Before I get into this blog, let me say that even though God absolutely wants to heal you, He is not the variable – you are!
Acts 10:34 (KJV) 34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
Romans 2:11 (KJV) 11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
Ephesians 6:9 (KJV) 9 And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.
As you can see, God is not respecter of people and what He’s done for one, He can do for others, if they’ll believe and receive. Remember, it’s not God Who’s the variable – it’s us! In fact, it’s not even the devil because we can bind him and he must flee.
James 4:7 (KJV) 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Now, even though God is not a respecter of people, that He’s not preferring one over another, He is a respecter of faith. And those that operate in faith in His Word are the ones who get results. In this case, it’s healing.
Hebrews 11:6 (KJV) 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Here we see that if we walk in and by faith, we’re rewarded with results! Sound good to me! How ‘bout you?
So, just what is this faith that pleases God? Simply put, it’s our part in believing His Word and acting on it. Or as Andrew Wommack says, “It’s our positive response to what God has already provided by His grace.”
Faith is actually what activates God’s power and brings the healing into manifestation. The power and healing are already available in the spirit realm. But in order to get it to manifest in the physical realm, we have to use our faith.
Everything about our healing was bought and paid for by the Lord Jesus. And it’s the height of audacity and ignorance to think that we have to add to what Jesus has already done by being sick and disabled! Our salvation was complete and healing was part of it! Glory to God!
1 Peter 2:24 (KJV)
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
