A man with coronary artery disease went to a healing rally but was not healed. He still had severe, recurrent chest pain. But after undergoing open heart surgery, he showed remarkable improvement. On the other hand, a lady with advanced cancer––pronounced incurable by doctors––miraculously recovered through healing ministry.*
- Affirm and declare by faith that “by His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).
- Let the elders of the church pray for them (James 5:14).
- Seek to be ministered to by those endowed with the gift of healing (1 Corinthians12:28,30).
- Remove hindrances to healing––unconfessed sin, unbelief.
- Seek miraculous healing and medical treatment. These options are not mutually exclusive.
- Wait upon God.
- Acknowledge His sovereignty. Commit the results to God.
- When miraculous healing does not occur, do not put the blame on the sick.
- Be open-minded about miraculous healing without medical intervention.
- Don’t try to figure it out––God’s ways are beyond us.
- His peace and presence will comfort us when all else fails.

A very balanced teaching. A lot of Christians don't understand this area of understanding. Thank you!
