(God's will to forgive)
INTRODUCTION
Since christ bare our sins, how many say is it Gods will to forgive?Answer: He healed them all.
I. TRADITION OF MEN
Another tradition is that if we are righteous, we should expect sicknesses as a part of our life.They quote the scripture:Many are the afflictions of the righteous psalm 34:19,but this does not mean sickness as some would have us believe. It means trials, hardships, persecutions, temptations, etc,but never sickness or physical disabilities.
II. A CONTRADICTION
It would be a contradiction to say that christ has born our sicknesses, and with his stripes we are healed, and then to add,Many are the sicknesses of the righteous, which He requires us to bear.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS -27
His mercy
INTRODUCTION
Bodily healing in the New Testament was called a mercy, and it was His mercy which always moved Him to heal all the sick. His promises is,He is plenteous in mercy unto all that call upon him psalm 86:5.That includes you, today.
I. BORNE OUR SICKNESSES
The correct translation of Isaiah 53:4 is: surely or certainly He hath borne our sicknesses, and carried our pains. To prove that our sicknesses were carried away by christ, just like our sins were carried away, the same Hebrew verb for borne and carried is used to describe both. See verses 11-12
II. CHRIST WAS MADE SIN-
Christ was made sin for us 2cor.5:21 when He bare our sins 1peter2:24; He was made a curse for us (Gal.3:13)when He bare our diseases (Matt.8:17).

FACTS-26
(Is any sick among you?)
INTRODUCTION
In James 5:14-15 we read, Is any sick among you ? let him call for 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 shall save the sick, and the lord shall raise him up.This promise is for all,including you, if you are sick.
I. DIVINE HEALING AND MEDICAL SCIENCE -
If God today has abandoned healing in answer to prayer in favour of healing only by medical science, as modernistic teachers claim, that would mean that he requires us to use a less successful method during a better dispensation. He healed them all" then, but today many diseases are incurable by medical science.
II. THE SICK MAN
Paul tells us that God would have us prepared unto every good work "(2 Timothy 2:21),thoroughly furnished unto all good works"(2Timothy 3:17),perfect in every good work "(Heb.13:21),and abounding unto every good work "(2cor.9:8).A sick man cannot measure up to these scriptures. These conditions would be impossible if healing is not for all.Either healing is not for all,or these scriptures do not apply to all.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-25
"Ask anything in my name "
INTRODUCTION
In John 14:12-14, christ emphasized His promise," if ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it," by repeating it twice. He did not exclude HEALING from this promise. "Anything " includes healing. This promise is for all.
I. WHAT THINGS SOEVER
If healing is not for all,christ should have qualified his promise in mark 11:24 accordingly, and said, what things SOEVER ye desire (EXCEPT HEALING),when he pray, believe that he receive them, and ye shall have them ",but he did not.Healing, therefore is included in the what things soever".This promise is made to you.
II. IF YE ABIDE IN ME
If it is not God's will to heal all, the promise in John 15:7 would not be dependable where Christ said "if ye abide in me ,and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what he will and it shall be done unto you"

Matthew 4:12 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;
Matthew 4:16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Matthew 11:2 Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, 11:3 And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? 11:4 Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: 11:5 The blind receive their sight, 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.

I. JESUS'S HOUR OF DARKNESS
Darkness means misery destruction death sorrows.
Jesus hour of darkness came when the light ceased. He was the light because God was with him.
Luke 22:53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

(God is not glorified in sickness)
INTRODUCTION
John 11:4 is used to prove that sickness glorifies God,but God was not glorified in this case until Lazarus was raised up from the dead, the result of which many of the Jews...believed on him vs.45
I. ANOTHER TRADITION -
Is that while God heals some it is not the father's will to heal them all.But Jesus, who came to do the father's will, did heal them all.
II. WHY DID JESUS BARE OUR SICKNESS
If healing is not for all, why did Jesus bare our sickness our pains, and our diseases?If God wanted some of his children to suffer, then Jesus relieved us from bearing something which God wanted us to bare.But since Jesus came to do the will of the father, and since he hath borne our disease, it must be God's will for all to be well.

(He healed them all that is the gospel)
INTRODUCTION
If it is not God's will for all to be healed,how did everyone in the multitude obtain from christ what it was not God's will for some of them to receive? The gospel says, he healed them all.
I. WITH HIS STRIP
If it is not God's will for all to be healed, why do the scriptures state:with his stripes we are healed Isaiah 53:5! and by whose stripes ye were healed 1Peter 2:24? How could "we" and "ye " be declared healed,if it is God's will for some of us to be sick?

