For many reasons, it can be difficult for us believe the Bible’s promises regarding physical healing. Maybe we’ve been disappointed in the past or misunderstood biblical teaching on the subject. Or perhaps we simply don’t believe God will perform miracles today as He did in biblical times.

In this message, Dr. Stanley teaches that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Just as physical healing played a significant role in Jesus’ earthly ministry, it is still important to Him today. Dr. Stanley uses personal examples of modernday miracles and points to numerous biblical passages that emphasize God’s willingness to supply physical restoration.

Dr. Stanley also addresses:

The role of faith in healing
The importance of responding correctly to illness in our lives
How fellow believers should be an integral part of our healing
How God sometimes uses affliction to capture our attention
Why we don’t experience healing every time we ask for it
How to respond when God doesn’t answer our prayers for healing

This wellbalanced, thoughtful sermon will not only increase your faith for healing but also motivate you to continue to seek the Lord when He doesn’t choose to heal.

This message is part of the series “The Promises of God.”
