Exodus 15:26 KJV

“And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.”

Isaiah 53:4-5 KJV

“Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses) and carried our sorrows (pains); yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.”

Matthew 8:16-17 KJV

“When evening came, they brought to Him many who were under the power of demons, and He drove out the spirits with a word and restored to health all who were sick.  And thus He fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, He Himself took [in order to carry away] our weaknesses and infirmities and bore away our diseases.”

Luke 13:16 KJV

“And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?”

“When Jesus arrived in Capernaum, a Roman army captain came and pled with him to come to his home and heal his servant boy who was in bed paralyzed and racked with pain.  7 “Yes,” Jesus said, “I will come and heal him.”  8-9 Then the officer said, “Sir, I am not worthy to have you in my home; and it isn’t necessary for you to come.[a] If you will only stand here and say, ‘Be healed,’ my servant will get well!”

I Corinthians 12:7-9 NLT

“A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other. To one person the Spirit gives the ability to give wise advice; to another the same Spirit gives a message of special knowledge. 9 The same Spirit gives great faith to another, and to someone else the one Spirit gives the gift of healing.”

1.         Asking in the name of Jesus.

Acts 3:3-9 KJV

“Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.  4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us. 5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.  6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. 7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. 8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God. 9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God.”

Luke 13:11-13 says:

“And there was a woman who for eighteen years had had an illness caused by a spirit (demon). She was bent double, and could not straighten up at all. 12 When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said to her, “Woman, you are released from your illness.” 13 Then He laid His hands on her; and immediately she stood erect again and she began glorifying and praising God.”

5.         The prayer of agreement.

Matthew 18:19 NLT

“I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you.”

“Father, right now, I bind every hindering spirit, trick, trap, lie and deception the enemy has planned for every person listening hearing my voice or reading my words.  I thank you the Holy Ghost is moving even as these words are being repeated in this prayer of agreement.  We agree that the just-getting-by type of thinking is gone forever.  We agree that healing virtue is flowing over each of us. . .from the top of our heads to the soles of our feet.  In the powerful name of Jesus, we pray.  Hallelujah!  Amen!”

6.         The prayer of binding and loosing.

Matthew 18:18 AMP

“I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whatever you bind [forbid, declare to be improper and unlawful] on earth shall have [already] been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose [permit, declare lawful] on earth shall have [already] been loosed in heaven.”

7.         Taking God’s Word as medicine.

Proverbs 4:20-22 AMP

“My son, pay attention to my words and be willing to learn; Open your ears to my sayings. Do not let them escape from your sight; Keep them in the center of your heart.  For they are life to those who find them, And healing and health to all their flesh.”

“Father, in the name of Jesus, I command this mass to dry up, dissolve or disappear never to return to my body again. . .in any manner, method or location.  I think you that healing virtue flows over me from the top of my head to the soles of my feet.  And, I call this down in the strong, healing name of Jesus.  Hallelujah and amen.”

James 5:14-15 AMP

“Is anyone among you sick? He should call in the church elders (the spiritual guides). And they should pray over him, anointing him with oil in the Lord's name. And the prayer [that is] of faith will save him who is sick, and the Lord will restore him; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.”

1 John 1:9 AMP

“If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just (true to His own nature and promises) and will forgive our sins [dismiss our lawlessness] and [continuously] cleanse us from all unrighteousness [everything not in conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action].”

Mark 11:25-26 AMP

“And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him and let it drop (leave it, let it go), in order that your Father Who is in heaven may also forgive you your [own] failings and shortcomings and let them drop.  But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your failings and shortcomings.”

Psalm 66:18 KJV

“If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.”

1 John 5:14-15 AMP

“14 And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us.  15 And if (since) we [positively] know that He listens to us in whatever we ask, we also know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted us as our present possessions] the requests made of Him.”
