Cases of Health Issues and
Healing In the
Old Testament Physical Emotional Mental From Healing and Health Main Page Cases of Health Issues
and Healing in the New Testament Be reminded that this world changed kingdoms—from God’s
government to Satan’s government. And God
delivered to Adam the catastrophic news: “Cursed is the earth because of you…” (Genesis
3:17‑19; Proverbs 26:2). Corruption, dis-ease, and death now reigned on
the earth (Romans 5:12). Adam and Eve were now under a cursed, fraudulent
government system. Satan’s kingdom could not freely provide what the human
race needed, including health & wellness. Stress (fear) came. Our health & wellness are limited because of that
impotent kingdom. Death obviously reigns and usually it’s the result of
progressive issues or dis-ease. This perverse system is what we were raised in—it is
‘normal’ for us. This mindset is deeply ingrained in each of us. It even
operates below the conscious level. And because of this cursed world
government system, fear (stress) is now ‘normal.’ But Isaiah 9:6,7 promised this about Y’shua Messiah
(Jesus the Christ): “Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given. And the government shall rest upon his shoulder…
an ever
expanding, peaceful, never ending, fair, and just…kingdom.” GOOD NEWS! Divine Healing and Health Divine
healing and health is a definite act of God through faith in Jesus by the
power of the Holy Spirit, the Word of God, and the precious blood of Christ,
whereby the human body is cured, healed, repaired, delivered from health
issues and their power, and made whole, sound, and healthy. And God’s
government healthcare plan is already paid for; Jesus the Christ paid the
price in full! Cases of Health Issues and
Healing in the Old Testament 1. Barrenness
of the Philistine Women Cause: divine
intervention for Sarah (Gen. 20:1 -7, 18) Cure: prayer (Gen.
20:7, 17) Result: healing (Gen.
20:7, 17) 2. Barrenness

Death Cause:
old age (Gen. 47:27-31; 48:1; 49:33) Cure: none, because of
the divine appointment for all people to die (Heb. Not
long ago the owner of this website personally knew a woman well who was a
widow and healthily lived alone in their home. She was 101 years of age.
Approximately six-weeks before she passed away, her physical body simply
began to give out, and she gave up the ghost without a struggle. This is
similar to the way Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses and many others passed
away. One, therefore, does not have to die of a disease any more
than an apple must fall by disease and worms. It is possible for one to live
in health to a ripe old age and die a natural death. There is no law that
says every person must die of a disease. By faith in God one can live free
from health concerns and live long before natural death. 7. Boils

Main Page What Divine
Healing and Health is Not It is not healing and health by natural remedies, imagination, will power, personal magnetism, metaphysics, spiritualism, immunity from death, presumption, insubordination to God's will, mind over matter, denial of the plain facts of sin, health issues, and disease, or natural healing by inherent laws and creative powers in humankind's body (i.e. our God-given immune systems, endocrine systems, lymph systems, limbic systems, etc.) The plan of God is to end evil and
suffering forever (Exodus 34:6-7; Matthew 13:37-43; I Corinthians
15:24-28; Galatians 6:7-8; 1 Timothy 1:5; Revelation 21-22). The ultimate
purpose of God in all His present dealings with man is to bring him back to
the place where he was before the fall (beloved fellowship) and purge him of
all possibility of failing in the future. “The object and purpose of our
instruction and charge is that all believers would be filled with charity
(love) that comes from a pure heart, and a clear conscience, and genuine
trust (faith).” —1 Timothy 1:5 Thank you Finis Jennings Dake, Dake
