5.0 out of 5 stars a call to a higher trust in God, October 14, 2003

By	"john_ip" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Divine Healing: Meditations on the Power of Prayer and the Prayer of Faith (Paperback)

This book is not just about healing. It teaches very clearly, taking very many Scriptures that you don't often hear in this context. But it is also about a life of trusting God through and through, growing in trust and seeing God move. Andrew Murray says that we lose a precious opportunity to grow in the Lord by relying on man and the methods in nature, but he does not come across as forbidding going to physicians, but rather as earnestly urging us to go higher in faith, giving us a glimpse of the blessing of wholly trusting in God. And who can get enough of that? I do think that this alone makes this book an invaluable experience.
Though I have been hearing teachings on healing for at least 10 years, the difference with this book is that when reading it, I sometimes feel I am on holy ground. Healing is not cheap, and Andrew Murray takes us on a journey with reverence and depth. You will be deeply blessed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Reading From Andrew Murray, November 23, 2008

By	Roy Ingle "The Seeking Disciple" (Augusta, GA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This book has been Murray's most debated book. While evangelicals love his books on prayer and surrender, few have taken time to read his book on divine healing of which Murray came to believe in after being healed himself. While it is true that Murray somewhat retracted from his views that he wrote in this book, he never denied that healing is needed in the Church nor that we should not obey James 5:13-16 and pray for the sick.

The book is written in short chapters so you can use this book to read for your devotions along with your Bible. Murray takes portions of Scriptures that focus on healing and expounds on them. While the chapters are short, the message is full of meat (Hebrews 5:14).

Overall I recommend this book for those wanting to study divine healing or deepen their faith in praying for the sick. No matter what your view of the manifestation gifts of 1 Corinthians 12, we all believe that the Lord God can do whatever He wants (John 14:12-14) and we should pray in faith for the sick (Mark 11:22-24) even if the person is not healed now. We should trust that God is sovereign and He does heal for His own glory and honor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent work on Divine healing, August 19, 2008

By	Philip L. Eneboe (Sisseton, SD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

John G Lake mentions this book in his writings, so I was very interested in reading it for myself. I was not disappointed. Andrew Murray presents a scriptural basis for Divine healing. He believed that salvation is for the body as well the soul, healing and forgiveness go hand in hand. He presents Christ as healer, and our need to take Him at His word. It can be hard to take, but he does believe that more sickness than we may think, is used as discipline. However with repentance, healing comes. This is a great work on healing, and I recommend it to all who desire to see God glorified in the healing of the body.
