)
CONFESSION: Bless the Lord, Jehovah-Rapha, O my soul. Blessed be God the Father. Lord, I praise You. Lord, I thank You and praise You for Your benefits. (A benefit is a condition of a contract, not a bonus thrown in extra at the discretion of the employer.) You forgive all my sins, all my faults, all my failures and disobedience. You heal all my diseases, and I thank You for it. Healing belongs to me as part of the New Covenant. Healing is my redemptive right. Thank You, Father, for healing all my diseases!
Psalm 107:20 – He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. 20 … he 20 …
sent his word to heal them and preserve their life. (Moffatt)
and delivereth them from their graves. (Leeser)
20 He
sent out His word, and it healed, and from their corruptions it freed! (Fenton)
CONFESSION: He sent His Word and healed me. His Word heals me and delivers me from my destructions. His Word frees me from my corruptions. God’s Word says in Isaiah 55:10-11 that it contains God’s ability to perform what it says. His Word is healing me now. His Word contains His healing power. His Word is working in me now. He has sent His Word and healed me. Proverbs 4:20-22 – 20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. (KJV) 21
… let them penetrate deep within your heart. (Living Bible)
22 Let
a man master them; they will bring life and healing to his whole being. (Knox)
22
… and to all his body a healing. (Leeser)
22
… to every part of one’s flesh they bring healing. (Rotherham)
CONFESSION: God’s Word is health to all my flesh. His Word is medicine to my flesh. I am the Lord that healeth thee is medicine to all my flesh. I will take sickness away from the midst of thee is medicine to my flesh. The Word of God is full of the life of God. That life is saturating my spirit. God’s life and healing power is in His Word, and His Word is at work in me now. The Word of God is depositing the life of God and the healing of God into my spirit. That life and health is spreading out of my spirit into every tissue and pore of my body, creating health and soundness. My body has no choice but to respond to the healing in the Word that is being absorbed into me now. Proverbs 12:18 – There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health. (KJV) 18 A
reckless tongue wounds like a sword, but there is healing power in thoughtful
Page 22 words. (Moffatt) 18 Thoughtless
words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal. (Good News)
18 There
are some whose uncontrolled talk is like the wounds of a sword, but the tongue of the wise makes one well again. (Basic English) CONFESSION: My tongue makes me well. I have what I say. I say, The Lord is my Healer. I say, He takes sickness away from me. I say, No plague can come nigh my dwelling. I say, He healeth all my diseases. What I confess, I possess. My words make me well. There is healing power in my words, for they are God’s Words. I speak health to every muscle, tissue, fiber, and cell in my body. I release God’s healing power with my words into my whole body. Healing is mine!

happy heart is a healing medicine … (Smith-Goodspeed)

22 The 22 A
best medicine is a cheerful heart … (Fenton)

22 …
a broken spirit makes one sick. (Living Bible)
CONFESSION: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! I have a merry heart. Sickness can’t dominate me. Satan can’t dominate me. What do you think you’re trying to do, devil? You can’t put sickness on me. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! I have a merry heart. I’m full of joy. A merry heart works like a medicine. God’s medicine is working in me! Isaiah 53:3-5 – 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 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. (KJV) 3…
a man of pains, and acquainted with disease … (Leeser)
3…
he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease … (Basic English, Masoretic O.T.)
3…
Man of pains and familiar with sickness. (Rotherham, Byington)
4
But only our diseases did he bear himself, and our pains he carried. (Leeser)
Page 23 4 But
it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God’s punishment had come. (Basic English) 4 Surely
our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried … (Masoretic O.T.)
4
Yet surely our sicknesses he carried, And as for our pains he bare the burden of them. (Rotherham)
4
But in fact it was our sicknesses he was carrying, our pains he was loaded with. (Byington)
4
Yet it was our sicknesses that he bore, our pains that he carried. (Smith-Goodspeed)
5
… through his bruises was healing granted to us. (Leeser)
5
… by his stripes there is healing for us. (Rotherham)
5
… the chastisement to give us soundness came on him, and by his stripes we got healing. (Byington)
5
… the blows that fell to him have brought us healing. (Moffatt)

