[Praxeas]

What are some good healing scriptures? Scriptures to meditate over and pray with?

[Elizabeth]

Ps 103:3 comes to mind-

[Elizabeth]

Ps 30:2

[Elizabeth]

Ps 107:20

[Elizabeth]

Isaiah 53:5

[Praxeas]

Thanks Sis

Psa 103:1 Of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name!
Psa 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits,
Psa 103:3 who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases,

This entire psalm is a good one

Psa 30:2 O LORD my God, I cried to you for help, and you have healed me.
Psa 30:3 O LORD, you have brought up my soul from Sheol; you restored me to life from among those who go down to the pit.
Psa 30:4 Sing praises to the LORD, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name.

Psa 107:19 Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.
Psa 107:20 He sent out his word and healed them, and delivered them from their destruction.
Psa 107:21 Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of men!
Psa 107:22 And let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving, and tell of his deeds in songs of joy!

Isa 53:4 Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.
Isa 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed.

Luk 4:18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed,
Luk 4:19 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."

Jas 5:13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise.
Jas 5:14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
Jas 5:15 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
Jas 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.
Jas 5:17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth.
Jas 5:18 Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit.

1Pe 2:24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

I like Ps 103:4 also

Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

[Elizabeth]

Luke 4:18

[Michael Phelps]

What are some good healing scriptures? Scriptures to meditate over and pray with?

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.


1 Peter 2:24 (Whole Chapter)
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

[Praxeas]

Thanks...keep them coming folks...anything about healing or even something to build up your faith

[Pressing-On]

Psalm 91:1 "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty."

We cannot find healing or faith unless we have spent time in his presence. The Word will produce faith and healing by drawing us into His presence.

[SDG]

Isaiah 53:5

By His stripes we are healed ...

For awhile I've struggled whether or not we in some ways misapply this verse to automatically mean physical healing .... or that somehow as some say we don't have enough faith in what he did on the cross if we do not receive healing

Looking at the context of it .... it seems to pertain mostly to our spiritual man and condition ...

5But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

One writer states:

"The phrase "we were healed" in Strongs Concordance the Hebrew word is chabbuwrah- bound (with stripes), i.e. a weal (or black-and-blue mark itself):

The root word is #2266 chabar-1) to unite, to join, to bind together, to be joined, to be coupled, to be in league, to heap up, to have fellowship with, to unite, to join oneself to, to make an alliance.

By his stripes we were healed, we were made united to God spiritually now having fellowship where sin once kept us from this. While this does not dismiss his physically healing us, it in no way is a guarantee of it. To teach this can be just as much a disservice than someone teaching God no longer heals!"

And so I think we can apply it to physical healing but really the thrust of this message is that by His sacrifice we are make whole w/ and in God.

[RandyWayne]

When Jesus said "forgive them" talking about the people who were in the very process of crucifying Him.

I often think of this when I am irate at someone.... I either think of it or He is gently "reminding me".

Of course, it's not about healing in the physical sense....

Matthew 4:23
Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people

More from the article on being healed by His stripes:

Do we see the apostles use this as a guarantee for their sicknesses or afflictions. Paul mentions Christ being crushed for our sins in the communion service, but he has nothing to say about healing (using phrases taken from atonement Scriptures). This verse is cited twice in the New Testament. In Romans 4:25: where the context is Jesus suffering for our sins. The Greek term `healing' ( therapis from the Hebrew rapha) is not found in the text and the context deals with sin, not illness.

1 Pet. 2:24: "Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness-- by whose stripes you were healed..

Peter In 1 Pt.2:21-24 applies this to the cross and the spiritual healing of sins, he says nothing about the healing of diseases in our now mortal bodies. So we see that both New Testament references to this verse do not mentions illness.

While Isa.53:5 says we are healed, Peter refers the stripes to being on the cross (not before) and says by whose stripes you were healed, making it past tense. Showing when event was accomplished. It is related to our spiritual healing of sins not physical well being. To further solidify the context of this interpretation Isa.53:6 speaks of us as sheep going astray. 1 Pt.2:25 also uses the same format, "as sheep gone astray but now returning to the shepherd of our souls. Today he heals through his death, the atonement and through his present ministry of intercession.

Good post, Daniel!!!!!!!

Exodus 15:26 ...I am the Lord that healeth thee

[mizpeh]

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever!

Another thing I really like is something Caleb said in Numbers 13:30 after they spied out the Promised land: Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.

