DIVINE
HEALING
TODAY
Pastor Alton "Don" Billingsley discusses
DIVINE HEALING TODAY IN THE CHURCH OF GOD
Many today in God's Church pray for healing. But they have not been healed. They pray again. And again! But there is no improvement. What is wrong? We have learned that God does heal! In the past we have experienced incredible miracles! Many were healed in God's Church in the past. But why so few now?
Cancer and various forms of illness seem almost rampant throughout God's Church today. Obviously God had not changed -- He is the same from eternity to eternity. He has promised to heal, and His Word is SURE! The fault is not with God. It must be with us.
But where?
God is our Divine Healer and promises to heal all who come to Him in faith having been anointed and prayed for by the elders of God’s True Church while accepting the sacrifice of the broken body of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of physical sins involved in the illness of health problems which then makes possible physical healing (Isaiah 53:3-5; I Peter 2:24; James 5:14). At the same time, members are not discouraged in seeking medical help to aid their healing which sometimes requires hospital care. Neither do we discourage anyone from having blood transfusions.
WHERE is your faith and WHO is your God?
Your faith is either in Almighty God, the ONLY true Healer and Protector, or in the GOD OF MEDICINE (II Kings 1:1-4), drugs and vaccines.
Some think healing was only to prove JESUS was the CHRIST -- the promised MESSIAH -- but not for this day and age. Is the day of miracles PAST? We read in the New Testament that when Jesus Christ was on earth 1900 years ago, He HEALED THE SICK. And it seems there are so MANY MORE sick today than there were then. Well, is the day of miracles past? WHAT ABOUT this thing we call divine healing?
A doctor can't heal! And any honest doctor will admit it. And none of his drugs, or medicines, or knives can heal. There is no healing in any of them. There is only one kind of healing, and that is healing directly by the almighty God. There is no other healing!

"Is any sick among you? 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 shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him." (James 5:14-15).
For The Christian TODAY!
After the New Testament Church was started, the apostles and evangelists continued to HEAL THE SICK as well as preach the gospel!
Almost immediately after the Day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit came, Peter and John, in the name of Jesus Christ, healed the cripple, lame from birth. (Acts 3:1-11). As a result, they were thrown into prison, but after they were released they met with the other disciples and prayed earnestly to God, saying: "And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, by stretching forth thine hand to HEAL." "And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spake the Word of God with boldness," (Acts 4:29-31).
Afterward so many were healed, that even Peter's shadow passing over the sick resulted in their healing, THRU GOD'S POWER. (Acts 5:15). Those who came to these ministers of Christ, for healing by PRAYER to GOD, "were HEALED, every one." (Acts 5:16).
Philip went down to Samaria, and the sick were HEALED! (Acts 8:5-7). Thru Paul's ministry, God healed the sick. The demand on his time became so great, and many at a distance whom Paul was unable to visit, wanted healing, and so God honored a SPECIAL MEANS -- Paul anointed and prayed over pieces of cloth -- handkerchiefs and aprons -- and sent them to these requesting prayer for healing, and THEY WERE HEALED! (Read of it in Acts 19:11-12).
Now God is the SAME today -- and hundreds today are being healed by that very method, given to us in the word of God! In my office we hold a daily prayer service. All letters requesting special prayer are brought in, and members of my staff join me in interceding with God for each one. All who ask prayer for HEALING are given special consideration and prayer. And, since it is impossible for me to visit each of these in their own homes, I anoint a handkerchief in each case, following the Apostle Paul's example, and this is mailed to the one who is sick.
Contact Mr. Billingsley today and ask to be put on the Church's Prayer Request List and receive your anointed cloth.