5… 5
by his bruise there is healing for us. (Young)
… the chastisement needful to obtain peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes that wounded Him we are healed and made whole. (Amplified)
CONFESSION: Surely He hath borne my sickness and diseases, and carried my pains. He took my sicknesses on Himself, and carried my pains. He bore them and carried them away to a distance. I don’t have to bear what He bore for me. I refuse to bear what He bore for me. Satan cannot put on me what Jesus bore for me. By His stripes, I am healed. By His stripes, I got healing. By His bruise, there is healing for me. His punishment has brought me healing. Healing has been granted to me. With the stripes that wounded Him, I am healed and made whole. I am made whole by the blows He received. My diseases went to the cross with Jesus and died with Him there. Satan, you’re visiting the wrong one. Jesus took my sicknesses; and by His stripes, I am healed! Malachi 4:2 – But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. (KJV) CONFESSION: The Son of righteousness has arisen, having conquered sickness and Satan. There is healing in His wings. That healing is flowing into me now by His Word. I am trusting beneath His healing wings. Matthew 8:2-3 – And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. (KJV) 2
A leper came up and bowed low in front of him. ‘Sir,’ he said, ‘if you want to you can cure me.’ (Jerusalem)
Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him, and said, ‘Of course I want to! Be cured!’ And his leprosy was cured at once. (Jerusalem) 3

3
… I do will it … (Authentic)
CONFESSION: God wants me well. Healing is the will of God. According to Philippians 2:13, God is at work in me right now to will and to do His good pleasure. Healing is at work in me. Matthew 8:16-17 – When the even was come, 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. (KJV) 17
… He took our infirmities upon Himself, and took away our diseases. (Norlie)
17
… He Himself took (in order to carry away) our weaknesses and infirmities and bore away our diseases.

… He took away our sicknesses and our diseases he removed. (Moffatt)
17
… He took on Himself our sicknesses and carried away our diseases. (New Life)
17
… carried off our diseases. (Wuest, Berkely)
CONFESSION: He Himself took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses. He carried away my sicknesses. He took them away and removed them. Disease is not mine – Healing is mine. I refuse to bear what Jesus bore for me. I refuse to take what He took for me. Satan, you cannot put disease on me, for Jesus took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses. I refuse to accept sickness. I will not tolerate sickness. Sickness and diseases are totally unacceptable. I refuse to accept them. Jesus bore them, so I refuse to have them! Mark 5:25-34 – 25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, 26 and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, 27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she said, If I may touch
Page 25 but his clothes, I shall be whole. 29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. 30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? 31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? 32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. 33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. 34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague. (KJV) 28
… for she kept saying, ‘If I can only touch his clothes, I shall get well.’ (Williams)
28
… for she kept saying, If I touch even his garments, I shall be made whole. (Wuest)
28
… she kept saying … (Phillips)
30
Jesus also was immediately aware that power had been drawn from him … (Authentic)
30
… Jesus, becoming conscious that the healing Power within Him had been in active operation … (Wade)
30
Jesus instantly perceived that healing power had passed from him … (Smith-Goodspeed)
30 Jesus 34 ‘… 34
instantly became conscious that there had been a demand upon his powers …
your own faith has made you well …’ (20th Century)
… Go and enjoy your new health, free from the trouble that was your scourge. (Barclay)
34 …
be entirely free from thy disease. (Diaglott)
CONFESSION: Her faith made her whole, and my faith makes me whole. I have faith, for I am a believer. I believe I receive my healing, and my faith makes me whole. I receive God’s power as mentioned in Ephesians 1:19. The power that raised Christ from the dead is at work in me. My faith puts that power into active operation in my body. Disease has no choice. There is no chance for its survival in my body. The power that raised Jesus from the dead is at work in me. That power is irresistible. It is greater than sickness and disease. That power is flowing in me and makes me whole. I am free. I am entirely free from sickness and disease. I am whole. I believe I have received my healing, and my faith has made me whole! Luke 13:11-13, 16 – 11 And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself. 12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. 13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God. 16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day? (KJV) 11
… an infirmity caused by a spirit [a demon of sickness]. (Amplified)
11
… had a disease caused by an evil spirit; she was bent double and altogether unable to hold herself up. (Plain
English) 11
… a sickness caused by a spirit. (Smith-Goodspeed, Confraternity, NASNT)
… A woman had a spirit that caused an infirmity eighteen years and was completely bent together by a curvature of the spine, and was not able to raise herself up at all. (Wuest) 11

thou art delivered … (Douay)

