The Spirit of
the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the
poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the
captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are
bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. Luke Chapter 4 verses 18 to
19.
The Spirit of
the Lord GOD [is] upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good
tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to
proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to [them that
are] bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of
vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that
mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning,
the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called
trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. Isaiah
Chapter 61 verses 1 to 3.
Some
ailments are satanically inflicted to torment, humiliate and oppress people;
even animal, lands and natural resources in order to place limits on them. Please
see Acts Chapter 5 verse 16 where the Bible records that the people who were tormented
by unclean spirits received their healing. Please see also Matthew Chapter 9 verses
20 to 22, Luke Chapter 8 verses 43 to 48, Mark Chapter 5 verses 25 to 34, , 1
to 20; the woman with the issue of blood and the Gadarene demoniac, the
epileptic boy, Mark Chapter 9 verses 17 to 27, Luke Chapter 13 verses 11 to 16
and the woman who was bent over for eighteen years in Luke Chapter 13 verses 10
to 16. Some of the ways through which God heals include:
Through
His spoken word - The Bible records in Psalm 107 verse 20 that He sent His word
and healed their diseases. Please see also Exodus Chapter 15 verse 26, Isaiah
Chapters 53 verses 4 to 5; 54 verses 14 to 17, Acts Chapter 5 verse 16, Matthew
Chapter 8 verse 17 and 1st Peter Chapter 2 verse 24.
Through
divine instructions – King Hezekiah was instructed to apply poultice from fig
leaves to the boils on his body and he was healed. Please see Isaiah Chapter
38. Naaman was instructed to go dip in the Jordan seven times and when he
obeyed, he was healed. Please see 2nd Kings Chapter 5. The Lord
Jesus Christ instructed the ten lepers to go show themselves to the priest.
They obeyed and were healed.
Through
forgiveness of sins – the paralytic man was forgiven of sins and received
healing.
Through
food – Please see instances in 1st Timothy Chapter 5 verse 23 where
the Apostle Paul instructed Timothy to add a little wine to his food for the
frequent infirmities he suffered. Please see also 2nd Kings Chapter
2 verses 19 to 22 and Exodus Chapter 23 verses 25 to 26.
Through
herbs – the healing of the bitter waters of Marah with the specific tree which
God showed Moses. Please see Exodus Chapter 15 verses 23 to 25, Ezekiel Chapter
47 verses 7 to 12 and Revelation Chapter 22 verses 1 to 2.
Through
prayers offered for the sick by the saints of God. Please see James Chapter 5
verses 14 to 16.
Through
prophetic declarations to restore hope and life especially in cases of
hopelessness as demonstrated in the restoration of life and hope to the very
many dry bones in the valley of dry bones. Please see Ezekiel Chapter 37 verses
1 to 14.
Through
the use of natural resources such as water bodies, wind, trees, to transfer to
humans as well as the natural resources the healing unction of God. Please see
Ezekiel Chapter 47 verses 7 to 12; please note verses 8 to 11, 2nd
Kings Chapter 5, John Chapter 5 verses 3 to 4 and Revelation Chapter 22 verses
1 to 2. In such instances, the source of the water as well as other natural
resources in addition to what goes on is pivotal to the healing. The waters
here either proceeded from the throne of God or an angel of God was sent to
deposit God’s healing unction in the water for s specific period.
Through
His anointed servants – the Apostles as well as many Christians, historical and
contemporary have been used by God and are still being used by God to bring His
unction to people. Significantly, you can be used of God to bring healing, life
and joy to as many people that God wants you to touch. Are you prepared to be
that vessel of honor so that through you, God can bring healing to the people
and nations of the world? Take that quality decision right now and God bless
you as you do so in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
