AMPLIFIED 2015 | Isaiah 53:5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was crushed for our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing]; The punishment [required] for our well-being fell on Him, And by His stripes (wounds) we are healed. |
Bible Question: Why do some claim we are Healed already? That all we have to do is receive our healing? If this is true why would God give the gift of healing, or command us to have the Elders of the church to pray for us when we are sick? Isn't God Sovereign? I think of Job and the Apostle Paul (2 Cor 12). Please provide some clarity here. |
Bible Answer: If you look at the verse of scripture in Rom.10:9-10; that is a Bible principle, it works not only in salvation, but in healing ,delieverence etc.. The word for salvation includes healing .delieverence, provision etc.. Your salvation was done on the cross years ago ,Jesus doesn't have to come and save you again ,He did it then. He doesn't have to come and heal you again , He did it then ,the same blood on the same cross paid for it all . His sacrifice was enough to provide everything you could ever need in this world and the next ,He didn't leave anything out . Healing was included in the package deal .Its in our Covenant .AS many times as you look at the word , It still says " I Am the Lord who healeth thee" , Jesus Christ ,the same yesterday , today and for ever , The WORD never changes .You recieve it the same way you recieved salvation ,you confess with your lips , you believe in your heart , and God does the rest. Some people have a hard time receiveing, they need to "feel the oil " on them , they need to have hands laid on them to receive . How ever you get it, God made a way for different people .He healed some with just a word , others He laid hands on , others He had dip in the water , He spit on some .Whatever it took ,They were healed . Sometimes I pray and ask what He wants me to do , to receive ... Maybe He wants to do a new thing .Thats why its so important to walk in the Spirit ,and be led by the Holy Spirit .He can show you these things . |
