Principles & Precepts (What to Believe)

  1. Healing is in the atonement—purchased with forgiveness by the same blood (Isa 53; Mt 8; 1 Pe 2:24; Ps 103:2-3).
  2. God’s nature & covenant don’t change (Heb 13:8; Ex 15:26; Ro 11:29).
  3. Healing is the children’s bread—your covenant right (Mt 15:26; Heb 8:6).
  4. Faith is voiced—believe & say (Mk 11:23-24; 2 Co 4:13).
  5. The Word is medicine—dose daily (Pr 4:20-22; Ps 107:20).
  6. Healing can be instant or progressive—“recover” means improve over time (Mk 16:18).
  7. Forgiveness + Love keep the channel open (Mk 11:25; Ga 5:6).
  8. Joy & holy laughter strengthen and resist (Pr 17:22; Ps 2:4; Job 5:22).
  9. Healing begins in the spirit and quickens the body (Jn 6:63; Ro 8:11).
  10. Means of grace: laying on of hands; prayer of faith; communion; authority (Mk 16; Jas 5; 1 Co 11; Lk 10:19).
  11. Healing is for all—God is no respecter of persons (Ac 10:34-35; Mt 12:15).
  12. Healing glorifies God and confirms the Gospel (Mt 15:31; Mk 16:20; Heb 2:3-4).

Practices (What to Do Daily)

Daily “Word-as-Medicine” Plan

  1. Morning: Read aloud Pr 4:20-22; Isa 53:4-5; 1 Pe 2:24 (3–5 minutes).
  2. Midday: Speak healing confessions (Mk 11:23; Ps 103:2-5).
  3. Evening: Thanksgiving & communion (1 Co 11:23-30) — discern the Lord’s body.

Maintain the Flow

  • Walk in forgiveness—release offenses immediately (Mk 11:25).
  • Practice joy—sing, laugh at the devil’s lies (Pr 17:22; Ps 2:4).
  • Hold fast your confession regardless of symptoms (Heb 10:23).
  • Use authority: “No, you don’t, Satan—take your hands off my body in Jesus’ Name” (Lk 10:19).

Receiving & Ministering

  • Prayer of Faith (Jas 5:14-15): Ask once, believe you receive, then thank until manifestation (Mk 11:24).
  • Laying on of Hands (Mk 16:17-18): Expect contact & transmission; recovery may be immediate or gradual.
  • Spirit-Led Obedience: Follow the Holy Spirit’s specific nudge for your case (Ro 8:14; Jn 16:13).
  • Feed Hearing: Faith comes by hearing and hearing (Ro 10:17)—saturate your atmosphere with the Word.
Tip: Track daily “symptom vs. confession” wins. Celebrate gradual improvements—“they shall recover.”

Declarations (Speak These Aloud)

Finished Work Confession

  • Jesus bore my sins, sickness, pain; by His stripes I was healed—therefore I am healed (Isa 53; 1 Pe 2:24).
  • God’s Word is life to me and health to all my flesh (Pr 4:20-22).
  • Healing is my covenant bread—I take my place at the Father’s table (Mt 15:26; Ps 23:5; Heb 8:6).
  • I believe, therefore I speak—mountains move, symptoms leave (Mk 11:23; 2 Co 4:13).
  • I forgive quickly; my faith works by love (Mk 11:25; Ga 5:6).
  • The joy of the Lord is my strength; I laugh at destruction and famine (Pr 17:22; Neh 8:10; Job 5:22).
  • The Spirit who raised Jesus quickens my mortal body now (Ro 8:11).
  • I hold fast my confession—no wavering (Heb 10:23).

Daily Short Form (morning & evening):
“The life of God flows in me. Jesus took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses. By His stripes I was healed; I am healed. I refuse sickness, I receive strength, and I recover quickly in Jesus’ Name.”

Testimonies (Illustrations from the Teaching)

  • Proverbs 4 “dosage”: A woman weak from long illness read/spoke Pr 4 daily; within a week strength rose and she testified healed from within.
  • Half-gospel corrected: A limping man realized 1 Pe 2:24 includes sickness; as he praised, strength came and he walked out whole.
  • Laughter in faith: In the night, symptoms returned; laughing at the devil’s lie while standing on 1 Pe 2:24—symptoms left.
  • Spirit-led obedience: Three similar mental-health cases received three different Spirit-led approaches—each restored.
  • Laying on of hands: Child who never walked took steps as power flowed “like liquid fire.”
  • Prayer of faith: Bedridden woman believed she received during prayer, then acted—stood and walked.
  • Communion: Man discerned the Lord’s body; 20-year stomach issue vanished while taking the bread.
  • Heb 13:8 crusade: Woman left wheelchair during worship—“Jesus the same today.”
  • Recovery over time: Tumor disappeared after steady confession—“God’s power is working in me.”
 
Why testimonies? They confirm the Word (Mk 16:20), glorify God (Mt 15:31), and build expectancy (Ac 14:8-10).
