Does God heal today? Jesus healed by the power of the Holy Spirit when he was upon this earth; he healed: “all that were oppressed of the devil” (Acts 10:38; KJV). The Bible tells us that Jesus never changes (Heb 13:8). Jesus came that we might have abundant life, not sickness and premature death (John 10:10). God said: “I am the Lord that healeth thee” (Ex 15:26).

In both the Old (Isa 53:5) and New Testaments, it is made clear that Christ took stripes on his body, his body was broken, that we could be whole and be healed. “Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed (1 Peter 2:24).  

We can receive God’s promise of healing by praying in faith (Mark 11:24). We develop the faith God gave us by spending time in his word: “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Rom 10:17).

Let’s do it. Let’s be like the Psalmist and meditate God’s word day and night (Ps 1:2), until, like Abraham, we are fully convinced that God is able to do what he promised (Rom 4:21).
