His Heart, My Home

Beloved Friends,

We began our series of posts on divine healing on July 26 with the absolute assurance that God’s Word will NOT return to Him void, without result, without accomplishing what He desires, nor without succeeding in the matter for which He sent it. (Isaiah 55:11)

That’s because God’s Word is alive and full of power. It is active, operative, energizing, and effective. It will bring healing to anyone who believes it and receives it. (Hebrews 4:12)

The key to the Word’s healing power is to use it diligently just like you would a medication that had been prescribed by your doctor. Please read or reread “God’s Medicine” posted on 9/18/24 to refresh this truth in your mind and spirit.

Then, use the scriptures and prayer/confessions found in the four “God’s Rx for Health” posts as your supernatural medicine.

Read the Word. Meditate on the Word. Speak the Word only, day after day, after day!

Refuse to doubt! Refuse to give up! Healing is yours!

Father, Grace and I pray that your unconditional love and unfailing mercy would bring healing to all those who have come to this site. Stretch forth your hand to the sick, the hurting, and the weary. Heal them. Restore them. Strengthen them. Fill their hearts with a fresh revelation of your love. Make their lives a testimony of your goodness and your grace. Be glorified in and through them.

In the wonderful name of Jesus, our Healer, we pray, Amen!

Romans 8:11 (NKJV)
But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Prayer/Confession: God’s Spirit, the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead, lives in me and releases God’s life and healing energy within my body. The life of God in me drives out every trace of sickness and disease. The Spirit of God within me continuously releases His life into my physical body. I am healed and made completely whole!

James 5:14-16 (Amplified Classic)
¹⁴ Is anyone among you sick? He should call in the church elders. And they should pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.¹⁵ And the prayer of faith will save him who is sick, and the Lord will restore him; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. ¹⁶ Confess to one another therefore, your faults, (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray (also) for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].

Verse 16 (The Message) And if you’ve sinned, you’ll be forgiven – healed inside and out.

NOTE: Hiding sin gives it power over us. When we confess it, the power of sin over us is broken, so that we can be healed: not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well.

Prayer/Confession: Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. God’s Word has created faith in my heart. I release that powerful faith by speaking the Word. A Word filled-prayer is a faith-filled prayer. The prayer of faith makes me whole. The prayer of faith makes tremendous power available to drive all sickness, pain, and disease from my body. The prayer of faith is dynamic, operative, effective, and continual in its working. I believe I receive! The Lord heals me and raises me up!

1 John 5:14-15 (NKJV)
¹⁴ Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. ¹⁵ And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.

NOTE: We cannot pray a prayer of faith unless we know the will of God. The most common question regarding this verse is, “How do we know what God’s will is, so that we can pray according to His will?” God’s will is found in His Word! Are we praying for healing? That’s His will because the Word tells us over and over again in scripture after scripture that it is God’s will to heal us.

Prayer/Confession: Father, I have boldness and unshakable confidence that when I ask anything in agreement with your will, you hear me. And since I know with absolute certainty that you hear me, I also know that I have, as my present possession, the request I have made of you. I am healed!

Mark 16:17-18 (NKJV)
¹⁷ And these signs will follow those who believe: 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.

Prayer/Confession: Father, I receive your healing power, and I thank you that I am made whole. Now I am equipped and strengthened to go forth as a kingdom ambassador to bring the gospel to the world around me. When I lay my hands on the sick they do recover, in Jesus’ name. Thank you Holy Spirit for working with me, confirming the Word with signs and wonders.

*************************************************

Luke 10:19 (Passion Translation)
Now you understand that I have imparted to you my authority to trample over satan’s kingdom. You will trample over every demon before you and overcome every power satan possesses.

Prayer/Confession: Jesus, you have imparted your authority and your power to me to crush and destroy the works of the devil. I trample upon the serpents and scorpions of sickness and disease. I command any demonic spirit causing sickness to leave my body, in Jesus’ name! The power of Holy Spirit in me is greater than every power satan possesses. I am more than a conqueror in Christ! Thank God, I am healed!

*************************************************

Mark 9:23 (NKJV)
Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

Prayer/Confession: Lord, I trust in you with all my heart, completely, and absolutely! You are a miracle-working Savior. All things are possible to you, and all things are possible to me, as I put my faith in you. There are no “ifs”, “buts”, or “maybes” to me. You said it. I believe it. You said it. It is done. By your stripes, I am healed, and made perfectly whole! You made the impossible possible! You made a way where there was no way!

Mark 11:22-24 (Amplified Bible)
²² Jesus replied, “Have faith in God [constantly]. ²³ I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea!’ and [f]does not doubt in his heart [in God’s unlimited power], but believes that what he says is going to take place, it will be done for him [in accordance with God’s will]. ²⁴For this reason I am telling you, whatever things you ask for in prayer [in accordance with God’s will], believe [with confident trust] that you have received them, and they will be given to you.

NOTE: When we pray, we are to believe that we receive. If we have received something by faith, even if it is not yet in our hands, we don’t keep asking for it. The answer has already been given, and we have already received it. When we believe that we receive, then we will have it!

Prayer/Confession: I choose to operate in the “God-kind-of-faith”. I know the Word of God is operative, energizing, and effective when it is released from a faith-filled heart with faith-filled words. I speak to the problems and negative circumstances in my life, and they obey me. Sickness and disease have to obey, in the name of Jesus. The mountains of sin, shame, and sickness are removed and cast into the sea. I believe that those things I ask for in prayer in accordance with God’s will are my current present possessions. I receive my healing right now by faith, in Jesus’ name! I thank you, Lord, and I give you all the glory for it!
