Faith to be healed

“And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked: The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed, Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.” Acts 14:8-10(KJV)

Reading from our opening scripture, you will notice that there is a need for faith for people to receive their healing. In Mark 5:25, the Bible tells us about the woman with the issue of blood who had suffered many things from many physicians, but rather grew worse. The Bible says in Mark 5:27 that when she heard about Jesus, she came and touched His garment, and was healed. She acted on her faith and she received her healing.

The Bible tells us how faith comes in Romans 10:17, the Bible says, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” The woman with the issue of blood heard about Jesus and faith came to her. In the same way, whenever you hear the Word of God, faith comes to you.

When faith comes to you, go ahead and exercise your faith just like the woman with the issue of blood. She first expressed her faith by her declaration. The Bible says in Mark 5:28, “For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.” What are you confessing with your mouth? Your confession matters, because your confession is a reflection of your faith.

Therefore, you must begin to use your mouth to declare the Word of God concerning your health everyday. Please declare out loud the confession below.

CONFESSION
“I am strong, the Word of God abides in me, and I have overcome the wicked one.” “By the stripes of Jesus I have been healed.” “My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.” “The Spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwells in me and vitalizes my body.”

For further study read:
Matthew 9:28-29, Matthew 13:58, Mark 10:46-52,
Mark 9:23.

DOING THE WORD
Go ahead and exercise your faith and declare what you want to see manifested concerning your health and total well being as a child of God.
