Jesus Is Still In The Healing Business

People-Centered Prayer
Daily Provision – Physically

“Give us this day our daily bread.” – Matt. 6:11

The Lord not only paid the price for our sin, but He also made provision for the healing of our bodies. (Isa 53:5).

The prophet Isaiah looked forward to the Cross. The apostle Peter looks back and he says: “who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness; by whose stripes you were healed.” – 1 Pet 2:24.

He is still JEHOVAH-RAPHA, the Lord our Healer and we may, therefore, take all our physical needs to Him.

Are we tired? “But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.” – Isa 40:31.

Are we ill? “Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.” – James 5:14,15.

Whatever our problem, or the cry of those around us, the Lord has made provision and we may ask Him in faith for daily bread to meet that need.
