Healing Scriptures and Prayers [Paperback]

Jeff Doles (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 2003

GOD WANTS YOU WELL!

Someone has said that prayer is not about overcoming God's reluctance, but about laying hold of His willingness. This can also be said of healing ministry ~ it is not about overcoming God's reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness to heal. God's willingness is seen in His Word, where He has repeatedly revealed His desire to heal His people. The format of healing Scriptures and healing prayers is designed to help you lay hold of God's willingness to heal you by laying hold of His Word and praying it back to Him in faith.

The Bible says that "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God" (Romans 10:17). The Word of God reveals the will of God, and so enables us to pray effectively. "Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him" (1 John 5:14-15). Healing is the will of God for His people, as these Scriptures show, so you can pray confidently, knowing that He hears you, and that you will receive your healing.
In this book you will discover:

• God's healing words in the Old Testament
• How healing is revealed in the names of God
• How to choose life
• God's healing words in the New Testament
• The healing ministry of Jesus
• The healing ministry of the disciples
• Life restoration stories in the Bible
• How healing is revealed in the name of Jesus
• The Lord's Prayer as healing prayer
• The Lord's Supper as healing prayer

This is also a great tool to help you minister healing to others.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"I believe this book to be an excellent resource for those hungering to walk in divine health." -- Rick C. Wilson, Apostolic Director, International Apostolic Ministries

"I recommend this book to every Healing Team/Healing Rooms ministry." -- Wayne C. Anderson, Healing Evangelist and President of Standsure Ministries

"This book is for those wanting physical healing, and for everyone who wants a deeper and richer relationship with God." -- Ben R. Peters, President of Open Heart Ministries, Intl., Author and International Evangelist

Faith in the promises of God is the most important aspect of the ministry of divine healing, as well as the way to a walk in divine health. Jeff Doles has labored diligently to correctly lay out those healing promises in such a manner that this book can be both a refreshment to the soul of an individual needing a wonderful touch of Christ, or the person who is desiring to operate in the ministry of divine healing and setting people free. I would also recommend this book to every Healing Team/Healing Rooms ministry as an important working instrument for their own faith and the building of faith in those to whom they minister. --Wayne C. Anderson

Their desire is to help you take the next step of faith in your walk with the Lord, live in the reality of His kingdom, and experience the presence and power of God in your life.

Jeff received the Lord Jesus Christ at the age of six and grew up in the Christian and Missionary Alliance church.

MORE ABOUT JEFF

ABOUT fifteen years ago I asked the Lord to teach me about faith. Now, don't get me wrong. I grew up in a Christian home, received the Lord Jesus Christ at a very early age, and even went to Bible college, where I studied all the major doctrines of "the faith" (along with many minor ones). Even learned about apologetics and how to "defend the faith."

But something was missing. I would see people who had nowhere near the Christian background or Biblical training that I had, but they knew how to grab hold of faith, step out on faith and accomplish great things with their faith. I envied them. Though I knew Jesus, and I understood and appreciated faith as a doctrinal matter, I did not know how to use my faith in the very practical way these folks did.

That's when I asked the Lord, and He began to take me through the "School of Practical Faith." He introduced me to what faith actually is, where it comes from, how it grows and develops and gets strong, and how it operates. He revealed the power of words -- His words -- in my mouth. He showed me that faith requires love and love requires faith. He also taught me how faith partners with patience and develops expectation. He instructed me in the absolute necessity of forgiving others and how that sets my faith free. In short, He taught me the dynamics of faith.

That's what my books and blogs are about. As God has been teaching me, I have been taking notes and sharing with others what I have learned. It is a work in progress, one that will take me the rest of my life, because, now that I've learned how to use my faith in practical ways, the Bible has become even more vibrant and exciting. I'm trading my thoughts for God's, believing His Word for all its worth (and rejoicing at its infinite value). And I'm discovering a host of life-changing, world-changing truths -- things I had never noticed before I learned how to apply my faith.

I ordered this product because I was looking for scriptures I needed to apply them for the need I had for healing in my body because I was sick. I found just what I was searching for and was dramatically healed in Jesus name. It did not take a long time. In a matter of days before I finished reading the scriptures and praying the prayers included in the book, I was healed. Thank God for the book,author and for Amazon. com for offering this book online!

This book is great if you are just learning about healing, needing a healing or wanting to minister healing. When I was quite sick, I had a hard time concentrating, but I could follow the cd along with the book. It was a life saver!
Thanks.