If sickness is the will of God, then every physician would be a law-breaker,every trained nurse a defier of the Almighty and every hospital a house of rebellion instead of a house of mercy.
II . HE HEALED THEM ALL
Since christ came to do the father's will, the fact that he healed them all is a proof that it is God's will that all be healed

FACTS - 16
SATAN & SICKNESS
INTRODUCTION
By the word of God I have come to understand that satan was the author of sickness, diseases, and pain,and that God was the author of life and health.When you come to this knowledge you have to resist sickness as you resist satan. You hate sickness and diseases as you hate satan and his power and certainly want no more of his works in your body. Anything bad is bad and anything from satan is a destroyer. Job 2:4 And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life. 2:5 But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face. 2:6 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life. 2:7 So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
I. YOU ARE A MASTER-
Every Christian can become a devil master overnight by receiving a clear understanding of the work of demons, and of their legal defeat at Calvary.
Luke 10:17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
II. DEMONIC SPIRIT
No Xray machine can detect demons. But they are real. Demonic spirits are responsible for all forms of sickness as far as sin is in the world. May you have a clear understanding of the work of demonic spirits today, and be able to resist them, to discern them,and cast them out in Jesus wonderful name.
Jesus rebuked fever as person then HEALING came.
Luke 4:39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-15
INTRODUCTION
Jesus said in mark 7:13,that certain teachers make the word of God of none effect through their traditions. Man's ideas and theories have for centuries hindered the healing part of the Gospel from being proclaimed and acted upon as it was by the early church.
I. ONE TRADITION
One tradition is that God wills some of his children to suffer sickness, and that therefore many who are prayed for are not healed because it is not his will to heal them.
II .HEALING IS GOD'S WILL
When Jesus healed the demon-possessed boy in mark 9,whom the disciples could not heal ,he proved that it is God's will to heal even those who fail to receive healing;further more,he assign the failure of the disciples to cure the boy not to God's will, but to the disciples unbelieve Mathew 17:19-20.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-14

I. HIS WORKS THROUGH BELIEVERS
Jesus said that he would continue his same works through believers while he is with the father: verily, verily, I say unto you,he that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he so also;and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my father John 14:11.This certainly includes healing the sick.
II. THE LORDS SUPPER
In connection with the lords supper, the cup is taken" in remembrance of his blood which was shed for the remission of our sins 1corth 11:25;the bread is eaten in remembrance of his body on which were laid our diseases and the stripes by which we are healed. 1corth 11:23-24; Isaiah 53:5

I. PRAY AND RECEIVE
In John 14:13-14,the right to pray and receive the answer is given to every believer: if ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.This logically includes asking for healing, if we are sick.
II.JESUS HEALING GIFTS
The ministry of healing was given to the seventy, who represent the future workers of the church. In Luke 10:1,9,19. In mark 16:17,it was given to all them that believe the gospel; i.e, them that act on the Gospel, or, the practicers or doers of the word. In James 5:14, it is committed to the elders of the church. In 1corth 12:9-10,It is bestowed upon the whole church as one of its ministries and gifts, until Jesus comes.

II. AUTHORITY OVER ALL
All authority and power overall devils and diseases has been given to every disciples of christ. Since Jesus said, if he continue in my word,then are ye my disciples indeed John 8:31,therefore these scriptures apply to you today, that is if you continue in (act on)his word.

I.THE THIEF COME TO STEAL
Jesus said in John 10:10,the thief speaking of satan cometh not,but for to steal,and to kill,and to destroy: I am come that they might have life,and that they might have it more abundantly.
II. JESUS CAME TO SAVE LIVES
Jesus said in Luke 9:56, the son of man is not come to destroy mens lives, but to save them. Sickness destroys, therefore it is not from God.Christ came to save us, meaning to deliver us,to save and preserve us, to heal us, to give us life, to make us whole, but never to destroy us.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-10
INTRODUCTION
We are told that the son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1John 3:8. Sickness is part of satan's works. Christ, in his early ministry, always treated sin,diseases and devils the same;they were all hateful in his sight;he rebuked them all;he was manifested to destroy them all.
I. SICKNESS THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL
Jesus does not want the works of the devil to continue in our physical bodies today which he came, and was manifested, to destroy. He does not want a cancer, a plaque, a curse,the works of the devil,to exist in his own members. Know ye not that your bodies are the members of christ 1forth.6:15

