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." (Prov. 4: 20-22)
The Bible is clear. These verses, and many others throughout the
Word of God, promise that it is God's divine will to heal you.
There are many, however, that will make a career out of
disputing this. That is so sad because they are holding back
God's greatest promise of miracles from themselves and many
others. It's quite simply a sign of unbelief on their part. Many
claim that they have prayed and prayed, but nothing happened.
Have you been there? I know I have; many times before I
discovered the secret.
The question is not whether it is God's Will to heal, but rather
whether you really believe it. Faith comes by hearing, and
hearing by the Word of God. (Rom. 10: 17) That's in essence
saying that, if you are not familiar with the whole Word of God,
then it's hard to build up your faith.
Every believer has been given the measure of faith. (Rom. 12: 3)
God did not say 'a' measure, suggesting that some have more than
others. He tells us that we all have 'the' measure to live a
full, abundant life! In fact, you only need faith the size of a
grain of mustard seed to remove mountains of burdens from your
life! (Mat. 17: 20)
Ask yourself the following questions: "Do I beg God for my needs
only when I am in real trouble"? "Do I know God's Promises for
my life? and Do I know how to pray effectively"?
These questions are crucial to having your needs met. The
answers are all in the Word of God and they must be personally
discerned. No, don't give up now! Don't tell yourself that it's
too hard or too complicated! It's not! The gospel is very simple
and easy to understand! It's all about coming to the Lord as a
little child, climbing on your Daddy's knee and telling Him your
needs. He already knows what you need before you ask Him! (Mat.
6: 8)
When you were a child, did your earthly father mean well and
promise you all kinds of things? You know that he loved you, but
yet you could not be sure that he would give you whatever you
asked, right? If your father was generous with you, then how
much more shall your Father in heaven give good things to them
that ask him? (Mat. 7: 11)
All you need to do is ask Him, seek and knock because:
"every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth;
and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." (Mat. 7: 8)
Are there any conditions to receiving your requests? Yes; really
only one, and that is to know the One whom you're asking! If
your father was a stranger to you, you wouldn't ask him
anything, would you? The Bible is Heavenly Father's loveletter
written especially for you! Read a part of it every day and then
meditate on it. The Father's heart will be laid bare before you
through His Word. Only then can you truly understand the First
Commandment:
"Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy
soul, and with all thy mind and with all thy strength. (Mark.
12: 30)
The more you read about Him, the closer He draws to you and the
better you get to know Him. Remember, he created Adam to have
fellowship with Him! That's all He wants from you; to be able to
walk and talk with you. He is your greatest friend and
benefactor; you'll see! The more you trust Him for healing your
headache and receive your healing, the more your faith will grow
for healing of more serious illnesses and conditions!
Think of it this way: are you a social network chatter, keeping
in touch daily with all your past and present friends? Millions
of people are! How about chatting first and foremost with your
only true friend! He is the only one:
"Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Who
healeth all thy
diseases, who redeemeth thy life from destruction; Who crowneth
thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thy
mouth with good things, so that thy youth is renewed like the
eagle's." (Ps. 103: 3-5)
See? It's not hard. The better you get to understand His Word,
the more of it gets stored in your heart. The Word of God will
instantly flow out, coupled with the faith it has produced,
whenever you will need it most. That's when He will say to you:
"Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver
him; I will set him on high, because he has known my name. He
shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in
trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will
I satisfy him, and show him my salvation." (Ps. 91: 14-16)
