No Scripture condemns the legitimate use of doctors or medical science, but one of the names of God is Jehovah-Raphameaning “the Lord who heals.” The Father has the power to heal the whole person. 1. Spiritually (Psalm 103:2-3; Jeremiah 3:22; 1 Peter 2:24; Isaiah 53:5) 2. Physically (2 Kings 5:10; Isaiah 38:15-16; Psalm 41:3; Psalm 107:19-20; Matth...
The Holy Spirit gives gifts to the Church (1 Corinthians 12:8-11), like the gift of healing (1 Corinthians 14:1). God knows best and He distributes the gift of healing according to His will (Hebrews 2:4). Besides honoring God and glorifying Jesus, healing is also for the common good of the Church (1 Corinthians 12:7). Healings are also a strong sig...
In the Old Testament, when Moses cried out to God to heal Miriam’s leprosy, the Lord did not heal her immediately (Numbers 12:1-15). Ahaziah was refused healing because he consulted with a pagan deity (2 Kings 1:1-17a). In the New Testament, Paul left Trophimus sick in Miletus (2 Timothy 4:20b), had to deal with his own continuing affliction (2 Cor...
Christians can hinder their own healing in at least five ways. 1. Christians may have unconfessed sin. James 5:16says, “Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed….” Confession is important preparation to healing. We must take care with this, however. Some believe all sick people are guilty of secret sins. Tha...
It’s important not to question people or beat them up over a perceived “lack of faith.” Only God knows the human heart, and He is the righteous Judge (Psalm 139:1-2; 50:6). But regarding healing, Christians might ask themselvessome questions: - Do I have courage to ask God for healing in faith? - Do I have the kind of pleasing faith that honors God...
Many Christians forget they can call on church elders to pray—a biblical truth not taught or practiced in many churches. In James 5:14-16, the elders of a church were called in to visit a sick person under their spiritual care. They anoint the sick person with oil and offer up prayer “in the name of the Lord.” If the person’s illness was the direct...
Sickness and death are consequences of the fall (Genesis 2:17; 3:19b; Romans 5:12). Satan is a murderer and liar (John 8:44) who wants to steal Christians’ health and tell them lies about God’s goodness. Some illnesses are directly caused by spiritual or demonic influences (Luke 13:10-13; Acts 10:38; 2 Corinthians 12:7; Mark 1:34). Christians who w...
God may use physical suffering for a higher purpose than we understand (Isaiah 55:8-9). God sometimes heals to bring glory to Himself and encourage others to put their faith in the Savior. We see this with the death of Lazarus and Jesus raising him back to life (John 11:1-45). Other times, healing does not come. But even with impending death, there...
For the believer, death brings ultimate healing—no more death, sorrow or pain forever (Revelation 21:4). To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:55-57). Believers can hate sickness and disease—just as God does—while longing for that day when they’ll be safe in heaven from the ravages of pain and all disease.
Below are several Bible verses about healing selected from references in this article. “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5). “The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psa...

When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was imploring Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death. So Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you simply will not believe.” The royal official *said to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” read more.
We can also gain a deeper understanding for how to succor others as Christ succors us. We can become more like the Savior. We need to reach out to Him as the chronically ailing woman did. Jesus can heal us too. As modern-day Apostles have testified, “He gave His life to atone for the sins of all mankind” (“The Living Christ,” Apr. 2000).

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is none who does good. The Lord looks down from heaven on the children of man, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.
