Back To The Basics: Healing Prayer

[Music] welcome to back to basics everyone i'm jerry savelle thank you for joining me today it's an honor and a privilege to be able to share the word of god with you and i pray that as you watch today that this lesson is going to speak to your heart it's going to inspire your faith and it's going to cause you to come to the place in your life where you truly believe that you can be a overcomer that you can have victory in every area of your life now once again those of you that have been watching over the last couple of weeks or so we have been talking about developing an accurate prayer life and i want to read the scripture that we have read on some of the previous programs first john chapter 5 and verse 4 for whatsoever is born of god overcometh the world and this is the victory that overcometh the world even our faith god has said that if we choose to live by faith actually it's it's it's really not an option it is a command the just shall live by faith but he says when we choose to do so then we can expect this this is the victory that overcomes the world even our faith if we determine that we're going to live by faith in god's word then we can also expect to be world overcomers and part of overcoming the world is learning how to develop an accurate prayer life now we're already there in first john chapter 5 let's read verse 14 and 15. and this is the confidence that we have in him that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us now what is the key here asking anything according to his will now how do we know the will of god you know that's the problem with so many christians they don't have a clue what the will of god is they just pray whatever comes to their mind or pray off the top of their head or they pray like they've heard some religious person pray no the key to this is knowing the will of god well brother jerry you mean i can know the will of god even before i pray yes you can that's what this book is all about from genesis to revelation it is the will of god as i've said many times before you're going to probably hear me say it many times in the future god never says anything in his word and then wills the opposite if god's word says that he will supply all our need according to his riches in glory by christ jesus and he does say that in philippians 4 19. then if he says that then he will never do the opposite he promises to supply your needs so therefore it could never be his will that your needs be unmet okay now verse 14 uh 15 rather this is the confidence that we have in him that he hears us and whatever we ask we know that we have the petitions desired of him in other words when you pray the will of god which is what you found in his word then you can go into prayer with confidence and assurance that he will hear you and if you know that he hears you then you have the confidence that he will grant your petitions now a lot of christians sadly to say they pray but they they walk away saying well i don't know if he heard me or not i don't know if my prayer got any higher than the ceiling well you know i'd hate to spend my christian life living that way never knowing whether god heard me or not no i like knowing even before i pray that if i pray according to his word and i pray according to his will then he hears me settled no guesswork no might he he might not and he might will no it's no guesswork in it he will hear me well praise god that's a reason to shout right there i know god heard me and then another reason to shout is and i know that i have the petitions i've desired of him now what could be better than that that you began your prayer knowing that as you're praying according to his will he hears you and not only that that you are promised that whatever you have asked according to his will then you will have it granted unto you that's another reason to shout praise god that means every time you close that prayer with amen so be it then praise god you can start shouting you should you can start thanking god in advance because you know that you know that he heard you and that his uh he's going to grant you whatever you have desired of him now let's go to proverbs chapter 4 and let's let's let's talk about for the rest of our time here today talk about praying according to his word regarding healing okay now if you need healing in your body i want you to listen to this very closely uh you know we we have offices all over the world and my my staff tells me that one of the number one prayer requests they receive is people are asking for prayer for healing or for health number two is prosperity praying for financial needs to be met so this is something that the majority of the body of christ deals with uh almost daily so if you're one of the people that needs healing in your body right now if you have a way of taking notes take notes because i want to show you how that you can pray accurately regarding healing and health coming into your body now first of all proverbs chapter 4 verse 20 through 22 my son attend to my words incline thine ears unto my sayings let them not depart from thine eyes keep them in the midst of thine heart for they are life unto those who find them and health to all their flesh notice god is telling us through the writings of solomon in proverbs chapter 4 that his words contain life his words contain health notice it says and they are health to all your flesh the amplified bible says that his word is healing and health to all your flesh so if you need healing wouldn't it be the smartest thing to do is go to his word and find out what his word says about healing now if you do that then you're going to discover in isaiah chapter 53. read it it talks about it is a prophecy