You Can Be Healed


For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD. Jer 30:17

 

This verse is short and simple and can be taken literally. As Jesus walked upon the earth doing God's will - he healed many people. "He sent forth his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.  Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men" Psalm 107:19-21. God sent Jesus in to the world to save us, to heal our every hurt. Not just physical pain, but emotional, mentally and spiritual healing. "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds" Psalm 147: 3. The Lord God who made you, can heal you and cleanse you of all sickness and disease. Jesus' stories of healing people in the Bible are not mythical, magical stories from the past, this is a truth that you can take hold of today. "For I am the Lord, I change not" Mal 3:6. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever". Hebrews 13:18. I think everyone at some point asks the question, "Can God really heal me?". Even small things - if you have a headache in the morning, is your first response to ask God to remove the headache or show you what is causing the headache, or do you automatically reach for a aspirin. Sometimes Christians are not sure about the question on medicine or seeing a doctor. For example, one might think, if I am asking God to heal me should I show my faith by not taking my medicine and wait for God to heal me? God wants to heal you, He wants to bind up your wounds and release you from the bondage of sickness. God gives doctors and scientist the knowledge and wisdom to produce medicine, procedures and treatments that help us heal, be strengthened and cured. I think God treats each of us individually and lovingly, every case is different, ask Him to establish your steps and help you. If you pray and seek God for answers for a on-going problem you have, there is no doubt He will guide you to truth and put people in your life that can help you."If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you" James 1:5. Inquire of God, hold fast to His truths and believe that He can do miracles in your body and mind just as He has done before and is doing today. "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness." Isaiah 41:10 And in the end, let God's will be done, we can not question His ways but I do know He is in charge and will comfort you and love you no matter what the circumstances are. I pray blessings, peace and good health to you in the Name of Jesus. Amen. Don't stop believing.



Also here are some great books I read on healing:

 - Christ the Healer by F.F. Bosworth

Bright New Skies


What a beautiful day. The sun graced the sky this morning with hues of pink and lavender, the waves rolled with morning vigor, the trees swayed in the lazy sea breeze and I celebrate my 26th birthday today!! I've been in valleys and I have been on top of some mountains and I thank God for every trail and trouble for they made me stronger. I have suffered pain, but every morning brought joy and gladness to see another day. To know that whatever happened the day before - was in the past and it is my gift (and yours) to start over on a new day. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. James 1:17 I thank God for every blessing in my life, my family, my friends, my readers, my job, my home, my writing and my health. Everything good in my life comes from Him and I am so blessed. Show Your marvelous loving-kindness, O You Who save by Your right hand those who trust and take refuge in You from those who rise up against them. Psalm 17:7 Maybe not with riches and material things (they're coming soon though! lol), but with a love so strong it has helped me to move past sorrows and scares. .I am in a place of freedom now because He has taught me how to forgive and how to love, which was something I could not do on my own. So on this bright morning give thanks for all that you have and all that God has in store for you. In our broken world with wars and countless victims, children fighting for their lives and hate, let us learn to love each other and fight for the greater good, to give of ourselves as we can and to stand up for peace and love. Surround yourself with like-minded people who encourage you and inspire you, respect those you work for and if you are in a valley right now -stay in His Word and be encouraged, He has never lost sight of you and is working in the background. Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. Psalm 89:33

 I pray His blessings, peace and love be on you and yours, now and forever.