All the promises of God are ours just like the promised land was for the Isrealites. We only need the faith like Caleb to go and possess those promises.

[Barb]

Ps 107:20

Oh yes, this is one of my favorites...

A few years ago, I wrote out some of these same healing Sciptures on small poster board and sent them to a friend's mom in California, and then a year ago to another's friend's mom.

Both ladies have said that they still read their Scriptures and keep them close...keeping the Word close is SO important.

This is a good thread...

(Matt 8:17; Jn 10:10)

[Praxeas]

(Matt 8:17; Jn 10:10)
This verse that you quote might be the monkey wrench in the argument that by his stripes we are healed does not refer to physical healing..

Isa 53:4 Surely He has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
Isa 53:5 But He was wounded for our transgressions; He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was on Him; and with His stripes we ourselves are healed.

Mat 8:16 And evening coming on, they brought to Him many who had been possessed with demons. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick
Mat 8:17 so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, "He took on Himself our weaknesses and bore our sicknesses."

BTW I would agree healing here is not just physical. There are some though that claim this only applies to spiritual

Prax, I think II Pet 1:3-4 would certainly include physical health and healing, as well as provision (whispering lest some on AFF should hear) "prosperity gospel".

Also Acts 10:38

I need healing, but I was just thinking of SoCal saying about praying scriptures and wondered what others here thought were good verses

Oh, okay will be praying for you as well as SoCal. And I have read about praying scriptures from an author I wish I could remember her name. It was a book about how to pray and ways to pray effectively and for particular things.

[mizpeh]

This is a verse I put on an index card and was going to read and meditate on every night before I went to bed. I did it one night but I'm going to start again tonight..:

Matt 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith



My pastor taught on these verses last Sunday:

Luke 9:22-23 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.



Two Sundays ago before service started while sitting in the sactuary, this verse came to my mind. I asked the person next to me if she knew where I could find it in the Bible:

John 11:40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?



Jesus healed ALL that came to Him:

Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

[SoCaliUPC]

This is some of what I have been praying....

Jesus is the Lord of my life. Sickness and disease have no power over me. I am forgiven and free from sin and guilt. I am dead to sin and live unto righteousness.

I Peter 2:24, Romans 6:11, 2 Cor 5:21 - Jesus bore my sins in His body on the tree; therefore I am dead to sin and alive unto God and by His stripes I am healed and made whole.

Psalm 107:20 - Jesus bore my sickness and carried my pain. Therefore, I give no place to sickness of pain. For God sent His Word and healed me.

John 10:10, John 6:63 - You have given me abundant life. I receive that life through Your Word and it flows in every organ of my body bringing healing and health.

Matthew 8:17, John 6:63 - Jesus took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses. Therefore, I refuse to allow sickness to dominate my body. The life of God flows within me bringing healing to every fiber of my being.

Mark 11:23, Luke 17:6 - I am redeemed from the curse. Galatians 3:13 is flowing in my bloodstream. It flows to every cell of my body restoring life and health.

I will add more......just a quick start.

[RevDWW]

Exo 15:26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.

3Jo 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

De 7:15 And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee.

[Bro-Larry]

Everybody has enough faith to be healed, in fact we are to use God's faith anyway. "Have the faith of God" or He could have said, "Use God's faith". (Mk 11:22)

I think the key to all these scriptures is not the quantity of faith, (it only takes a mustard seed to move a mountain), but the more important thing is to get rid of doubt. (vs. 23)

Be sure to follow the instructions of Jesus exactly. Speak the mountain (problem), and tell it where to go. Don't doubt in your heart, just believe that what you say will come to pass. (vs 23)

Leave it at that. (vs 24) Don't talk about it, don't be sensual by judging the word with your five senses. Don't gauge whether or not it's working by looking at the symptoms, with your five senses. Your senses will give you the facts, but they will not give you the truth. Just believe the truth of the word.

Just give thanks for the answer, until the answer comes.

Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.

Luke 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.

Luke 11:9-10 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Praying for you, Prax. :)

Isaiah 38:20 The LORD was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD.

He told Hezekiah through a prophet that he was going to die from his illness but after Hezekiah prayed, before the prophet was out the door of the palace, God answered Hezekiah's prayer. God was ready (waiting) to heal Hezekiah before Hezekiah prayed.

