Discussion
Jesus is the great physician and the mighty healer. He paid for all sins and all healing at the cross. All through the Bible, there are accounts of Jesus healing all types of sickness and disease and conditions: Leprosy, paralysis, blindness, deafness, muteness, seizures, issues of blood, and even death. In (Matthew 17:14-18), Jesus heals a demon-possessed boy. He had seizures and would often fall into the fire or water. Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and he was healed at that moment. Although some sicknesses are demonic or from bloodline curses, not all of them are. Some can be from environmental exposure or hazards, or from many other sources. The origin of sickness or disease doesn’t matter. Jesus is always the solution.
Prayer
Jesus, I thank you for dying on the cross for our sins and for our healing. I repent and renounce and break every generational curse of sickness and disease. I repent and renounce all physical disorders, mental illness, and all diagnoses of disease. I break every word, curse, or diagnosis from doctors or test results and I call on the resurrection power of Jesus, the same power that raised Christ from the dead! I ask you, Jesus, to wash clean every negative diagnosis spoken over me. I command all sickness, all disease, all cancer, and mental disorders to be removed and cast into the pit. I declare that I am healed by the finished work that Jesus did on the Cross.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