…‘Your bondage is at an end.’ (Condon)
13
… at once she straightened herself up and burst into praising God. (Williams)
16
… was there not a need … that she be loosed … (Rotherham)
16 …
And ought not this woman, a descendant of Abraham as she is whose power movement Satan has fettered actually for eighteen years, to have been released from such fetters on the day of the Sabbath? (Wade) 16
… For eighteen years Satan has fettered her. Is it not right that she should be liberated? from her fetters?
(Barclay)
And is it not right for this daughter of Abraham, who has been in the power of Satan for eighteen years, to be made free on the Sabbath? (Basic English) 16
But this woman, a daughter of Abraham, who has been in the bondage of Satan — thinks of it! — for eighteen years, should not have the right to be released from her bonds because it is the Sabbath? (Norlie) 16
CONFESSION: Satan can’t bind me with sickness. I believe that, according to Colossians 1:13, I have been delivered from Satan’s dominion and translated into the kingdom of the Son of God. Sickness is ungodly. Sickness is of the devil. Satan, you can’t put sickness on me! Who do you think you are? In Colossians 2:15 and Hebrews 2:14 it says you are a defeated foe. Jesus stripped you of your authority over me. You can’t do this to me. I resist you in Jesus’ Name. I am delivered. I am free. I have been loosed. I am no longer fettered. I am now rid of my infirmity. My bondage is at an end! It is right for me to be completely free, for I am a child of Abraham. According to Galatians 3:14, 29, Abraham’s blessings are mine. Healing is part of the covenant. I am under the covenant. Healing is mine. Healing belongs to me. It is my rightful possession. I have a right to be released. Satan, I demand my rights now! Take your filthy hands off my body! Acts 10:38 – How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. (KJV) 38
… all who were harassed by the devil … (Moffatt)
38
… healing all who were under the power of the devil … (NIV, Plain English)

… healing all that were overpowered by the devil … (New Berkeley)
38
… curing all who were crushed by the power of the devil … (Weymouth)
… God equipped him with Holy Spirit and power, who passed through our midst acting nobly and healing all those who were lorded over by the devil … (Jordan) 38
38
… healing all who suffered from the devil’s power … (Phillips)
38
… Who passed through as a benefactor and healer of all those who are tyrannized over by the Adversary …
(Concordant) 38
… harassed and oppressed by [the power of] the devil … (Amplified)
CONFESSION: Sickness is oppression of the devil. Satan can’t oppress me with sickness, for I have been delivered from his authority through God’s Word in Colossians 1:13. Satan can’t oppress me. I have authority to tread on Satan and demons and all the power the enemy possesses. I tread on sickness. Satan, you can’t lord it over me with foul disease. You can’t do this to me. Sickness, you can’t do this to me. You are visiting the wrong one. Healing is mine. The power that raised Jesus from the dead is at work in me. It is healing power because He is the Lord that healeth. Healing power is at work in me, and I am free! Luke 10:19 – Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. (KJV) I have given you authority to trample on serpents and scorpions and all the might of the satanic foe, and nothing will harm you in any way. (Norlie) 19
19
… I have given you the right to … (Knox)
Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and (physical and mental strength and ability) over all the power that the enemy [possesses], and nothing shall in any way harm you. (Amplified) 19
Yes, I have given you power to trample every evil underfoot, to counter all the might of the enemy; nothing whatever shall harm you. (Condon) 19
19
I have indeed invested you with power to stomp on snakes and scorpions … (Authentic)
CONFESSION: Sickness is a sign of the power of the devil. I trample on all the power of the devil. I trample on disease. I stomp on disease. I tread every evil underfoot. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself gave me authority over all the power of the enemy. I have authority over sickness. Sickness, I trample on you! I tread on you! I stomp on you! Get out, get out, get out! You have no right to dominate me. Get out of my body in Jesus’ Name. Sickness and disease are under my feet because it says in Ephesians 2:6 that I am seated with Christ above all the power of the enemy. Romans 8:2 – For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. (KJV) 2
The spiritual principle of life has set me free, in Jesus Christ, from the principle of sin and death. (Knox)
2
For the principle of spiritual life in Christ Jesus has liberated me from the principle of sin and death.
Page 28 (Translator’s NT) 2
… [the law of our new being] … (Amplified)
Romans 8:11 – But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. (KJV) If the Spirit of God, of Him who raised Jesus from the dead, has its home in you, then He who raised the Messiah Jesus from the dead will thrill with a new life your very bodies — those mortal bodies of yours — by the agency of His own Spirit, which now has its home in you. (Way) 11
If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead has taken possession of you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give your mortal bodies life through his Spirit that has now taken possession of you. 11
(Goodspeed) 11
… will also create life in your mortal bodies … (Godbey)
CONFESSION: The Spirit of God is residing in me. The Spirit of God is making His home in my spirit. The Spirit of the Lord that healeth is creating life, supplying life in my body, making it whole. The life of JehovahRapha is being applied to my body by His Spirit who dwells in me. The life of God drives out every trace of sickness and disease. The life of God is destroying disease and germs in my body now. I Corinthians 6:13, 15, 19, 20 – 13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. 15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. 19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s. (KJV) CONFESSION: My body wasn’t made for sin, but for the Lord. My body wasn’t made for sick-ness, but for the Lord. My body is a member of Christ. My body belongs to Christ. Satan cannot make Christ’s body sick. Satan, how dare you trespass on God’s property. Take your hands off God’s property in Jesus’ Name! My body is the temple of Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord that healeth. He is in me healing me now, for He is the Lord that healeth me. I have been bought with a price. Jesus’ blood cleansed me from all sin; and by His stripes, my body is healed. I glorify God in my body. I refuse to allow disease in my body in Jesus’ Name. You foul disease, take your hands off my body in Jesus’ Name! Galatians 3:13 – Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree … (KJV) 13
Christ ransomed us from the curse of the law by taking that curse upon himself for our sakes … (Translator’s

