James 5:16 "Confess your faults, one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much"
Yes - God heals. Aside from miracles, it is through various types of prayer and by His power
it is done. We must pursue fellowship with God for God to hear our prayers, then we may
pray for God to heal through various types of prayers.
Psalm 66:18
"If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me".
If there is any sin in your life, get rid of it, as any sin you know of or any unknown sin will hinder your fellowship with the Father.
If we think we have no sin
(1st John 1:8-10)
, then we need to realize that ALL have sinned and come short of the Glory of God
(Rom 3:23)
, and then study the Scriptures to find the sins we committed,
which are the Laws that we broke, so that we may confess them. The Law is a mirror to show us our sinful condition.
God wants us to ADMIT we sinned against Him, AND confess our sins directly to Him, and then God will forgive them.
Prayer for healing also involves confessing our sins directly to our heavenly Father in Jesus name, so fellowship can be restored between us.
Then God will allow us to rightfully ask for our healing, through prayer, and then ALLOW us to pursue healing through physical fleshly means. He will then PERMIT it,
as this is the permissible will of God. Then the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, can lead us with thoughts and ideas, which were previously "blocked" methods of healing,
as when we were out of fellowship with God our hearts (understanding) were blinded to these truths.
God can also help us find physical healing by arranging us meeting someone that God
placed in our path for help. Healing our hearts, emotional healing, can be done in an instant by the power of the will in choosing to forgive every person that has hurt you. Un-forgiveness is a heavy load to bear, and
un-forgiveness and bitterness manifest in the flesh; as what we sow, so shall we reap.
Jesus told us to love one another and so we should pray for one another.
When we tell a Brother or Sister in the Lord exactly what our problems are, then our Brothers and Sisters can pray to deliver us from them, and also to pray for healing.
Healing also often occurs through Deliverance, the casting out of
devils in Jesus name, so watch the group deliverance video below:
