I have gained healing

Isaiah 53:5 – But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

Did you know receiving healing from God isn't something we may get if we continue to pray about it. No, receiving healing is actually a God-given right as a child of God. 1 Peter 2:24 says very clearly, ‘By His wounds, you have been healed'. In this instance, the key words here are 'you have been' healed. It doesn't say you may be healed or might be healed. It says you HAVE been healed.

Just like Jesus' sacrifice on the cross brings us salvation when we repent and give our lives to Him, His sacrifice on the cross also brings us healing. But if that’s the case, why do many people not get healed of their illnesses? Truly, only God knows why someone may not get healed. But there is no doubt a big reason why people struggle to receive healing, or many things for that matter, comes down to belief.

Jesus said in Matthew 21:22, “If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”

Not all healing comes automatically. Sometimes it can take a while, but if we continue to believe that healing is ours, no matter how long we wait, we will receive it. Today, believe that God is not only a healing God, but a God who is willing to heal you (Matthew 8:3) and will do so if you believe. You have inherited that right!

Prayer: Lord, thank You that when You died on the cross, I not only received salvation, but I also received Your healing. Thank You that You are a healing God and are willing to heal me. Help me believe today that I can be healed of whatever I am going through. Help me believe it is my right as Your child. In Jesus name, Amen.
