Summary:

I want to start by sharing some Scriptures.

John 10:10 ESV
10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.

Acts 10:38 ESV
38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

James 4 ESV
6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Scriptures on Healing

Exodus 15:26
God is the my Healer

3 John 2 ESV 
2 Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.

1 Peter 2:24 ESV
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.

Psalm 103:2-3 ESV
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
    and forget not all his benefits,
3 who forgives all your iniquity,
    who heals all your diseases,

I remember a time when I could tell a cold was coming on.
I knew sickness wasn’t of God and I knew the God tells me through his Word to resist it. So just starting saying, sickness I resist you.

You see my heart was to humble myself before God and do what he says do. I knew the Word says to resist what the devil brings so I simply stated and made my confession of, “Sickness I resist you.” On the authority of the Word I resisted.

Then I humbled myself again and prayed, “God, is there anything else or anything specific you want me to do in resisting this cold?”  It seemed he answered me down in my spirit saying, “Take some cough medicine for the symptoms”.  That’s what I believed God spoke to my through just a knowing in my spirit and that’s what I did.  The cold that was coming, never did come. Glory to God!

Blessings in Christ,
