Faith Comes By Hearing The Word of God

I would like to share with you a little testimony and hope that it will encourage you and increase your faith to read God’s word out loud. Healing is for today. God still heals. We have to do our part and God always does His part.

My own personal Testimony, to God be All the Glory: After coughing for over a year and I mean to tell you it was chronic. We had gone to my doctor for one thing, but he found something else. He listened to my chest and he told me I needed a chest x-ray because of he heard something unusual in my lungs. When he saw the x-ray, he said he saw something. He also said we will keep an eye on it and in a month we’ll take another x-ray to be sure it’s nothing. Of course there was concern. Many of you were praying, thank you.

God gave me a dream about the blood of Jesus. When I woke, my coughing is all but gone. A friend (Misty Moon) also told me about a lady that had an incurable condition how she began to read every scripture on healing and after years of horrible suffering, Jesus healed her. The doctors had given up on her. But in one last desperate deed she reached for her unread Bible and began to read the word of God and Jesus healed her. She marked every scripture on healing in her bible.

Why is it, that we always “try,” Jesus last? Maybe it’s just that we really don’t believe, until we see that nothing else is going to work. At any rate…praise the Lord we do reach out to him…and He is always faithful.

After reading her story, I Googled scriptures on healing and found the following website. It is a list of scriptures on healing. I sat at my computer and read every one of these scriptures out loud and my faith began to come alive in me. As I kept reading chill bumps ran up and down my whole body. I was strengthened and renewed. I was filled with new faith, more faith. God was giving me His assurance by hearing His word, that, I am healed in Jesus name.

Sometimes Jesus heals instantly and sometimes it is a process. I know by His word that He put His confidence in me, that I am healed. Amen.

Print the following scriptures and read them out loud. As we know, Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God! When you read out loud your ears hear what is being said and Faith comes alive.

It is not magic, or mind over matter that heals us. It is the Anointed Word of God being heard and received into our being that heals us. Jesus spoke the Word. Jesus is the Word. Believe and do not doubt. Simply read the words out loud and let his Word heal you. Amen!

God is not a microwave God. Read and keep on reading. Read with purpose and determination and conviction. Read His Word out loud every day until the words get down deep into your heart and soul and you know without a doubt you are healed. Let Faith come alive in you in Jesus name.

Jesus, I ask that as we read your word and let it go deep within our spirit that Faith will come alive and quicken us, so that we will be healed in your name, I ask. Amen!

Read these scriptures, print them out and put them into practice!

(I didn’t read the Book, chapter and verse all I did was read each verse one after the other. It is amazing!!!)

(These are taken from the King James Version and may sound a little strange to some. You can look up another translation if preferred. The most important thing is that you read them out loud.)

• Exodus 15:26: If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.

• Psalm 103:1-5: Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.

• Matthew 15:30-31: And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus’ feet; and he healed them: insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.

• Matthew 18:18-19: Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah’s womb: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

• Galatians 3:13-14, 29: Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

• Ephesians 6:10-17: Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them]. Practice what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and model your way of living on it, and the God of peace (of untroubled, undisturbed well-being) will be with you.
