God's Words When You Have Physical Disease

Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers. 3 John 2

Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, healing every sickness and every disease among the people. Matthew 9:35

Luke 6: 19
The whole multitude sought to touch Him because of the healing power that went out of Him, and He healed every single one of them.

Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever. Hebrews 3: 18

He bore our sins Himself in His own body on the tree so that we who were dead in sin might be alive in righteousness. By His stripes you were healed. 1 Peter 2: 24

He forgives all your iniquities; He heals all your diseases. Psalm 103:3

He was wounded for our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement needed to obtain our peace and well-being was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. (The 39 stripes) Isaiah 53:5

Heal me oh Lord and I shall be healed, save me and I shall be saved, for You are my praise. Jeremiah 17: 14

I will restore health unto you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says the Lord. Jeremiah 30:17

If you will diligently listen to the Lord your God, do what is right in His sight, listen to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you which I put upon the Egyptians, for I, the Lord, am your healer. Ex 15:26

Proverbs 4: 20-22
My son, attend to my words, incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart, for they are life to those that find them and health to all of their bodies.

He sent His word and healed them and delivered them from all their destructions. Psalm 107:20

The centurion said to Jesus, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word and my servant shall be healed, for I am subject to authority with servants subject to me. I say to one go, and he goes, to another one come and he comes, and to my slave do this and he does it.”

Jesus Himself was amazed. He said, “I tell you the truth, I have never seen such faith in anyone, not even in Israel.” {His faith was also spiritual understanding.}

Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way, and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour. Matthew 8:8-10, 13

James 5: 14, 15
Is anyone sick among you? Let him call 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 will save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he has committed any sins, they shall be forgiven.

These signs will follow those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues, they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them. They will lay hands on the sick and they will recover. Mark 16: 17,18

You shall be blessed above all peoples...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 who hate you. Deuteronomy 7: 15, 16

vs 8 ...because the Lord loves you and because He would keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage.

But for you who revere my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go out and leap like calves released from the stall. Mal 4:12

If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. Mark 9:23

Luke 1: 46,47
My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit has rejoiced in God my saviour. For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant.

Do not be afraid, only believe and she will be made well. Daughter, be of good cheer. Your faith has made you well. Luke 8

And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear. But Jesus answered and said, "permit even this" and He touched his ear and healed him. Luke 22: 50,51

He entered the synagogue...and a man was there whose right hand was withered. He said to the man, "stretch out your hand," and he did so, and his hand was restored to whole as the other. Luke 6: 6, 10

Ps 34: 3, 17, 19, 20
My soul makes its boast in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and be glad.
The righteous cry and the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones, none of them are broken.

He delivers me out of all my troubles. He delivers me from all my afflictions.

..and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated but rather be healed. Heb. 12: 13

"...I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears, behold I will heal you..." II Kings 20:5

Bless the Lord oh my soul, and all that is within me, bless His holy name.
Bless the Lord oh my soul and forget not all His benefits; who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases. Who redeems your life from the pit. Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies. Who satisfies your years with good things as long as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagles. Ps 103: 1-3

Purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean. Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
Make me hear joy and gladness, that the bones you have broken may rejoice. Ps 51: 7,8

For You will light my lamp; The Lord God will enlighten my darkness. For by You I can run against a troop, by my God I can leap over a wall. He makes my feet like the feet of deer, and sets me on my high places.
Psalm 18: 28, 29, 33

As you do not know the way of the wind, or how the spirit comes to the bones of the woman who is with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything. Eccl. 11:5

But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; upon Him was the chastisement that made us whole and with His stripes we are healed. Is 53:5

He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds we have been healed. (1 Peter 2:24, Rom 6:11, 2 Cor 5:21)

If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9

God's redemptive work of forgiveness includes HIS REDEMPTIVE WORK OF HEALING. Because I am forgiven and cleansed I am also healed.

