The most frequent activity of our Savior Yeshua while He was on earth was healing the sick. He even commissioned His disciples to go out and proclaim the the Good News and heal the sick and cast out demons. We also see in the Book of Acts many accounts of healing occurring. But in the 21st century, where have all the healings gone?
Why are we not seeing more supernatural healing happening today? It is happening and has been happening for quite some time but should be happening much more. There have been many more situations in our private lives that we have not seen healing take place compared to the times that it did. We had one son who was miraculously healed of a serious blood condition, and years later we are still thankful for it.
What’s the key when it comes to seeing the people getting healed by the Lord? The gospels pretty much make the connection to our faith (“your faith has made you whole, according to your faith”, etc.) To answer our initial question, the answer is basically found in the question, where has the church’s faith gone?
Much of the Christian church teaches that divine healing is not even available to us any longer. Faith for healing is not being taught in many churches. Many churches will even ridicule Christians who teach this and practice this belief of praying for the sick to be healed.
The other major reason is that many Christians are not willing to take the risk of praying for someone to be healed. We firmly believe that every Christian has the anointing in them to release the supernatural grace for healing, whether we are talking about dealing with a cold or dealing with cancer.
If more churches would preach about healing and more Christians would would start laying their hands on people suffering from some illness, we would see more healing events.
We must start somewhere and call upon our anointing for healing to do the work of Yeshua in our world now by using our healing hands. Believe that there is healing from Jesus in your hands.
