:: ::

1. Healing is in God’s nature (Ex 15:26)

2. The Messiah was to be recognized by healing (Is 53:3-6, Is 61:1-2, Luke 4:18-19, Luke 7:20-23)

3. Every Christian has been commissioned to heal (Matt 10:8, Mark 6:7, 12-13, Matt 28:19-20)

4. Redemption is about healing the whole person (Ps 103:2-3)

5. The covenant includes healing (Ex 34:10, Heb 2:3-4)

6. The atonement provides (not guarantees) healing (Is 53:4-5, Matt 8:16-17, 1 Peter 2:24, Acts 4:10)

7. The kingdom of God is clearly associated with healing in Jesus’ ministry (Luke 10:9, Luke 17:21)

A few more points about healing ministry…

1. We aren’t the healers, Jesus is! Humbly direct praise for any good that happens to him (Acts 4:9-10)

2. The flow of healing power may increase or decrease in a time/place due to a number of factors (Luke 5:17, Acts 19:11-12, Mark 6:4-6)

3. Not everyone is immediately healed (2 Tim 4:20), so persevere!

4. The goal of the healing ministry is to exalt the name of Jesus (Acts 4:30)
