Do you have faith to minister healing to others?
Jesus emphasized “those who believe”.
Again, let’s take a look at the Great Commission.
After His resurrection, Jesus spoke in Mark chapter 16:
17 And these signs will follow those who believe (G4100): In My Name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;
18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
The word believe (G4100) means: to think to be true, to be persuaded of, to credit, place confidence in the thing believed; to have faith; to have trust.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 12:
1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
2 looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith, Who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the Right Hand of the Throne of God.
We must remember that it was by His stripes Divine healing comes forth, not by our works or efforts. It is by His power and authority, we are His agents who are called to deliver the manifestation of healing to those in need.
Paul also wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 5:
17 Death once held us in its grip, and by the blunder of one man, death reigned as king over humanity. But now, how much more are we held in the grip of grace and continue reigning as kings in life, enjoying our regal freedom through the gift of perfect righteousness in the one and only Jesus, the Messiah!
18 In other Words, just as condemnation came upon all people through one transgression, so through one righteous act of Jesus’ sacrifice, the perfect righteousness that makes us right with God and leads us to a victorious Life is now available to all.
19 One man’s disobedience opened the door for all humanity to become sinners. So also one man’s obedience opened the door for many to be made perfectly right with God and acceptable to Him.
You and I minister healing based on Jesus’ performance, not our own. It is only by His power and His authority are we able to minister healing. This Spiritual power originates with Him, not us.
Whatever you focus on is going to determine your experience!
You can walk in Divine health solely because of what Jesus did at the cross. We must bring our mindsets into full conformity to this Truth. My wife and I take Holy Communion every morning to keep this Truth before us at all times. Does FATHER require us to take Communion every morning? Not at all. We simply want to keep this Truth before us daily.
Let us accept the simplicity of what Jesus did for all of mankind. It is not based on some elusive formula or steps of performance. His Blood was and is sufficient for all health and healing.
Healing belongs to me (and you) because of what Jesus has done.
Jesus spoke in John chapter 10:
10 A thief has only one thing in mind—he wants to steal, slaughter, and destroy. But I have come to give you everything in abundance, more than you expect—life in its fullness until you overflow!
Jesus is the Provider, we are the recipients. We need to see ourselves as personal representatives of Jesus the Healer. We are called to deliver healing to those in need. As we exalt Jesus as the Provider, we are able by His Power and Authority, deliver healing to those in need. This includes our own healing as well.
Consider yourself as a UPS driver delivering a package. The recipient does not glorify you because you simply did your job. All you did was to physically deliver and complete the transaction.
