God is God! He’s exactly Who He says He is and He will do what He said He will do; He cannot lie! Remember, all the promises of God are YES!
2 Corinthians 1:20 (KJV) 20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
Numbers 23:19 (KJV) 19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
1 Kings 8:56b (KJV) 56 … there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.
So where does that leave us? If God will do what He said in His Word, why does it seem so hard to get results when we pray? Good question. Read on!
God’s Word is his will and if we’ll stand on His Word, in faith, we’ll get our desired results. Everything with God works by faith. So even though God has promised us things in His Word, the only way we can access them is by faith.
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.
It’s not your prayer and fasting, Bible study, church attendance, or tithes and offerings that gets your prayers answered. It’s faith in God’s Word that He will do what He said He will do and that includes healing! That’s why I use so many scriptures in my blogs so that you know that it’s God’s will.
Healing is part of the Lord Jesus’ atonement – bought and paid for by His precious Blood. And as born-again Christians, it belongs to us just as much as the forgiveness of sins.
Isaiah 53:4-5 (KJV) 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.
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.
God’s Word is His will and His Word must be the final authority for all we believe and do! The evil report [of sickness and disease] is not the last report. Don’t ever agree with the evil report. God’s Word is the final authority and God always backs up His Word!
John 10:10 (KJV) 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