God is no respecter of persons. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Matthew 9:6 (http://bibleresources.bible.com/passagesearchresults.php?passage1=Matthew+9&version=9) and also Mark 2:11 (http://bibleresources.bible.com/passagesearchresults2.php?passage1=Mark+2&book_id=48&version1=9&tp=16&c=2) they both talk about the same event. I would also recommend the forgiveness scriptures as well as the practice of it in and of itself. I sort of intuitively did once with a bulged disk injury and a second time where I hurt that disk again or bulged another, I don't know since I never had to go to a Dr. The second time, the injury was so severe, I developped a spine paralysis to about 85 to 90 %. I was so disabled I done nothing but forgive and ask for forgiveness from Jesus, and on the side, I for 48 hrs straight asked Christ to give me a miracle. At one point I got up, and that took me about 7 mns to do. But once I was up, all the hell I was in simply vanished and Matthew 9:6 has been Q-ed up to my head (all I heard was "Get up, take your mat and go home"). Later when I reviewed the whole thing, I realized it was Christ Who sent in that scripture at that very moment to basically confirm that He is the One that commanded me to get up so the paralysis would be shaken down. Praise Him. If you are sick or injured, forgive and ask to be forgiven. Do it genuinely, sincerely, humbly, do it like a child, do it long enough and I promise you you won't be disappointed. I now try to practice forgiveness to work to solve all situations not just the health related.

Also, in commenting about the connection between the spiritual and physical healing or about spiritual vs. physical healing, I'd say that I personally believe the physical healing is rooted in the spritual one. If a person has a physical situation and they wish for Christ to take care of business for them, they'd first have to come clean with Him on Spiritual level, that's a step # one. And to Him no one can lie. Once they surrender and surrender just for the sake of surrendering, the spiritual ball would be sent back to Him, and of course it will be up to Him to heal or not to heal. But being Who He is, chances are He will Heal them.

By His stripes we are healed ...

For awhile I've struggled whether or not we in some ways misapply this verse to automatically mean physical healing .... or that somehow as some say we don't have enough faith in what he did on the cross if we do not receive healing

Looking at the context of it .... it seems to pertain mostly to our spiritual man and condition ...



One writer states:

"The phrase "we were healed" in Strongs Concordance the Hebrew word is chabbuwrah- bound (with stripes), i.e. a weal (or black-and-blue mark itself):

The root word is #2266 chabar-1) to unite, to join, to bind together, to be joined, to be coupled, to be in league, to heap up, to have fellowship with, to unite, to join oneself to, to make an alliance.

By his stripes we were healed, we were made united to God spiritually now having fellowship where sin once kept us from this. While this does not dismiss his physically healing us, it in no way is a guarantee of it. To teach this can be just as much a disservice than someone teaching God no longer heals!"

And so I think we can apply it to physical healing but really the thrust of this message is that by His sacrifice we are make whole w/ and in God.

More on this topic here (http://www.letusreason.org/Wf10.htm)



The whole cause of sickness is the curse of sin which brought spiritual and eventually brings physical death. He took the punishment for sin which now Heals us from the cause of sickness, sin. We now have life eternal which is far more important than physical life. Every one is aging, that is brought on by an attack on our body by disease until the day we eventually return to the dust, waiting for the redemtion of our physical bodies with incoruptable bodies.

In the process of proving his ability to have the power over sin he demonstrated that he can heal the symptoms of sin, sickness. We also in the short term do rely on that power over sickness through his redemptive blood so that we can continue to do his work effectively.

It would do very little good to pray for someone who is lost to be healed from a disease without a healing of his soul. That would extend the phsical life but would still eventually lead to eternal death.

That is why associated with healing is the forgiveness of sins.

A lesson on healing that I taught at our church a couple of years ago in a midweek service and that I will be teaching tomorrow morning at a prayer meeting at the Presbyterian Church in Hamilton, OH.

As an atheist with like 3 deleted accounts for things that 'weren't questions or answers' (but were mostly just vicious or troublesome) I have no sympathy for you. I don't report you for anything and that's all you're going to get from me.

Job 33

14For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.

15In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;

16Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,

17That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.

18He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

19He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:

20So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.

21His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.

22Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.

23If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:

24Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.

25His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth:

26He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.

27He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;

28He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.

29Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,

30To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.

Deuteronomy 8:5
Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.

Proverbs 13:24
He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

Hebrews 12:6
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

Hebrews 12:7
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When one is afflicted with sickness or disease, perhaps the prudent thing to do would be to seek God in an effort towards determining whether such is His way of "chastening" us (that is to say, inflicting pain upon our physical body as a manner of instruction/correction of a fault).

Interesting thought, no?
