Question

What can a born-again person do about a sickness that Satan has put on him?

Answer

Well, anything that Satan’s put upon you in the way of sickness, or whatever it is, you, every borned again person, has an abstract warrant—has a warrant from God.

Question

Why did the woman who touched the hem of Jesus garment feel virtue when the soldier who struck Him did not?

Answer

When you come be-…friend, let me say this to you: it’s your mental attitude, the way you approach anything. The woman that touched the hem of the Master, she felt virtue. But the soldier who put a rag around His head, and hit Him on the head, said, “If you’re a prophet, tell me who hit you, and I’ll...

Question

If Jesus healed people when He died nineteen hundred years ago, what is left for a sick person to do now?

Answer

And if you believe what I’m telling you to be the truth, and God is confirming it to be the truth, both scientifically and spiritually, believe this, that I’m telling you the truth: that Jesus healed every one of you nineteen hundred years ago when He died for you; and the only thing you have to do...

Question

Can a sickness come back on someone after they have been healed?

Answer

Now, the thing it is, is a…is to get the difference between what is the Spirit of God, and what is the spirit of the devil. And then by the atonement in Calvary, that devil is cast out. And I’ll assure you, if the believer will come and believe, right here presently no matter what’s wrong with it, i...

Question

Can a person lose their healing?

Answer

In plain words where the simplest child would understand, and the only way I know to put it, it’ll rot. And it’s laying right in there rottening in your body. And when it does, your heart stream, your bloodstream is being purified by your heart, and it picks up that and causes sickness and headaches...

Question

Should someone who does not believe with all their heart come into the prayer line?

Answer

Because the Bible said, “Go ye and sin no more, or a worse thing come upon you.” And what is sin? Unbelief. When God has made Hisself manifested to you, like that. And you go away, “Well, I don’t know. He might’ve guessed that. It might…” Brother, it’s not guessing. See? No. And you go away like tha...

Question

Should someone who came to be healed rejoice even if God says nothing to them?

Answer

And that’s the way God wants you to say, “Why, thank You, Father. I come up here to be healed, and it’s all explained to me. And You’ve proven it to me now. So I’m ready to go away from here rejoicing. Praise the Lord.” And go away just rejoicing and made well. That’s the way to do it. No matter if...

Question

Did every healing in Jesus' ministry come through a vision?

Answer

Now, there’s many people healed. Some blind men one time, run after Him through the street. And they come into the house, and He didn’t pay any attention to them. Then He touched their eyes saying, “According to (What?) your faith, be it unto you,” no vision. A woman touched the hem of His garment;...

Question

Whose faith counts when a baby is too young to have faith of its own?

Answer

Believe that, well you watch the baby and see if it’s not right. “In My Name they shall cast out devils.” That baby’s too little to have faith. It has to have our faith. And I know with love to God, then in love, and faith accompanies love, and when those two meet together, something has to happen....

Question

Can someone lose their healing?

Answer

Well, that’s the same thing takes place when a—a demon is cast out of a sick person. The first few days, “Oh, I feel wonderful.” Then begin to say, “I’m—I’m sicker than I—than I ever was. I’ve lost my healing.” Just as sure as faith took it out, unbelief brings it right back again. As faith kills it...

Question

What brings about healing when a sick person is prayed for?

Answer

Friends, I had nothing to do with the healing of that girl. I only told her what He told me. I had nothing to do with the healing of anyone. It’s your faith in God that does the healing, like your faith in God does the salvation. Jesus, when He died at Calvary, He, there on Calvary He purchased your...

Question

What does faith do when the symptoms and the doctors say a person is dying?

Answer

Now, see, faith doesn’t look at any—at any symptoms. Faith doesn’t see nothing but victory. Faith has already appropriated it, and there’s nothing else to be done. No matter, if you were laying dying, and a half a dozen doctors was stand around saying, “Their blood pressure is dropping. Their heart’...

Question

Why might someone never get well no matter how many times they are prayed for?

Answer

Now, any of those things, if you’re weary, upset, fretting, nervous, sick, sin, whatever it is, when you accept that from your heart, go to confessing it, and then saying it’s right, God’s right there to make it right, when you go to confessing it. But if you’re afraid to say so, and afraid to act u...

Question

What if the man who asked Jesus to heal his son had not believed the word 'Thy son liveth'?

Answer

Now, the man…I want you to notice something, get this point in mind. The man wanted Jesus to come down to his home and heal his son. But Jesus did not grant his request in the way that he wanted it. Sometimes He doesn’t do it for us that way. You might say, “If I can get in the prayer line…If God wi...

Question

What healed the sick people that Peter's shadow passed over?

Answer

Oh, brother, what’s in your hand? Why, it’s got right in you. It’s in your heart, It’s all over you, the Holy Ghost. Do something about it. Throw it out there and trust God. Say, “Certainly, God promised it to me, and I believe it.” Oh, what this world needs today…On the day of Pentecost, when they...

Question

What should someone do who can accept their healing only mentally?

Answer

Now, healing is not something that you just say, “Well, I…yeah, I believe it. I believe it.” Now, that’s all right. If that’s the best you can do, just mentally, or just say, “Well, I…Yes, I—I see it. I believe that; I accept it.” Then if you accept it on those basis, keep saying it over and over. S...

Question

Does healing depend on excitement or emotion?

Answer

You think that I’m just asking His blessings for the people. They been healed. See? You might not see. Healing doesn’t consist of excitement; healing consists of power. See? I’ve seen many who…It’s not—it’s not emotion: healing. You just stomp, and scream, and cry at the demons; they won’t move. But...

Question

Who is divine healing for?

Answer

Divine healing today is not for the unbeliever, it’s for those who believe. The baptism of the Holy Spirit today is not for unbelievers, it’s for those who believe. Jesus died for believers, not for unbelievers, it’s for those who believe. The supernatural follows who is supernatural minded. That’s...

Question

What should a believer do when people say divine healing is not right?

Answer

“Whatsoever things you desire, when you pray, believe you receive it, you shall have it.” Do you believe that? Then take, no matter what person says, “Divine healing’s not right,” what person says, “this is not right,” take God at His Word. He said, “Let every man’s word be a lie and Mine be true.”...

Question

What keeps a person from being healed?

Answer

There’s only one thing that keeps you from being healed, if I read the Bible right (I believe I have millions that’ll agree with me on the Scripture.), that the only thing that keeps us from being healed is a lack of faith, that is, if our heart’s right with God. Is that right? If…He was wounded for...