FACTS-9
INTRODUCTION
In Job 2:7,sickness is revealed as coming directly from from satan: "Satan went forth and smite job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown ".Job maintained steadfast faith as he cried out to God for deliverance, and he was healed.seeJob 42:10,12

FACTS -8
INTRODUCTION
In Isaiah 53, the removal of our diseases is included in christ's atonement, along with the removal of our sins.The word "bare" implies substitution suffering for,not sympathy suffering with. If christ has borne our sickness, why should we bear them?In Mathew 8:16-17,christ fulfilled Isaiah's word, healing all that were sick.
I. THOSE WHO DO NOT SEEK THE LORD
Asa died in his sickness, because he sought not to the lord,but to the physicians 2 chronicles 16

Hezekiah lived, because he sought not to the physicians, but to the lord. Isaiah 38
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-7
INTRODUCTION
In psalm 91,God promises protection for our bodies as well as for our souls, if we abide in him.In the New Testament John wishes above all things that thou may prosper and be in health,even as thy soul prospereth 3John 2.Both scriptures show that God's will is that we be as healthy in our bodies as we are in our souls. It is never God's will for our souls to be sick;it is never God's will for our bodies to be sick.
I.TYPE OF CALVARY CURSES WAS REMOVED
Since their curse was removed by the lifting up of the brazen serpent of the type of Calvary, our curse was certainly removed by Calvary itself. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: Gal 3:13
II. TYP OF CALVARY RECIEVED BLESSING
The type of Calvary could not mean more to those Israelites then,than Calvary means to us today . Surely they could not receive blessings through only a type of Calvary itself. Galatians 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

They did not need to beg,nor make an offering to God then.There was only one condition, when he looketh. We do not need to beg nor make an offering to christ today. There is only one condition "whosoever believeth".
II. LOOK TO THE REMEDY
They were not told to look to moses,but rather to the remedy then; we are not told to look to the preacher, but to christ, today.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-5
INTRODUCTION
In God's provided remedy in the wilderness the brazen serpent lifted up which became their remedy . Therefore in their remedy they received both the forgiveness for their sins,and healing for their bodies;in christ, we receive both forgiveness for our sins, and healing for our sick bodies today.
I. THE REMEDY WAS FOR EVERYONE -
There were no exceptions then ,their remedy was for everyone that is bitten by the serpents;there are no exceptions today. Our remedy is for "whosoever believeth".
Exodus 23:25 And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.
II. EVERYONE MUST LOOK FOR HIS OWN REMEDY
Everyone was commanded to do his own looking at the remedy then; everyone is commanded to do his own believing on christ today.
Exodus 15:26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.
DIVNE HEALING
FACTS-4
INTRODUCTION
Sometimes we wait for a special revelation of the will of God concerning our case to be healed, and in the mean time we are doing all within the power of human skill to get well,with the use of natural means, whether it is God's will for them to be healed or not.
1. NATURAL MEANS OR DIVINE MEANS
If it is not God's will for us to be well,it would be wrong for us to seek recovery even through NATURAL means. If it is God's will for us to be well,then it is only logical that the best way of recovery is by DIVINE means.
II. GOD'S OWN REMEDY
The people cried to God after the serpent bite in the wilderness of sin and he heard them and provided a remedy. The lifted up brazen serpent. Those who cry to God today discover that God has heard their cry and has provided them a remedy; christ lifted up.
III. WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH
The remedy was for everyone that is bitten then; the remedy is for "Whosoever believeth" today. In their remedy they received both the forgiveness for their sins,and healing for their bodies;in christ, we receive both forgiveness for our sins,and healing for our sick bodies today.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-3
INTRODUCTION
God need not give any special revelation of his will when he has plainly given his revealed will in his word I.e when he has definitely promised to do things. His promises to heal are as much a revelation of his will to heal as his promises to save reveal his will to save.
1. MAN SINNED AGAINST GOD
The people had sinned against God then;man has sinned against God. see Numbers 21:4-9
John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
2.THE SERPENT BITE
The poison serpent BITE resulted in death then; the wages of sin is death today. Ecclesiastes 10:8 He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
DIVINE HEALING
FACTS-2
INTRODUCTION
The Bible reveals the will of God in regards to the healing of the body as clearly as it reveals the will of God in regard to the saving of the soul.
1. HEALING OUT OF EGYPT
When God called His children out of Egypt, he made a covenant of healing with them (Exodus 15:26); 23:25. All through their history, we find them in sickness and in pestilence turning to God in repentance and confession and always, when their sins were forgiven, their sickness were healed.
2.GOD HEALS
In Number 21:8,God heals those who were bitten by fiery serpents, through a look at a brazen serpent on a pole, which was a type of Calvary (John 3:14-15).If "EVERYONE" who looked at the serpent was healed then, it is logical that "EVERYONE "who looks at Jesus can be healed today.
Jesus said: "As moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, EVEN SO for the same purpose must the son of man be lifted up John 3:14

FACTS -1
(God made all things good)
INTRODUCTION
Many believe that God sometimes heal the sick,but they have no personal knowledge of Jesus as the indwelling, ever-present Healer;they know nothing about the many facts which prove that physical health is part of every man's salvation.
1.SICKNESS IS NO MORE NATURAL THAN SIN.
God made all things very good (Gen 1:31).Therefore we should not look for the remedy of sinner sickness in the natural, but from God who created us happy, strong, healthy and in fellowship with himself.
2. ORIGIN OF SIN SICKNESS
Both sin and sickness came into the world through the fall. Therefore, we must look for the healing of both in the Saviour.
Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
HE HEAL THEM ALL
INTRODUCTION
No person ever appealed in vain to christ for help in bodily suffering but as multitude after multitude pressed upon him for physical healing, the record is always the same:"He heal them all" luke4:40; 6:19;Matthew 4:23; 8:16;12:15;35;14:14etc).He laid his hands on every one of them healed them. (Luke 4:40).He came to do his father's will, therefore he preached the gospel and healed all that were sick.He went about ...healing all that were oppressed of the devil (Act10:38).
THE ATONEMENT THE REASON
His reason for healing them all is the ATONEMENT. Himself took our INFIRMITIES, and bare our sickness (Mathew 8:17).
If it was our sickness he bare,nothing short of healing them all would fulfill it. What Jesus did when he healed the woman with the issue of blood, was for one woman ,but what he did in his death was for everybody. Since the ATONEMENT was God's reason for christ's healing them all,he must continue to heal all,who meet the conditions, because what the atonement did for those who lived in that day, it did for us in our day, He tasted death for every man.His purpose in commanding this to be preached to every creature( mark 16:15-18) is that every creature may receive its benefits
JESUS OUR HEALER
INTRODUCTION
We now have no more faith in the right of sickness to dominate over or dwell in our physical being,than we have in the right of sin to dominate over or dwell in our spiritual being.
LAY CLAIM THE PROVISIONS BY FAITH
Lay claim to both of these marvellous provisions by faith. Accept them as yours. Accept Jesus as your Healer just as you accept him as your saviour, and you will be free from sickness as you are from sin
I NEED NOT BEAR SICKNESS AGAIN
INTRODUCTION
Sin and sickness need be born once. And since it is written that Jesus christ has already borne them, then you need not bear them. If you bear them, then Jesus bearing of them was entirely IN VAIN, seeing that you have not been benefited.
Hebrews 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
JESUS BORE THEM ONCE
But I declare, that since Jesus bore them, you and I need never bear them and so by his stripes we are healed and through his blood we have remission of sins
CHRIST THE SUBSTITUTE
INTRODUCTION
Sickness will lose its power over your body just as sin loses its power over your soul. You will be as free from sickness as you are from sin.
THE SUBSTITUTE
Christ, your substitute, bore both for you, so you do not have to bear them. By believing this portion of the word and acting accordingly, you are free yes, free from sickness as you are from sin.
THE TORN BODY OF THE LAMB
INTRODUCTION
To me the benefits of healing in the torn body of the lamb are just as plainly taught throughout the scriptures as the benefits of salvation in the shed blood of our lamb are taught
THE BODY & BLOOD
Discerning the body as having been beaten and torn with stripes, by which stripes your sickness was borne and you were healed, and health will be yours;just as certainly as when you discern the blood as having been shed for you, in which sacrifice your sins were borne, salvation is yours.
THIS BREAD
INTRODUCTION
When Jesus said:This bread which is broken for you represents my body, He expected us to understand that it was on his body that the cruel stripes by which we were healed were laid.
DISCERNING HIS BODY
Discerning his body properly will bring deliverance from our diseases, as discerning his shed blood will remove from us our sins.
THE LORDS SUPPER
Some take the lord's supper unworthily and are, therefore, unable to discern or appropriate with faith the lord's body for healing, even after they have had the teaching.if a man in need of healing will first examine himself and get in tune with God, so that he can eat the bread and drink the cup worthily, as Paul instructed, he will then be in a position to discern the lord's body with faith for healing.
