He Died for Our Healing

We are in a Holy Week, honoring the last week of our Lord and Saviors Jesus Christ life before being crucified on the cross. Before Christ was sent to the cross and crucified He was beaten with fists and whipped. He took all of this upon Himself for all of the sins of all people who believe Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior. The whips used were made of braided leather, with pottery shards and sharp stones affixed to the ends, which tore open, the flesh of the prisoner with each cruel swing of the whip. When we picture this terrible, inhumane form of physical punishment we recoil in horror. Yet the physical pain and agony were not all Jesus suffered. He also had to undergo the mental anguish brought on by the wrath of his Father, who punished Him for the sinfulness of mankind, carried out in spite of God’s repeated warnings, which Jesus had willingly taken upon Himself. He paid the total price for all of our transgressions. Isaiah 53:5 says, 

But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed.

The word “healed” as translated from both Hebrew and Greek can mean either spiritual or physical healing. What our Father  did for us in deliverance from sin, He has also done for us in physical healing and we are to believe and receive just as much for that wholeness (healing) in Him, in each of our lives. Healing in the case of a Believer is a direct and sovereign act of God's gracious power, as all God's blessings to man, are independent and subject to an all-wise Heavenly Father.  So when we ask for healing, we need to submit to God's sovereign will. He may have a purpose in allowing our illness, as not all sicknesses come from Satan, nor are they all contrary to the will of God. I reason that some sickness is the result of another problem, and the Lord will often reveal the root cause of the problem and we are to pray for that root.  Romans 8:26 confirms this, it says,

 "And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words,"

An example of a root, it has been said that diabetes, many times can be cause or activated by emotional shock, such as sudden death in the family, injury, financial loss, anything that seriously affects us emotionally. Disease and death will be a part of the human condition until that time when we receive resurrection bodies that are immune to such frailties. But God has left us His Word as provision to our problems and sickness regardless of the root and we must put His Word into action with prayer. I know personally the power praying God Word and his healing. He has healed my body and restored me from sickness and disease. But it was a process of prayer, supplication and speaking the Word over my body. Once I discovered the root cause of the symptom, I knew the actions to take and the specific Word to pray over my body and spirit. The Holy Spirit reveals to us the very Word we decide to pray, which will give us Victory in Jesus and we must decree the Word as it applies to the sickness, physical or spiritual, through prayer…because by "His stripes we are healed".

Enter into the Sanctuary to pray for healing.

Our Lord Jesus, I come to You now according to Your Word and Father and I know that Your Word is true. Lord, Your Word says that if I abide in You and Your Words abide in me I will ask You what I  desire and it shall be done for me and by this my Father is glorified that I will bear much fruit. 

Heavenly Father  I come to you according to 1 John 1:9. You said, “If we confess our sins to You, You are faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (every wrongdoing).” Heavenly Father, I repent and ask that You would forgive me of my sins, my iniquities, trespasses and transgressions, in Christ Jesus’ Holy Name. I am forgiven and free from sin and guilt. I declare You have given me abundant life and  I receive that life through Your Word and it flows to every organ of my body bringing life, healing, and health according to Your Word.  I give no place to sickness or pain and it shall dominate my body. I  make a demand on my  body  to release the right chemicals and hormones. My  body is in perfect chemical balance. My pancreas secretes the proper amount of insulin for life and health. Heavenly Father, through Your Word You have imparted Your life to me . That life restores my body with every breath I breathe and every word I SPEAK. That which God has not planted is dissolved and rooted out of my body in Jesus’ Name. The Word of God is engrafted into every fiber of my  being and I am  alive with the life of God. Growths and tumors have no right in or on my body. They are a thing of the past, for I am  delivered from the authority of darkness. Every organ and tissue of my body function in the perfection that God created it to function. I pray Your miracle virtue into my body in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Your healing anointing is over me, from the top of my head to the soles of my feet. Right now Lord you are restoring every organ, every cell, every gland, every muscle, every ligament, every bone in my body and bring everything in total alignment, complete alignment, the way you created me, in the Name of Jesus Christ. 

Heavenly Father, I thank you that we have received from Jesus Christ the victory over all diseases, afflictions, infirmities, hinderances that the enemy is trying to send our way now or in the future. I thank you that Jesus Christ is victorious through the power of His might against all lesions of any kind, spasms of any kind, pains of any kind, trauma, shock, sicknesses, disorders, and diseases of any kind, afflictions of any kind, infirmities or inflammations of any kind, in any part of my body. I bind fear, doubt, unbelief in the Name of Jesus. I pray all these things according to Your Will. I thank You and decree that according to Isaiah 53:4-5 that by the stripes Jesus took on the cross that I am healed and made whole. In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I declare that I am healed and made whole according to Isaiah 53:4-5, by the stripes of Jesus Christ. Amen.
