A Word from SidI have learned that healing and faith are mysteriesfor most Believers. Although there are many bookson both subjects, they still remain perplexing. Thisshould not be!Faith—The Key to Experiencing Heaven’s RewardHebrews 11:6 tells us,But without faith it is impossible to pleaseHim, for he who comes to God must believethat He is, and that He is a rewarder ofthose who diligently seek Him.Without faith, we cannot please God! For us toreceive anything in the Kingdom, from salvationonward, we need faith. If you believe in Jesus, theMessiah, you have faith. The question is how areyou using it?7Healing Scriptures 9/15.indd 712/9/14 9:45 AM

Faith is not mental assent. It is an action basedon the fact that “It is finished” at the cross. Biblefaith believes the healing is there before you see it.God is a rewarder of those who diligently seekhim. He wants to reward His people with healing!The Messiah paid a high price so that you couldwalk in divine health and wholeness. The key toexperiencing the power of Heaven in your life islearning how to put your faith to work!Healing—The Will of God Revealed Throughthe MessiahWe read in Acts 10:38 about how “God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and withpower, who went about doing good and healing8The Healing ScripturesHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 812/9/14 9:45 AM

all who were oppressed by the devil, for God waswith Him.”If Jesus went around doing good and healingall, this shows us that healing is God’s will.Everything that Jesus did shows us Who God is,what He is like, and what His will is. Healing is God’swill for your life!My Discovery—The Bible’s Supernatural BlueprintJesus revealed normal. Even though healing andfaith have become mysterious to many Believers—perhaps because of misunderstanding, misuse, controversy, etc.—healing is normal, normalas defined by the Bible. This book is designed tohelp you experience Heaven’s normal in your life,for your friends and family, and even, to see God’shealing power released through you to touchothers.I started my own research into the subjects ofhealing and faith over 40 years ago. Where did Ibegin? Studying the Scriptures. It didn’t take longbefore I was overwhelmed by the fact that it isGod’s will to heal sickness and disease. First, I listed all the faith and healing Scriptures that I could find.A Word from SidHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 9912/9/14 9:45 AM

I followed by personalizing the verses thatwere left. Finally, I started meditating on them.This discovery helped me create a Bible-basedblueprint that will help you practically experiencethe supernatural healing power of God in your life.I recently spoke to an orthodox Jewish womanwho became a believer in Jesus through one ofmy Jewish evangelistic books, They Thought forThemselves. Her only teaching was our televisionshow, It’s Supernatural! She was shocked when Itold her some Christians believe healing stoppedwhen the Apostles died.Miracles have not stopped. God still healstoday.Your Transformation Starts NowThis book contains my personal list of healingScriptures. As you meditate on the promises inthis book and on the two available interactiveaudio CDs, they will begin to drop from yourhead to your heart. Transformation starts to takeplace. What used to be a thought in your mind isnow becoming a belief system in your heart that10The Healing ScripturesHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 1012/9/14 9:45 AM

completely changes the way you see and respondto sickness. You will begin to believe with allyour heart. Faith and healing will no longer be amystery!A Word from SidHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 111112/9/14 9:45 AM

Chapter 1The Most Important HealingIn the beginning, God created the heavens andthe earth. And all was perfect.There was Adam and there was Eve. There werethe animals. There was perfect harmony among allcreation. There was uninhibited communicationbetween God and man.And then sin entered the world through Adamand Eve’s decision to disobey God’s command.And when sin entered the world, it brought with itdeath. And with death came sickness.Today, there are many forms and manifestations of sickness. There is sickness of the mind,sickness of the heart, sickness of the body.But most important of all, there is a sickness ofthe soul. And everyone, from birth, is born withthis sickness. It is a direct result of Adam and Eve’sdisobedience. In fact, it IS the very thing that13Healing Scriptures 9/15.indd 1312/9/14 9:45 AM

entered the world when Adam and Eve disobeyedGod. It is sin.We are all born with the sickness of sin. Andmore important than any physical, mental or emotional healing you could ever receive is the healingof the soul.But the best part? You can be healed of sinright this very moment because of what Jesus,God’s Son, accomplished with His death andresurrection.It doesn’t take a special formula. It doesn’t haveto be a mystical moment. No one else has to layhands on you. This is between you and God.All it takes is a simple prayer from your heart toGod’s, like this:God, I confess that I have sinned. I havedisobeyed your commandments and I havenot lived a holy life. I repent. I ask you tofill me with your presence. I believe Yeshua(Jesus) is your Son and that you sent him tobe my sacrifice. He died and rose again andwith it, conquered death, and I place mytrust in Him for my eternal salvation. Healmy soul sickness. Free me from the prison ofsin. Amen.14The Healing ScripturesHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 1412/9/14 9:45 AM