(The curse of the law is found in Deuteronomy 28. It is the curse for breaking God’s law. It includes sickness, as the Scriptures above show.) Christ bought me back, brought me back, and set me free from the curse of the law. Sickness and disease is part of the curse of the law; therefore, Christ has redeemed me from sickness. I am liberated! I am ransomed! I am free from disease! I am redeemed from every disease written in the curse of the law. I am redeemed from (name specific disease)! I am also redeemed from every disease that is not written in the Book of the Law. Christ has redeemed me – bought me back, brought me back, and set me free from all sickness and disease. Ephesians 4:27 – Neither give place to the devil. (KJV) 27
Stop giving the devil a chance. (Williams)
27
Give the devil no place or opportunity in your life. (Barclay)
27 …
and do not give the devil a chance. (Translator’s NT)
27 …
don’t give in one inch to the devil. (Jordan)
CONFESSION: I refuse to give place to the devil. Sickness and disease are of the devil. I refuse to give place to sickness and disease. Satan, you can’t put them on my body. You can’t! You can’t! You can’t! I say no, and I mean no. No sickness or plague comes nigh my dwelling. You have the wrong address. I will not give in one inch. Satan, you have no place in my body. You can’t do this to me. I won’t have it. It is unacceptable. It is not mine, and you cannot give it to me. You have no place in me or my body. I belong to God. Sickness, you have no choice but to go because I’m not giving you a chance. Get out now!

Satan, I’ve been delivered from your authority. You can’t put sickness on me. I have passed out of your jurisdiction over into the kingdom of the Son of God. I am a citizen in the kingdom of Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord that healeth me. I have been transplanted into the kingdom of His Son.

Get out! Remove yourself. You must flee from my body now! James 5:15-16 – 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.

I Peter 5:8-9 – 8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

III John 2 – Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. (KJV) CONFESSION: I am prospering and I am in health even as my soul prospers because it is God’s will for me. God is at work in me to do His will and pleasure. Jehovah-Rapha is at work in me – healing me! Philippians 2:13 – For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. (KJV) CONFESSION: God is at work in me.

18 They

CONFESSION: The Name of Jesus is greater than sickness. Jesus conquered sickness and disease. In the Name of Him who conquered sin, sickness, and Satan, I command disease to leave my body. Satan, take your hands off my body! I cast you out in Jesus’ Name. You can’t do this to me. In the Name of Jesus, I am free! John 14:12-14 – Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. (KJV) CONFESSION: There is power in the Name of Jesus! Jesus is the resurrected healing Lord. In the Name of Jesus, I command disease to leave my body. My body is healed in Jesus’ Name. I believe Acts 3:16; that through faith in His Name, my body is perfectly sound. I am healed in Jesus’ Name!
Page 36 Acts 3:16 – And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

