He had undergone five abdominal operations to cut the cancer from his body, to no avail. The mass in his belly was so large, it made him appear to be carrying a child. The cancer had cost him his job, his joy, his wealth, and soon would take his life as well. He had not yet reached 45 years of age.
Are you like this man? Hopeless,
helpless, and duped by the devil into putting your faith into anything except God's
Medicine, His Living Word, The Lord Jesus Christ? Be inspired by what happened
next.
The Hindu attended a Gospel crusade and listened attentively to the Good News that Christ is Almighty God in the Flesh, and He offers free salvation to whoever will repent and believe in Him. That He will forgive all your sins, give you eternal life, righteousness, peace, and heal all your sicknesses and infirmities by simple faith in Him.
"What a deal! What have I got to lose?" He must have thought to himself.
The dear desperate man was
convinced, and immediately repented, trusting in Christ as only Lord and
Savior. Following a simple prayer for salvation, he requested prayer for
healing. Encouraged by the Evangelist, he publically threw away his idols,
charms, and religious trinkets (a very brave sign of genuine repentance in such
a superstitious society), and put his whole trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Evangelist rebuked the cancerous spirit, commanding it to go in Jesus' Name. Immediately, the man's face lit up, and he yelled, "I felt it go!" Clutching his stomach he discovered it had returned to normal size, and wept in silent gratitude, made speechless by the love and grace of God. Saved and healed through simple faith in the Blood of Christ.
Jesus will do the same for you if you will only believe!
Christ died so you can enjoy
complete forgiveness as well as perfect health. God wants every Christian to be
physically healed as much as He wants you to be forgiven.
Praise the Lord O my soul, and forget not all his benefits. Who forgives all your sins, and heals all your diseases. Holy Bible, Psalm 103 NIV
Forgiveness and healing are gifts
from God, you can't earn them, you simply receive them by faith. Faith is
knowing God will keep His Promises, and do what He said He'll do.
Healing for India

God commands us to ask believing that we receive what we ask for.
When he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord. James 1:6-7
Nobody is saved until they're sure God wants to forgive them, that God loves them, and Christ died for their sins. When they grasp that salvation is for everyone who will believe in Christ Jn. 3:16, Ro.10:13, Rev. 22:17 they accept the gift of eternal life, and are born again. It's exactly the same for healing. If you're sick or infirm in any way, be convinced by God's Promises that it is His will to heal you physically now.
Traditional religion tells you to qualify your prayer for healing with, "If it is your will Lord." Such a statement shows the person has no faith for healing, so they cannot experience a miracle. That's the reason so many Christians and church-goers are sick. They are not taught, or they ignore, God's Promises, and the clear declaration of His will to heal, they dabble with alternative therapies, and are duped by New Age dietary-fads (that Satan dresses up as 'Christian') to distract them from genuine faith in Christ.
Establish this Gospel fact in your heart today. God has abundantly promised physical healing for His children. According to the Holy Bible, salvation includes perfect health for God's glory.
Look at what happened in the Bible when the Gospel was preached:
The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders among the people... more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number.
As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter's shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by evil spirits, and all of them were healed. Acts 5:12-16
Notice, and all of them were healed, that shows God's will today for everyone who is sick. Christ's ministry of healing the sick continued after He went to Heaven. all of them were healed was a fulfilment of God's healing covenant.
I am the Lord who heals you. Ex. 15:26
Anyone who trusts in Christ is included in the 'you' of God's healing covenant. all of them were healed was the experience of the whole of Israel.
There was not one feeble person among the tribes. Psalm 105:37 KJV
The same happened when any sick person followed Jesus.
Many followed him, and he healed their sick. Mtt. 12:15
If you are following Jesus, He will heal you too. all of them were healed is God's Promise to you now. Healing for all was included under the Old Covenant.
I am the Lord who heals you. Worship the Lord your God, and I will take away sickness from among you. Ex. 15:26 and 23:25
Therefore, how much more is healing part of the New Covenant, which God tells us is a better covenant, superior to the old one and founded on better promises. See Heb. 7:22 and 8:6
In the 'better and superior' New Covenant, Jesus personally suffered all your diseases and infirmities in your place.
He took up our infirmities and carried our diseases. Mtt. 8:17
Why? So that Satan has no legal right to keep sickness on anyone who follows Christ. The only way Satan can put sickness on a Christian is when they doubt their full salvation and redemption through Jesus' Blood.
When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick. Mtt. 8:16
To make it possible for every single believer to be healed;
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law. Gal.3:13
This curse included every sickness and every disease. Deut. 28:61 'Redeemed us' includes every believer in Christ. Do you believe in Christ? If you are sick or infirm, continue reading, the Holy Spirit will inspire faith in your heart through Christ's message, and you too will be healed right now.
Believers in Christ share in the blessing He provided at Calvary when;
Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows. Is. 53:4
It is possible because...
... By his wounds you have been healed. 1 Pe. 2:24
'You' includes every believer. Healing for all was the norm in Christ's ministry. It is what He promised the believing church.
I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. Jn.14:12
All of them were healed is therefore the will of God now, whilst Christ is seated in Heaven, because Christ hasn't changed.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever. Heb. 13:8
All of them were healed would have included you, if you were sick and present on that day in Jerusalem when Peter proclaimed Christ's message. Healing is for you today because God's will has never changed.
Crowds... brought their sick and those tormented by evil spirits, and all of them were healed. Acts 5:16
Freedom from evil spiritual oppression is included in Christ's redemption today. Addictions, sexual sins, suicide, greed, perversions, depression etc. all were defeated by Christ for you.
Notice that in Nazareth, they doubted Christ's message and stunned Him by their unbelief.
He couldn't do any miracles there... because of their unbelief. Mk. 6:5-6
Don't be like the unbelieving Nazarenes. Instead, be like the people of Gennesaret who ran around dragging and carrying the sick folks to Christ. Their faith was put into action.
And all who touched him were healed. Mk. 6:53-56
You can touch Jesus today by your faith in His Word of Promise to heal.
Ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. Everyone who asks receives. Jn. 15:7 and Mtt. 7:8
Everyone includes you when you ask believing.
Healing is for you today because God's will has never changed
