Acknowledgements

I would like to acknowledge and thank Rev. Keith Moore for the cover idea and for his diligent and thorough teaching over the years on the subject of divine healing.

Introduction

The principles of divine healing, although not always explicitly stated, are interwoven throughout the Scriptures as an integral part of God’s redemptive plan. According to Romans 5:12, the entrance of sickness and death into the world is attributable to the original sin of Adam. It follows that, just as the fruit of a tree cannot live when the root is destroyed, God’s redemptive solution for the root problem — sin — includes its fruit — sickness.

This “double cure” principle — forgiveness and the remission of sin as well as divine healing — is evidenced by the linking of forgiveness and healing throughout Scripture (Exod. 15:23-26; Num. 21:4-9; Ps.103:3; Isa. 53:4,5; James 5:14-16; 1 Peter 2:24). Jesus answered the question, “Which is easier, to forgive sin or heal disease?” by demonstrating both forgiveness and healing as God’s chosen Redeemer (Luke 5:17-24).

We must remember that the doctrinal basis for divine healing is redemption', therefore divine healing is for all who will receive it! God is no respecter of persons; healing is not reserved for a favored few (Acts 10:34). All of His blessings are a part of the restorative work wrought through Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection (2 Cor. 1:20).

Healing is a part of Christ’s atoning work! Our healing was purchased in our redemption. But all the blessings of God’s great salvation (His redeeming power for the whole man — spirit, soul, and body) are received “by grace through faith” (Eph. 2:8). Jesus said in the context of healing: . . all things are possible to him that believeth” (Mark 9:23).

When we are faithful to believe and act on His promises, He is faithful to perform them (Ps. 57:1,2)! The more specific we are in our believing, the more specific God can be in bringing to pass the resulting answer. First John 5:14,15 says, . . if we ask any thing according to his will . . . we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”

Faith for asking and receiving comes from hearing God’s Word (Rom. 10:17). Therefore specific faith for healing comes from hearing and meditating on God’s healing Word (Ps. 107:20; Prov. 4:20-22). Where the Bible is not specific, we can’t be. But we can and should be as specific in our believing as the Scripture is concerning God’s will. “We having the same spirit of FAITH, according as it is WRITTEN, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also BELIEVE, AND THEREFORE SPEAK (2 Cor. 4:13; see also Acts 26:22; Rev. 22:18,19).

Because the benefits of redemption are received through faith, in order to be fully persuaded concerning God’s will, we must answer the question: “How interested is God in the specific day-to-day needs of our bodies?”

Faith begins where the will of God is known! In this book, Healing for the Whole Man, I hope to demonstrate how God has proven in His Word — His will — the tremendous extent of His concern and care for our physical bodies, as well as His willingness to manifest that concern and care in healing power for any and every part of our bodies that we will believe his redemption includes!

As we meditate on the foundational healing scriptures (Part I), with verses relating to our specific area of need (Part II by parts of the body; Part III by illness), faith can arise to receive that specific healing (Mark 11:22-24; Joshua 1:8; Prov. 4:20-23). May this brief study guide assist you to that end.

As we begin our study in the Word, we must be careful not to .. [handle] the word, of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth . . . [commend] ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God” (2 Cor. 4:2). Neither should we “wrest or twist the Scriptures to our own destruction” (2 Peter 3:16). Rather, we are to do as the Word instructs:

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Tim. 2:15).

In order to rightly divide the Word, we must approach the Scriptures prayerfully, opening our hearts to the Holy Spirit — the Spirit of Truth — who is our Teacher and Guide. We must also keep in mind the following principles of Bible interpretation:

1. Although a scripture will have a specific meaning within its historical context, the spiritual truth of that verse could have varied applications for us today. Second Timothy 3:16 says, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness

2. Revelation is progressive. In other words, glimmers of scriptural truth in Old Testament types and shadows become increasingly clear and bright as we proceed through the Gospels and into the Epistles (Eph. 3:3-5; Col. 1:25,26; John 16:12,13; 1 Peter 1:10-12).

The New Testament is the definitive commentary of the Old Testament, and the Holy Spirit is the ultimate authority on proper context, meaning, and application. Only through the revealing power of the Spirit of Truth, who authored the written Word of Truth, can we receive the knowledge of the truth! (2 Peter 1:19-21; 1 Cor. 2:9-16; Eph. 1:8,9,17,18; Col. 1:9, et al. See also, John chapter 5, especially verses 39 and 40; and John 8, especially verses 43 and 44.)

Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think — infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes or dreams —

To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever. Amen — so be it. Ephesians 3:20,21 (Amplified)

God is glorified and rejoices [John 15:7-11] when we bring forth good fruit of all kinds. Natural children as well as spiritual children are good fruit. Miscarriages and sterility are part of the curse of the Law [Deut. 28:18; Exod. 23:25,26]. Abimelech’s wives, Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, Hannah, and Elizabeth were all healed by God of barrenness!

Part 3, References Pertaining to Specific Conditions and Diseases

NOTE: Deuteronomy 28 contains a listing of the curses of the Law upon the disobedient. Many familiar diseases are called by name and are thereby identified specifically as part of the curse of the Law. Additionally, verse 61 sums up by saying that every sickness and every plague which is not specifically named in this book of the Law is included in the curse, which rests upon those who are disobedient to God’s Law.

But, thanks be to God! Galatians 3:13 says, “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law. . . .” That means healing has been provided for every sickness and disease known to man. Nothing is too hard for Jehovah Rapha (Exod. 15:26; Jer. 32:27)! Deuteronomy 23:5 says, . . the Lord thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee, because the Lord thy God loved thee”\
