    Divine Healing

    Divine Healing has been a controversial issuefor many decades.

    I believe that the greatest controversies have

    arisen in the area of results. We must never betrapped in the arena of whether it was a lackof our faith, or a lack of faith on the part ofthe sick.

    How are we going to establish parameters forministering and praying for the sick?

    Lets establish the facts

    Isaiah 53. 4,5 Surely he hath borne our griefs,and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem himstricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he waswounded for our transgressions, he was bruisedfor our iniquities; and with his stripes we arehealed.

    1 Peter 2.24 Who his own self bare our sins in

    his own body on the tree, that we, being dead tosins, should live unto righteousness: by whosestripes ye were healed.

    Divine Healing & Health

    Healing is divine in the sense that God has tointervene in behalf of the finished work ofJesus Christ.

    The gospels are full of Jesus healing the sick. We are not going to get into demonology as it

    pertains to oppression, possession or the

    operation of Spiritual Gifts tonight. It is forcertain that both are products of Calvary andthe consequent resurrection and ascension.

    Jesus had compassion on them, and touched

    Romans 8 (cont) Because the creature itselfalso shall be delivered from the bondage ofcorruption into the glorious liberty of the
