Healing Is Benefit of Knowing God

Hope for Healing, Faith for Living Podcast

We’ve been talking about the evidence in Scripture that healing is part of God’s will for us. Today I want to continue looking at the Scriptural evidence proving healing is God’s will. Our goal is to know and believe what God has proclaimed in his Word as truth. His truth is to be our truth. His will is what we are to submit to, act on and believe for.

You see it’s not that we are asking God to do something for us that we desire. No. What we are doing is looking to His Word to see what His desire for us is, then pursue it.

Let’s look at a passage found in Psalm 103

1 Bless the Lord, O my soul,

and all that is within me,

bless his holy name!

2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,

and forget not all his benefits,

3 who forgives all your iniquity,

who heals all your diseases,

4 who redeems your life from the pit,

who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,

5 who satisfies you with good

so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

Does this passage list healing as a benefit of knowing God?

Yes it does. Now is this true or not. You have to make your mind up.

Will your belief be determined by God’s Word or something else. Will it be determined by what you have heard others say or preach? Will it be determined by what you have experienced in the past or even in the present?

Or, will you base your belief about God and his will for your life on what he has revealed through his Word?

If the answer to that is yes, then make your words line up with God’s Word and begin to confess that healing is one of the benefits that belong to you as a child of God.
