Why am I sick?

I am seeking God with all my heart; why am I sick? I have heard often this question.    I pray for many people, and some are not healed; why? God’s word clearly says He has healed us; it is done.  

“Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.” 1 Peter 2:24

Notice we were healed. Our healing is just as assured as our salvation. When you accept Christ as your savior, you are saved; It is done. Many Christians receive salvation but do not receive healing. We must appropriate it.    If we want healing to manifest, then we need to believe.  

Mark 11:24 says, “Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours”