If you prayed that prayer (or something likeit) you have been healed of your sickness ofthe soul. You are no longer bound by sin. You areno longer part of this world. And best of all, God’spromises to His children (believers who haveaccepted Jesus like you just did when you prayed)apply to YOU.This book is about God’s promises. It’s aboutpraying His Word over your life and having faith inHis incredible power.Don’t treat this book as a one-way conversation. That’s not what it’s for. This book is to getyou to have a conversation with God – speakingto Him in His own words, which apply to you as abeliever.God spoke words and created the world andThe Most Important HealingHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 151512/9/14 9:45 AM

everything in it. There is unlimited power in HisWord (the Bible). And when you begin confessingand believing His promises nothing will be impossible for you.*People ask me, after over 40 years of studyinghealing, “What is one thing you wish you knew 40years ago?”I wish I understood how faith operates whenyou do not get your healing immediately. It is clearin the Bible but I had scales over my eyes thatblinded me to the truth for many years.Mark 11:23-24 says, “For assuredly, I say to you,whoever says to this mountain (or says to theirsickness), ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’16The Healing ScripturesHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 1612/9/14 9:45 AM

and does not doubt in his heart, but believesthose things he says will be done, he will havewhatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whateverthings you ask when you pray, believe that you receive (Greek ‘take’) them, and you will have them”(NKJ, personalized).You must take the promises of God before yousee them. This is the difference between a healingand a miracle. A miracle is an instant healing and ahealing is a gradual miracle.The promises of God are like seeds in the natural realm. Once the seeds are planted, as long asyou do not dig them up and as long as you get ridof the weeds, you do not only hope they will grow,you know they will! But we are often prone to digging up the seeds of His promises or letting weedsstrangle our faith in them. We dig up the seeds ofGod’s promises by agreeing with our symptomsand not the Word of God. We let weeds strangleour faith in His promises by allowing things likeunforgiveness (Mark 11:25-26) and other unrepented sin to take root in our lives.Having faith like the Bible describes is an evenstronger type of faith than believing before yousee. You must aggressively take your healing nomatter how long it takes to get from the invisibleworld to the visible world. Jesus says it like this inThe Most Important HealingHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 171712/9/14 9:45 AM

Matthew 11:12, “And from the days of John theBaptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffersviolence, and the violent take it by force” (NKJ). Inother words, the battle is in your mind. You mustviolently cast down every thought or imaginationthat is contrary to the Word of God. This does notmean you deny symptoms. You are to deny thesymptoms the right to stay and have a foothold inyour life. Get forceful and command them to leave.Symptoms caused by the devil will stay arounduntil they know you will not give up!By faith, call those things that are not as if theywere: “ God calls those things which do notexist as though they did” (Romans 4:17, NKJ). Thisis not just positive thinking. As you will learn bygoing through this book, meditating on God’sWord is more than just saying words.Meditating on God’s Word means speaking intoexistence His own promises from His own Word.It is not a ritual – it is truly believing in your heartthe promises you are confessing.*I had the privilege of knowing Kathryn Kuhlman and seeing her minister. She had the greatestmiracle ministry of the 20th century. She prophesied that after she died there would be a greatoutpouring of God’s Spirit. This third Great Awak18The Healing ScripturesHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 1812/9/14 9:45 AM

ening would be so powerful that everyone in ahospital would be healed.I see this and even greater. I see creative miracles where people will receive new limbs andbody parts. You and I will be alive to be used inthis Great Awakening that is about to be pouredout on this planet. And we won’t just be observing. God will move through us to bring it from theinvisible world into the visible world.The supernatural power of heaven is about topour out on this earth like never before. We arecoming into a time in history where the greatermiracles will be common (John 14:12).But always remember this: You were healed ofthe ultimate sickness (the sickness of sin) whenyou chose to place your faith in Jesus and believeThe Most Important HealingHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 191912/9/14 9:45 AM

in Him for your salvation. Over 2,000 years agoHe took all sins, all sickness and all burdens uponHimself on the cross to death.Then He rose again.20The Healing ScripturesHealing Scriptures 9/15.indd 2012/9/14 9:45 AM

Chapter 2How to Meditate On Scripture“Meditate” in the Hebrew language means “tospeak or mutter.” Therefore, the Jewish way tomeditate is to speak out loud the Words of God.When meditating on Scripture, I do the following:Psalm 91:1 [Personalizing]“He who dwells ” [Unpersonalized] becomes “I dwell ”[Personalized]1) Personalize the verse.2) Visualize yourself doing what theverse says.3) Speak the verse out loud.Psalm 91:1 [Descriptive Wording] “I dwell, [I actually breatheand live inhaling the rarefied airof heaven] in the secret place ofthe Most High.”4) Add descriptive wording.21Healing Scriptures 9/15.indd 2112/9/14 9:45 AM

As you will learn, when you meditate on God’sWord the Jewish way, you will not only be speaking the words aloud, but actually believing themin your heart. Pray out loud to your mountain(symptoms) and then act on what you believe!Unless you really know Jesus, meditating onScripture will just be a religious exercise. To obtainexperiential knowledge of God you must believeHe sent Jesus to die for your sins and confess Himout loud as your Lord and Savior and a
