Before we go further, let’s briefly discuss something important. When you accepted Jesus into your heart, you asked Him to forgive your sins. This is crucial because we cannot enter heaven if we carry sin.

What is Repentance (Forgiveness)?

Repentance means changing your mind. It’s about being honest with God about your sins and desiring to turn away from them. It’s a renewal of your mind so that you no longer want to sin. This is why reading and believing God’s Word is essential—it’s a key step toward a transformed life through God’s power.

James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed and restored. The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power].

• Matthew 6:12: “and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us.”
• Mark 11:25:  “And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”

This is important because a person with sin in their heart cannot enter heaven and, but more importantly, cannot connect with God. Once you’ve accepted Jesus into your heart and asked Him for forgiveness, you have a direct connection to Jesus through the Holy Spirit.

This is significant because, in the Old Testament, God was present in the temple. When Jesus died for our sins, the temple curtain was torn in two, symbolizing that Jesus’ death cleansed anyone who accepts Him as their Savior. Because of this, your body becomes a temple for God, and the Holy Spirit enters your body.

• Luke 23:45-46: “for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Jesus called out with a loud voice, ‘Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.’ When he had said this, he breathed his last.”

Here are some Scriptures to help you on your journey:

God loves you deeply (John 3:16), and with Him by your side, you can face any challenge and embrace the healing and blessings He offers.

Remember: Our God, the Creator of the universe, is almighty. If you stand with Him, who can stand against you? Don’t face your battles alone—walk in faith and fight in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

• Romans 8:31: “… If God is for us, who can be [successful] against us?”
• Matthew 6:12: ” And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.”
• James 1:2-3: “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.
• Philippians 4:6-7: “ Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.”
• 1 Peter 5:6-7: “Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.”
• John 14:27: “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.

Daily prayers for healing:

In Jeremiah 17:14 we hear the cry “heal me Lord, and I will be healed…”, and in Jeremiah 30:17 we hear God say “I will restore your health, I will heal your wounds.” James 5:13 tells us “a prayer offered in faith makes a sick person well.” God cares about our whole being – body, soul, spirit. Whether we are in need of physical, emotional, or spiritual healing – He knows and He cares. Let us pray in God’s will that complete healing is ours. Use these prayers for healing as you seek God’s strength and comfort.

Do you need God’s healing in your life? God isn’t just the one who healed in Bible stories. He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow (Hebrews 13:8). Jehovah Rapha (our Lord who Heals), from Exodus 15:26 and Jesus Christ – who healed the lame, blind, deaf, and diseased in the New Testament – is the same healing God today. He wants the redeemed to pray for their healing as an act of trust and dependence on Him and to know where our ultimate source of healing comes from. While some aspects of our being are healed immediately, others He heals over time as a way of transforming us into Christ’s likeness.