"Speak to Aaron saying: 'No man of your descendants in succeeding generations who has any defect, may approach to offer the bread of his God. For any man who has a defect shall not approach: a blind man or lame, who has a marred face or any limb too long, a man who has a broken foot or broken hand." Lev 21: 17,18

The Lord did not want anyone in His presence who was not physically perfect. He has no delight in physical defects. To be in His presence today means to be restored. He restores us because it pleases him to restore us to the perfection THAT WAS HIS ORIGINAL DESIGN. Look at birds, at your cat or dog and the unbelievable symmetry that God took the trouble to create in them, with thousands of tiny hairs covering their bodies. If it did not please him to make things so perfectly, why is all of nature this way?

Do not be wise in your own eyes. Fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones. Proverbs 3:7,8

And suddenly, a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years came from behind and touched the hem of His garment. For she said to herself, "If only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well." But Jesus turned around and when He saw her He said, "Be of good cheer daughter, your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that hour. Matt 9: 20-22

When Jesus departed from there, two blind men followed Him crying out and saying, "Son of David have mercy on us!" And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to Him, "Yes, Lord." Then He touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith let it be to you." And their eyes were opened. Matt 9: 27-30

Go and tell John the things which you hear and see: the blind see and the lame walk the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them. Matt 11: 4,5

O you of little faith, why did you doubt? Matt 14: 31

If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed you will say to this mountain, "Move from here to there," AND IT WILL MOVE; AND NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU. Matt 17: 20

I speak to this mountain of affliction and oppression and say 'be thou moved away from me.'

...with God all things are possible. Matt 19: 26

And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent out into all that surrounding region, brought to Him all that were sick, and begged Him that they might only touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched it were made perfectly well. Matt 14: 35,36

The thief came to steal, to kill me if he could have, and to destroy my faith and hope, but Jesus came that I might have life and have it more abundantly-He came to restore, to recreate, to bolster faith, hope and love and to set me my on my way prospering and bringing life to others. John 10:10

Jesus, you have given me abundant life. I receive that life through Your Word and it flows to every part of my body bringing healing and health. The words you have spoken, Jesus, are spirit and life and it is the spirit that gives life! (see also John 6:63)

It is NOT abundant life to be diseased and lame and to have one's productivity and prosperity hindered.

Jer 30:17
I will restore you to health and heal all your wounds, declares the Lord.

Behold, I will bring it to health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them an abundance of prosperity and security. 33:6

And Jesus answered saying to them, have faith in God. Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain "be taken up and cast into the sea," and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it shall be granted to him. Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them and they shall be granted to you.

And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your father also who is in heaven may forgive you your transgressions. But if you do not forgive, neither will your father who is in heaven forgive your transgressions. Mark 11:22-26

I am free from un-forgiveness and strife. By the power of Your Spirit, Jesus, I forgive anyone who has wronged me. I forgive others as Christ has forgiven me, for the love of God is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Ghost. (Matt 6:12, Rom 5:5)

Jo 11: 2-4..."Lord, behold he whom you love is sick."
But when Jesus heard it he said, "this sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified by it."

Did I not say to you, if you believe you will see the glory of God? vs. 40

I believe and I shall see the glory of God.

And as He passed by He saw a man blind from birth. And His disciples asked Him saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents that he should be born blind?" Jesus answered, "It was neither that this man sinned, nor his parents; but it was in order that the works of God [healing] might be displayed in him." Jo 9: 1-3

A Very Useful Prayer to pray often! Ps 25: 16
Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. The troubles of my heart are enlarged. Bring me out of my distresses. Look upon my affliction and my trouble, and forgive all my sins.

Let those who seek thee rejoice and be glad in Thee; let those who love Thy salvation say continually, "The Lord be magnified." Since I am afflicted and needy, let the Lord be mindful of me. Thou art my help and my deliverer; do not delay O my God. Ps 40

Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Luke 10:19

The Son of God appeared for this purpose, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3:8

Prov 4:20-22
Heavenly Father, I attend to Your Word. I incline my ears to your sayings. I will not let them depart from my eyes. I keep them in the midst of my heart, for they are life and healing to all my flesh.