CONFESSION: I was crucified with Christ. I died with Him to sickness and disease. Christ the Healer lives in me. Healing is in me. Christ in me heals me. John 15:4-5 – Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. (KJV) 4 Get
your life from Me and I will live in you. No branch can give fruit by itself. It has to get life from the vine. You are able to give fruit only when you have life from Me (New Life) 5…
I am the Vine and you are the branches. Get your life from Me. (New Life)
4 You
must go on growing in me and I will grow in you. For just as the branch cannot bear any fruit unless it shares the life of the vine, so you can produce nothing unless you go on growing in me. I am the vine itself; you are the branches. (Phillips) 5 It
is the man who shares my life and whose life I share who proves fruitful. For the plain fact is that apart from me you can do nothing at all. (Phillips) CONFESSION: I am in union with Christ. My spirit is in union with Christ the Healer. I draw out His healing power, and it is manifested in my body. I am one with the healing Vine. I am in union with the healing Christ. I have His life and health in me!

(Prov. 18:21) I have been given authority in the name of Jesus to speak to the mountains that I face.

Healing Scriptures Exodus 15:26 He said, “If you listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, who heals you.” Exodus 23:25 Worship the LORD your God and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you. Deuteronomy 7:15 The LORD will keep you free from every disease. He will not inflict on you the horrible diseases you knew in Egypt… Deuteronomy 28:1-14, 61 If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the LORD your God: You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country. The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock--the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks. Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed. You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. The LORD will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven. The LORD will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The LORD your God will bless you in the land he is giving you. The LORD will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the LORD your God and walk in his ways. Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the LORD, and they will fear you. The LORD will grant you abundant prosperity--in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground--in the land he swore to your forefathers to give you. The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them. The LORD will also bring on you every kind of sickness and disaster not recorded in this Book of the Law, until you are destroyed. Deuteronomy 30:19-20 This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I Kings 8:56 Praise be to the LORD, who has given rest to his people Israel just as he promised. Not one word has failed of all the good promises he gave through his servant Moses.
Page 40 Psalm 91:16 With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation. Psalm 103:3 Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits--who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases. Psalm 107:20 He sent forth his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave. Psalm 118:17 I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done. Proverbs 4:20-23 My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to a man’s whole body. Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 53:4-5 Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. Jeremiah 1:12 The LORD said to me, “You have seen correctly, for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled.” Jeremiah 30:17 But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds,’ declares the LORD, `because you are called an outcast, Zion for whom no one cares.’ Joel 3:10 Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weakling say, `I am strong! ` Nahum 1:9 Whatever they plot against the LORD he will bring to an end; trouble will not come a second time. Matthew 8:2-3 A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.” Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cured of his leprosy. Matthew 8:17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: “He took up our infirmities and carried our diseases.”
Page 41 Matthew 18:18-19 “I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. “Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. Matthew 21:21 Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, `Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done. Mark 11:23-24 “I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, `Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. Mark 16:17-18 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.” John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. Romans 4:17-21 Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead--since he was about a hundred years old--and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. Romans 8:11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives in you. II Corinthians 10:4-5 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. Galatians 3:13-14 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. Ephesians 6:10-17 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can
Page 42 take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Philippians 2:13 ...for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose. Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. II Timothy 1:7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:35 So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. Hebrews 11:11 By faith Abraham, even though he was past age--and Sarah herself was barren--was enabled to become a father because he considered him faithful who had made the promise. Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. James 5:14-15 Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. I Peter 2:24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. I John 3:21-22 Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask; because we obey his commands and do what pleases him.
Page 43 III John 2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. Revelations 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
Jesus is my healer He bore my sicknesses and my diseases and pain I expect to receive now. Pray this prayer in faith and mean it with your whole heart Accept it and believe it!
Father, the word of God, that I have heard and confess is the power of God unto my salvation I confess that Jesus Christ is Lord over my life, spirit, soul and body I receive the power of God to make me whole, sound, deliver, saved and healed now I act on the word of God and receive His power

Page 44 Then your light shall break forth like the dawn, and healing shall spring up quickly. Isaiah 58:8 Who his own self bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, being dead to sin, should live unto righteousness, by whose stripes we were healed. I Peter 2:24 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Psalm 107:20 Daughter your faith has made you well, go in peace, and be healed of your disease. Mark 5:34 Whatever you ask for in Prayer with faith you will receive. Matthew 21:22 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee. Exodus 15:26 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases. Psalm 103:3 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them and health to all their flesh. Proverbs 4:20-22 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. Isaiah 53:5 Heal me, O Lord and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for thou art my praise. Jeremiah 17:14
Page 45 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, this is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.

Confess your faults one to another pray one for another that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
