What was Paul’s Thorn In The Flesh
As we dive into this lesson, let’s acknowledge a common challenge in the ministry of healing: certain scriptures seem to drain our faith when we are seeking healing for ourselves or ministering to others. One passage that often creates doubt is Paul’s reference to a “thorn in the flesh.” Many believers interpret this to mean […]
The Holy Spirit Likes to Go Viral
I’m so glad to be back with you as we explore another dynamic aspect of God’s work in our lives. This session may take us a bit beyond the usual topics surrounding healing, but it opens a door into something powerful: the viral nature of the Holy Spirit. Over the years, I’ve noticed an amazing […]
Ministry of Peace
In this lesson, The Ministry of Peace, we’ll dive into one of the most profound gifts we experience through our relationship with Jesus—peace. Often when we pray for healing, people describe feeling a sense of warmth, calm, or profound peace. This isn’t just an emotional response; it’s a sign of God’s presence bringing comfort and […]
Healing of Pain
When people are suffering and request prayer for healing, one of the most common requests is for relief of pain. The good news is that God is not indifferent to our pain. Isaiah 53:4 Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him and […]
If-It-Be-Thy-Will Prayers
This session discusses the common phenomenon of If-it-be-thy-will prayers. Most of us have heard this type of prayer used when praying for someone. We ourselves may have prayed this way. It sounds spiritual, but there is no Biblical basis for such a prayer. According to the New Testament, neither Jesus nor the Apostles ever prayed […]
Words of Knowledge
No one has a greater interest in seeing people made whole than God. In order to help us minister healing effectively, He has given us various spiritual gifts through the Holy Spirit. One very useful gift is the word of knowledge. When we are about to pray for a sick or injured person, we may […]
How to pray for the sick – a simple model
This session offers a simple model for how you can pray for the sick. Of course, this model is not the only way to minister healing, but believers often want to know some way to begin. And since healing is not an equation, neither this model or any other guarantees that healing will take place. […]
Theology of Healing – Warfare Worldview
In this session, we will explore a crucial shift in the theology of healing by examining what’s known as the “warfare worldview” that shaped the early church’s understanding of divine healing. The early believers viewed sickness as part of the enemy’s work—something that Jesus opposed and conquered through His ministry, empowering His followers to do […]

In this session, we’ll examine why some denominations and theological circles believe that spiritual gifts, such as healing, prophecy, and tongues, have ceased, and how that view contrasts with what the Bible actually teaches. We’ll […]