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us... Gal 3:13 Jesus became a curse for me. I am redeemed from the curse. The curse that manifested in my body and mind is destroyed.

My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. That Holy Spirit in me has the power to release the right chemical balance and to grow back what is missing.

The Spirit that raised Jesus Christ from the dead lives in my mortal body. If that Spirit lives in me who raised Jesus from the dead, that Spirit in me releases life to all my body and mind. I command my body and mind to submit to that Spirit.

All that is not from God is rooted out of my body and mind.

Body and soul, I speak the word of faith to you. I demand that every part of my body and soul perform a perfect work, as a temple of the Holy Spirit. I charge you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the authority of His holy word to be healed and made whole in Jesus' name. Prov 12:18

I am the temple of the Holy Spirit within me, which I have from God. I am not my own. I was bought with a price. God is glorified in my body.

Father I resist the enemy in every form that he comes against me. I require my body to be strong and healthy, and I enforce it with Your Word. I reject the curse and enforce life in this body. James 4:7 (submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.)

Father, you forgave my sins, you healed my diseases, you redeemed my life from destruction, you have satisfied my mouth with good things so that my youth is renewed. Ps 103

Lord, you bless my food and drink so that they are pure, and I thank you.

Lord, you bless my animals, which you gave me dominion over, and heal them also. You protect them and give them health. You enable me to care for them. You love me through them. They reflect your humor, your gentleness, your sweetness, and the wonder of your creative power.

I shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord. Ps 118:17

But if the Spirit of Him who raised Christ from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you. Romans 8:11

He is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us. Eph, 3:20

...for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye. Zech. 2: 8

...not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit says the Lord. 4:6

Everything we do, Lord God, is not by power, nor by might but by your Holy Spirit.

Mark 16: 17
And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues, they will take up serpents and if they drink anything deadly it will by no means hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.

In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father, he will give it to you in my name.
Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name; ask and you will receive, that your joy may be full. John 16:23,24

Is 65:24
Before they call I will answer, while they are yet speaking I will hear.

Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects. James 5:16

John 14:13,14
Whatever you ask in my name I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son; if you ask anything in my name, I will do it.

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. Hebrews 10:35,36

So shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth, it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish what I please and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. Is 55

Now see that I, even I am He and there is no God besides me. I kill and make alive, I wound and I heal, nor is there any who can deliver from My hand. Deuteronomy 32:39

“I say to you though he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs. So I say to you, ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened unto you.” Luke 11: 8,9

I have asked and I will persist, and it will be given to me, I have sought and I will find, I have knocked and it will be opened unto me.

"More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it." vs 28
We keep God's word by enforcing His will to heal us, revealed clearly in His word.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. ALL THINGS WERE MADE THROUGH HIM and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life and this life was the light of man. John 1: 1-4, 14

vs 14 AND THE WORD BECAME FLESH and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory , the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

As You were the Word that became flesh, Jesus, I want Your Word to become flesh in me.

O Lord my God, I cried out to You and You healed me.
O Lord, You brought my soul up from the grave. You have kept me alive that I should not go down to the pit. Psalm 30: 2,3

I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears. This poor man cried out, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. Psalm 34: 4, 6

My eye wastes away because of affliction.

LORD, I have called daily upon You;
I have stretched out my hands to You. Psalm 88:9

Read Psalm 102

This is my comfort in my affliction,
For Your word has given me life. Psalm 119:50

My soul faints for Your salvation,
But I hope in Your word.
My eyes fail from searching Your word,
Saying, “When will You comfort me?” vs. 81,82

1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
And He inclined to me,
And heard my cry.
2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,
Out of the miry clay,
And set my feet upon a rock,
And established my steps.
3 He has put a new song in my mouth—
Praise to our God;
Many will see it and fear,
And will trust in the LORD. Psalm 40:1-3

I said, “LORD, be merciful to me;
Heal my soul, for I have sinned against You.” Psalm 41:4
