Question

Can someone who has been healed lose their healing?

Answer

They last as long as faith lasts. But when faith fails, then your healing will fail. Would you say every person came to the altar and got converted would be a Christian all their days? He could be tonight a child of God, and tomorrow be a child of the devil. It’s when he loses faith in God, what sen...

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

Why does a person feel good for a few days after being prayed for and then get real sick?

Answer

Now, believers, here’s what’s the matter with you. You’re afraid to take the initiative. You’re afraid to stand and claim your God given privilege. See? And the devil actually leaves, and when he goes out, then you feel better for a few days, and then after while, you say, “I’m getting sick.” About...

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

Why would a person feel sicker after being prayed for a growth?

Answer

And if you don’t know those things you’ll sure can’t…You don’t understand Divine healing, well you—there’s no need of trying it, because it’s just a try anyhow. See? If you’re trying it like that… But if you know what’s going to happen, then your faith is centered. Then you’ve got to sick before you...

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 should a person do when they still have symptoms after being prayed for?

Answer

Everybody is always looking at their symptoms. The pastor will pray for them; they go over and say, “Well, I don’t seem to be any better.” Well, that’s not healing. Symptoms is the worst thing that’s…That’s one of the greatest scarecrows the devil’s got. Symptoms don’t have nothing to do with it, it...

Question

What should a person do about the symptoms of a sickness?

Answer

Symptoms is something like, say tomorrow, when you go home now, to your place, the express agent will come up and say, “Are you Mrs. Doe?” “Yes.” “I have a present for you.” “All right. What is it?” He hands over a—a basket, or box, and you hear something hitting in that box. You look in it. It’s a...

Question

What should a person do when symptoms come back after they have been prayed for?

Answer

Now, God help us tonight to believe. Help us to lay aside every shadowy weight, and just move right in now with perfect virgin, unadulterated faith, Lord, and be healed, every one. For we ask it in His Name. Amen. [Blank spot on tape—Ed.] Symptoms arise, see it’s all by feeling then. Next morning wh...

Question

Does feeling sick again about seventy-two hours after prayer mean the healing was lost?

Answer

Now, nine times out of ten, if the patient isn’t instructed on what to do, right there they lose out. See? They say, “Well, I feel so good. I just feel so wonderful.” And then about—after about seventy-two hours, they get a sick spell. They start getting sick. They say, “Oh, I’ve lost my healing. Oh...

Question

How should a person respond when Satan says they are not healed?

Answer

The faith that taken away unbelief, will resurrect it again. When you take your stand for Jesus Christ, stay there and die by it. What God says is the truth, and don’t you fear what…Satan hasn’t got anything to do about it. Don’t argue with him; don’t fuss with him. Just ignore him and walk away. If...

Question

What does it mean when a sick person starts to feel just a little better?

Answer

Watch this. The nobleman, his son, he had heard of the fame of Jesus, and when he came he wanted Him to go down and heal his son. Now, that was the way he wanted it: Come down and heal him. And Jesus said, “Except you see signs you won’t believe.” And the man said, “Sir, come down ere my son dies.”...

Question

How long does a Divine healing last?

Answer

You watch, I see the blind come to the platform and receive their sight and read the Bible. Two or three days, come back just as blind as they ever was. Say, “How lasting is Divine healing?” Just as long as faith is. “How lasting is salvation?” Just as long as faith remains. Is that right? All right...

Question

What should a person expect in the days after a cancer leaves them through Divine healing?

Answer

Now, now, there’s something wrong with you (See?), a cancer. And you lay your hand on here, and as soon as we make contact, something jumps. Now, what is it? It’s the cancer on you, and the Angel of the Lord here. Now, it’s trying to hold you, and God is wanting to heal you. Now, I can’t make it go,...

Question

If I feel no better after being prayed for, does that mean I am not healed?

Answer

Daniel, when they told him they was going to throw him into the lions’ den, he was expecting God to be there. He believed that he lived right before God and he had a right. And every day he raised the shades, if there was any in them days, towards the temple and looked towards that holy temple and p...

Question

What should you do if you get sicker after being prayed for?

Answer

That’s what the devil tries to do all the time—burn you up on something, make you sicker when you’re prayed for, make you think you’ve lost your experience with God. He’s a lying to you. The time comes when you have to stand on God’s Word. Stand alone. But when that time comes, stand there. There’s...

Question

What should you say if symptoms appear after hands have been laid on you for healing?

Answer

Now, the Bible said, “These signs shall follow them that believe.” Is that right? “If they…” Now, that’s the last Words that Jesus give the Church. “If they lay their hands on the sick…” What will happen? “They shall recover.” Now, if symptoms should arise, what would you say? “It is written.” Is th...

Question

Why might someone healed of cancer feel worse about three days later?

Answer

Someone wrote me a letter today, a woman that was healed with cancer. She said, “For the first two or three days, I was gloriously, I felt wonderful. Then on the third day,” said, “I had an awful upset. Have I lost my healing?” Now, that should be explained in every m—every case each night. No, that...

Question

What happens when a sick person keeps testifying that they still have their sickness?

Answer

What if someone came up in the morning to your door, express agent, and throwed a whole basketful of rattlesnakes, and had your name on them. Said, “Here they are; they’re yours.” You know they’re there, just like you know your symptoms is there. If you receive them, they’re yours. But you don’t hav...

Question

Why do some people healed on the platform lose their healing afterward?

Answer

I’ve seen people come to the platform that was totally blind, couldn’t even see their hands before them. And in less than five minutes, take this same Bible and read a chapter out of it. And so three or four days more, come right back just as blind as they was in the first place. They get out amongs...
