God Heals the Believer

The Lord is our refuge and our strength. Through Him alone, we have healing. Through Him alone is our salvation. For by God’s grace, Jesus died for our sins so that we might live and believe He is his Son, and by believing, we have healing.

“While he was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy. And when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, ‘Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.’ And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, ‘I will; be clean.’ And immediately the leprosy left him.”

(Luke 5:12-13)

Jesus is willing to heal those who believe in Him. How great a power are our words that God would choose to heal us, if we truly believed God would heal us. No greater power is that of having faith in God.

If God could create the universe and everything in it, if He could move the mountains and say to them, “Here, and no further,” if He could separate the day from the night, if He knows every star by name, how much more is it for Him to strengthen our hearts and heal our wounds?

By God’s mercy and grace, we have salvation. By His Spirit, we have everlasting love. He heals us because it pleases Him, and it is His will. No illness is stronger that He cannot overcome. God heals the believer.

  1. With that being said yes God does heal a believer however he doesn’t heal everyone who physically needs healing. As a believer we may not understand the why just to know that God knows best even when we do not.

  2. I love when He does this, but I also want to be willing to endure whatever ailments He doesn’t heal while I’m in this earthly body. I know He has a purpose for when He doesn’t, whether its because of me or something else, I still want to trust Him about it. Not always easy. Jacob’s broken hip is a lesson for all of us. And so is Job, even though some of his ailments were definitely temporary.

    1. O, how wonderful it is to read of another’s faith in times of trial. May God’s blessing, grace, peace and hope be with you always, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

  3. Amen!! He healed my broken heart!! Nothing or no one can heal like the power of our God through Jesus Christ!!!
    🙌🙌🙌🙌
    Have ANOTHER blessed day in the Lord!!!
