do you want to be made well?
Besides assenting to the physical changes I needed to make to implement my personal healing strategy, there is the mental aspect of being made well. We have to discipline our hearts and minds to actually believe the words of Jesus:
But Jesus turned around, and when He saw her He said, “Be of good cheer, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour. Mat 9:22
Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you.” Mat 9:29
Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour. Mat 15:28
Then Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road. Mar 10:52
And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.” Luk 17:19
His words, not mine, were that it is our faith that has made us well. Saying, “I will be healed if it is God’s will” is a cop-out, pure and simple. God has already stated His will concerning our healing, over and over and over again in the Scriptures:
Or, to say the same thing another way, it is God’s will to heal me.
But it can be more convenient for us to blame God for our continued illness, than to take the responsibility Scripture places on us for our own mental and physical discipline, in combating a persistent state of unbelief.
So what if our faith is lacking? It only takes a mustard seed amount to believe and receive miracles (Mat 17:20). I knew of a lady in our home church in Colorado who had been diagnosed with breast cancer. She was young too, much younger than me. When she was three weeks away from her next scan, and scheduling the surgery which was to follow the scan, she decided that she wanted to be made well. She juice-fasted and prayed for three weeks, seeking God’s face to miraculously heal her. She went in for the scan and the cancer was gone. Now whether God healed her miraculously, or whether the juice fast reversed her cancer growth and empowered her immune system to clean up the mess, it doesn’t matter. If her faith was lacking at the beginning, it wasn’t at the end.
Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Rom 10:17
Feed your heart and mind on the word of God, and your faith will grow. That is a promise! Don’t just limit yourself to God will heal me Scriptures, although that’s a great start. How about, God’s word applies to me, God’s word is unfailing, God is trustworthy, God is a faithful promise-keeper, and any other Scriptures the Holy Spirit of truth brings before your eyes.
Ask God for help and for growth of faith, for supplying whatever He sees is lacking. God will walk you through this process, once you answer Yeshua’s question: “Yes, I do want to be made well.”
