How to know it is God’s will to heal you. Not just God CAN heal you, but God WILL heal you! He wants to heal you and He PROMISES in His Word to heal you. His will is for you to fulfill the number of your days in HEALTH.
I want to talk
to you today about “Is Healing For
Everyone?" Or, another title would be
“How To Know It Is G-d’s Will To Heal
You.”
Healing is still the will
of G-d as it was in the past. It is G-d’s will to heal ALL
who have need of healing – and to fulfill the number of their
days! The greatest barrier to those who are seeking mental
healing as well as physical healing is the uncertainty in their
mind as to whether it is the will of G-d to heal
everyone.
Nearly everyone believes
that G-d heals some, but there is much in modern theology that
keeps people from knowing what the Holy Bible teaches that
healing is for everyone.
It’s impossible to boldly
claim by faith a blessing that were NOT SURE that G-d offers,
because the power of God can be claimed only when the will of G-d
is known. For example, concerning salvation, it would be nearly
impossible to get someone to believe unto righteousness before you
had fully convinced them that it is G-d’s will to save them. He
wants to save them. He wants people to live in Heaven with Him:
forever!
Faith begins where the will
of G-d is known. If it is G-d’s will to heal only some of those who
need healing, then none have any basis for faith unless they have a
special revelation that they are among the chosen ones. Faith must
rest on the will of G-d alone and not on our desires and wishes. In
the next few podcasts I am going to cover how it is the will of G-d
to heal – everyone!
Appropriating faith is not
believing that G-d can, but that G-d will. Lots of believers in
Messiah Yeshua will tell you, “Oh, I believe that G-d CAN heal me.”
However, the WILL of G-d is what we want. Do they believe, “Yes I
believe that G-d WILL heal me.” Because of not knowing that healing
is a redemptive privilege for everyone, most of those in our day,
when asking G-d for healing, add to their prayer the phrase, “if it
is your will.”
Among all those who sought
healing from the Messiah Yeshua during His earthly ministry, we
read of only one who had this kind of theology. That was the leper
who said, “Lord, IF you will, you can make me clean.” The
first thing Messiah Yeshua did was to correct the leper’s theology
by saying, “I will. You be clean.” Yeshua’s “I will”
cancelled the leper’s “If.” Adding to the leper’s faith that
Messiah COULD heal him, that He WOULD heal him!
The theology of this leper
before Messiah enlightened him is almost universal today, because
this part of the Good News of Messiah Yeshua is so seldom and
fragmentarily preached. And we see from almost every conceivable
angle throughout the scriptures there is no doctrine – no teaching
– more clearly taught than that it IS G-d’s will to heal ALL:
everyone who has need of healing. And that they my fulfill the
number of their days according to His promise(s).
Remember that all those who
Yeshua called back from the dead were young people who had not
lived out their fullness of years. And in that very fact we
may see Messiah's protest against premature death. Of
course we must not expect that the old shall be physically young,
but if the allotted life span has not been spent, we have a right
to claim G-d’s gift of health AND healing. And even if that span be
past, if it be His will that we should continue here for a time
longer, it’s equally his will that we should do so in good health.
Of course, I mean all who are properly taught and who meet the
conditions prescribed in the Word.
You may hear someone say,
“Well, if healing is for all, then we shall never die.” Why not?
Divine healing goes no further than the promise of G-d. G-d does
not promise that we shall never die, but He says:
“And ye shall serve the
LORD your G-d, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I
will take sickness away from the midst of thee . . . the number of
thy days I will fulfil.” (Torah: Exodus
23:25-26)
“The days of our years
are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be
fourscore years . . .” (Psalm 90:10)
“I said, O my G-d, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.” (Psalm 102:24)
“Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time?” (Ecclesiastes 7:17)
A person might ask, “Well,
how is a person going to die?” Psalm 104:29 tells
us:
“Thou hidest thy face, they
are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return
to their dust.”
G-d has given man a
certain span of live, and His will is that life should be lived
out.
