INTRODUCTION:
A careful study of the Scriptures will reveal that God’s original plan for man is
for him to enjoy total wellbeing. Perhaps this informed majority of His laws to man, to ensure that man lives well through obedience to those laws, while on earth. Divine healing is God’s
intervention where situations and challenges of life speak otherwise. We can boldly say that there is no healing
without God’s intervention, whether through orthodox medicine, herbal medication or prayers.
It is God’s prerogative to determine the method by. which an ailment could be
healed. Some drugs are manufactured from herbs and God created the herbs and. specifically said that some of them are for man’s healing. The scriptures contain numerous promises of Good
concerning healing and wholesome life for man. Healing is part and parcel of
the salvation package procured by our Lord Jesus for us on the cross. He borne our sickness when He died for our
Sins. In this study, we shall examine among other things how to appropriate God’s promises to bring about our healing and how to maintain healthy lifestyle.

God made man in His own image and likeness and placed him in the garden of Eden to dress and keep it. He instructed man not to eat the fruit of a particular tree in the garden because the day he
eats of the fruit he will die. However, man could not keep the commandment and ate of the fruit, and ‘died”. Through this disobedience, man became
subject to the manipulation of the devil of which sicknesses and diseases are by products. So, sickness and suffering are the product of curses God placed on
man as a result of sin against God.

Q2. IS IT GOD’S WILL FOR US TO BE HEALED AND BE IN GOOD HEALTH?
DISCUSS: EXOD. 15: 26; DEUT. 7: 13-15; MARK 16: 17-19; JMS. 5: 13-15; PS. 103:
3-5:3 John 2.

Yes, it is God’s will for us to be healed and be in good health during our sojourn here on earth. This is obvious because, at the point He placed the curse on
man, He also put in place a plan not only to heal man from the sickness that would emerge as a result of the curses, but a perpetual remedy to the effect of
the sin against lim (God). (Gen.3: 15). In addition, He declared in His word, that He is our healer. He cannot lie, so He is willing at all time to heal and keep us in
good health. (Exod. 15: 26; Ps.
103:3; Jer. 30: 17.)

Q3. WHAT CONDITION SHOULD BELIEVERS MEET TO BE HEALED? Ps
66: 18; Mark 9: 23, 11: 24; Jn. 15:7; Rom. 12: 1; Exod. 15: 26.
Healing is a part of the package in the salvation Christ procured for us on the cross with His blood. There fore, the first
condition a believer should meet to qualify for divine healing is to ensure that he/she is born again. (has received Jesus Christ into his/her heart as Lord and personal Saviour), thereafter,
healing becomes his/her bread as a child of God. (Mark 7: 27). The believer must live a life of total obedience to God and His word. Have absolute trust and implicit faith in His faithfulness and
ability to fulfil all His promises. The believer must ask, in accordance with His will, to be healed. (Luk. 17: 19) Holy living with purity of heart is a necessary
requirement. The believer must have an intimate relationship with God. He had repeatedly,. declared in His word that He is. Our healer, so the believer must
EXercise absolute faith in his/her
belief that God will heal him/her
(Heb. 11:6).

Q4. WHAT ARE HINDRANCES TO DIVINE HEALING Ps. 66: 18; Mark
6:1-6; James 1:6-8.
Sin is the greatest barrier in our relationship with God, and it constitutes a great hindrance in receiving anything from God. Where ever sin exist
communication with God is absolutely impossible. God is holy and any relationship with. Him must stand on a foundation of holiness. A sinful man cannot receive anything from a holy
God.. Another hindrance to divine healing is unbelief. “But without faith it is impossible to. please Him, for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that
diligently seek Him.” Unbelief and faithlessness are major hindrances to receiving divine healing. (Mark 6: 5-6). Doubt is another great hindrances to
receiving anything from God. The Scripture says that anyone who doubts, is a double minded person, so unstable in all his ways. Doubt is the opposite of faith, and Scripture recommends faith without doubt as the only way to receive from God
(James. I:6-8).

Q5. HOW DO WE APPROPRIATE GOD’S PROMISES TO OURSELVES TO BRING ABOUT HEALING AND REMAIN HEALTHY?
Rom. 10: 10; Mark 9: 23, 11: 22-
24; Matt. 8:5-10; Mark 5: 25- 34.
Our understanding of who God is,
is important if we must appropriate His promises to ourselves. Equally important Is our knowledge of the attached conditions. The general condition is to believe that He exists. “he that cometh to Him must believe that He is, as recommended by the Scripture. Another one is belief without doubt, that He is able to fulfil all His promises.
There are generalized and specific conditions attached to God’s promises. We must understand the conditions attached to our desired promise, believe and approach God in prayers with faith.
Through this process, we can appropriate God’s promises for healing and healthy living, and God in His faithfulness will heal us.

DAILY LIVING APPLICATION:
Healing and divine health is the right of God’s children. If we be God’s children, there is no reason whatsoever for us to remain in bondage of sickness and
diseases. There is enough balm
in Gilead for our healing. Let us take our stand in the word of God and be steadfast in our faith in God. His will for us is to remain and walk in divine health.

MEMORY VERSE: (ISAIAH 53: 5) “But He was wounded for
our transgression, He was bruised for our iniquities: The chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.