regarding the substitutionary sacrifice of jesus isaiah is writing about it years and years and years before it ever took place and he says that by his stripes you were healed so he is saying that when jesus eventually comes into the earth the bible says in the fullness of time god sent his son and you know that he went to the cross eventually and on the cross he bore our sickness he bore our sorrow he bore our pain and with his stripes we are healed that's what the word says and what did proverbs say his word is healing and his word is health to all your flesh so when you go to the word and you look up the scriptures concerning healing then you're going to end up eventually in isaiah chapter 53 where it says once again by his stripes you were healed well let me say it this way if you were healed then you are healed amen if you were healed then you are healed say it with me if i were healed then i am healed amen now first peter chapter 2 and verse 24 it says who him his own self bore stripes on his body that by those stripes we were healed amen so once again we're going to the word to find out what his word says about our healing and about our health so so far i now have two or three scriptures that i can depend on when i start praying his word making his word his part of my prayer life i know this isaiah 53 says that i was healed uh first peter 2 24 i am healed proverbs chapter 4 his word is healing to my flesh amen another translation says it's medicine to my flesh so when i pray i'm going to pray like this father in the name of jesus i need healing in my body i'm experiencing pain i'm experiencing some sort of sickness or symptoms or disease even an incurable disease whatever it may be but your word says and i'm making your word your part of my prayer life your word says in first peter 2 24 i was healed your word says in isaiah chapter 53 i was healed your word says in proverbs 4 that your word is healing and health to my flesh so i'm presenting your word back to you i'm returning your word back to you and your word declares in isaiah that it will not return unto you void it will accomplish that which you please so i'm believing in jesus name as i return your word back to you you're going to hasten your word watch over your word to perform it in jesus name and i'm going to begin to declare the moment i say amen i'm going to start declaring i am healed in the name of jesus amen that's how you pray accurately that's how you develop an accurate prayer life now let me read this to you psalm 107 verse 20 verse 20 he sent his word and healed them and delivered them from their destructions he sent his word why because his word contains life his word contains healing that's what i'm doing to you today i am sending god's word to you and if you will receive it then his word contains life and his word contains health say right now lift both hands and say lord i receive your word and you said when you send your word it heals and delivers me in the name of jesus so say that i receive your word and i receive the healing that it produces and the deliverance that it produces in jesus name amen so be it i am healed praise god now listen to this in hebrews chapter 4 and verse 12 the amplified says for his for the word of the lord or the word that god speaks it is alive it's full of power making it active operative energizing and effective the word of god is full of power amen so say this in the name of jesus i have presented your word to you in my prayer regarding healing and health and your word is full of power i receive that power into my body right now i receive it in jesus name and i believe that it is going to bring healing and health to me and i thank you for it amen and amen and what does amen mean so be it as far as you're concerned you have just done what first john chapter 5 verse 14 and 15 says if i ask anything according to his will he hears me and if i if if he hears me then i know i have the petitions that i've desired of him you have just prayed accurately you haven't prayed and missed you haven't prayed incorrectly and you can count on it god is going to respond to your prayer now my challenge to you as i close this program today is this stay in faith let me say it again stay in faith don't be moved by what you feel don't be moved by what you see don't be moved by what others say just stay in faith you keep saying you keep decreeing the bible says that we are to hold fast to the promises hold fast to the word of god so you do that you just continue to to speak i've done it i mean when i was when i still had pain in my body and i had just prayed according to his word and said amen i've walked away with the pain still in my body and i would say i am not moved by what i feel i'm moved by what i believe and i believe the word of god and the word of god says i'm healed so therefore i'm healed and then i say this now body you just get in line with the word of god and if i have to do that all day i'm going to do it if i have to do it today and tomorrow and all week i'm going to do it why because i know that i know that he sends his word and it heals and delivers praise god so once again i send the word to you today in jesus name the word of healing the word of health receive it and be healed in the name of jesus amen and amen lift your hands right now and begin to thank god for it and then as soon as this program is over with you just spend the rest of the day praising god for your healing and praising god for divine health amen praise god all right join with me again next time and until then i want to encourage you keep applying the basic principles of the word of god and as you do then you're going to begin to live a life of total victory i'll see you next time [Music]
