The Holy Spirit, The Gifts, Gifts of Healings (1Cor. 12:7-11):

The Holy Spirit, The Gifts, Gifts of Healings (1Cor. 12:7-11): The gifts of healings are manifested for the supernatural healing of sickness and disease without any natural source or means. Most of us basically understand the subject of healing. Healings were, of course, in priminence, in Jesus' ministry as He walked on the earth. 

Jesus had a healing ministry, and He also gave authority to His disciples to heal the sick (Matt. 10:8). Healing is also included in the Great Commission Jesus gave to the church. (mark 16:18) I want to emphasize the supernatural character of the gifts of healings. The gifts of healings have nothing to do with medical science or human learning. Now don't get me wrong, I believe in medical science, and I believe in doctors treating people. If that was God's way of healing people then doctor ought not to charge, because the Bile says, freely ye have received, freely give (Matt. 10:8). But the healing that is supernatural doesn't come by diagnosis or by prescribing treatment. Divine healing comes by laying on of hands, anointing with oil, or sometimes just by speaking a word, just a few examples. There are three verses in 1Cor. 12, that Paul mention the gifts of healings, you're find them in verse 9, 28, and 30. 1Cor. 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the Gifts of Healings byb the same Spirit. 28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then Gifts of Healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues... 30 Have all the Gifts of Healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? I want you to notice that this is the only gift, besides tongues, that is plural. Now the Bible doesn't specifically say, but there are a few opinions which I believe are well-founded. It may be that there are gifts of healings because there are different kinds of diseases and one gift wouldn't heal every kind of disease. There are instances where ministers have healed certain kinds of diseases, but fail to heal all. In the ministry of Jesus, every manner of sickness and every manner of disease were healed, because Jesus had the Spirit without measure. (Matt. 9:35) Now I want to get an understanding in all this, if there is no gift of the Spirit in manifestation, people can always be healed and set free based on the Word of God. The Bible says it's the anointing, or the power of God that breaks the yoke (Isa. 10:27) The anointing is the Word of God. Whenever the Spirit of God is moving, it's a lot easier to receive. Tomorrow I will finish this lesson up with Ministering by the Gifts of Healings. Be Bless and may God continue to bless you and your families.
