IV FROM JESUS WITH LOVE / My Healing Touch

introduction
From the day we are born till the day we die, we are all
susceptible to sickness and disease. As young children we
instinctively look to and trust our parents to pull us through,
but sooner or later we find that all their love, concern, and
experience can take the healing process only so far. Then
as we get older we learn to appreciate our body’s amazing
ability to overcome and recover from sickness, and we depend
on that. But eventually we each find ourselves in a situation
where that’s not enough either. Who do we turn to for help
then?—Doctors? God? Does God even want to get involved in
our personal health problems? If so, what can we expect from
Him, and what does He expect from us?
Healing is a very personal experience. Not only is each person

different, but so is every illness and so are the surrounding
circumstances. Moreover, healing usually involves both
physical and spiritual factors. Many people who seek healing
focus on the physical while ignoring the spiritual, and a few
become so focused on the spiritual that they forget to correct
the physical causes. How do we find the proper balance?
Some of the spiritual principles involved are basic and

universal—believing that divine intervention is possible, finding
God’s purpose in allowing the illness, doing whatever He may
FROM JESUS WITH LOVE / My Healing Touch 1

require in each particular situation, claiming His promises, and
continuing to trust Him even when the answer isn’t immediate
or what we expect—but God also takes other factors into
consideration, such as the person’s spiritual maturity and
knowledge of His ways.
Many people don’t realize that from God’s viewpoint, healing

of the body is not always the primary or only goal. Often the
greater need is for healing of the spirit. To accomplish that,
He sometimes puts us in a position where He can better get
through to us on the spiritual level. Physical afflictions are one
of the most effective means He has of doing that, as they force
us to stop long enough to listen to what He has to say.
Yet another factor is that our own spirits aren’t the only ones
involved. The Bible tells us that a fierce, continual battle is
taking place in the unseen spiritual realm that surrounds us.
It’s a battle of good against evil for influence over our hearts and
minds, which in turn control our actions and destinies. As God
and His heavenly forces war against the Devil and his demons,
the battle spills over into our physical realm and involves us. “We
do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,
against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”1
One way that the Devil and his demons attack us is through our
health, so it’s important that we keep our spiritual defenses
strong in order to help ward off sickness, and also that we pray
about possible spiritual causes when we do get sick.

Ephesians 6:12
2 FROM JESUS WITH LOVE / My Healing Touch

Even if you try to approach healing from a purely physical angle,
there is no black-and-white formula that applies in every case.
For example, the question of whether or not to seek professional
help in the form of doctors, medicines, treatments, therapies,
or other physical means is nearly always a multi-faceted one,
and again every case is different. A course of action that may
be right in one case may be totally wrong in another. This is true
of special diets, medicines, surgery, radiology, chemotherapy,
chiropractic, or any other procedure or treatment. The world
is filled with books telling people what to do or not do to get
healed. Some approaches sometimes work and sometimes
don’t. Many contradict each other. Who’s to say which approach
would be best in your case? Which expert will you trust?
Jesus is the Great Physician. He knows more about your body

and how to fix it than all the other doctors put together. Not only
that, but He also understands and is concerned about the whole
person—body, mind, and spirit. He sometimes uses doctors
and treatments as His instruments to facilitate healing, but He’s
the only one who has real healing power. No healing is possible
without His involvement at some level, so why not involve Him in
every case, from the beginning, and at every level? He would like
nothing better, as He explains in the following pages.
So when you need healing, put yourself first and foremost in His
loving hands. If He chooses to heal you through supernatural
means alone, that’s within His power. If He chooses to enlist
the help of doctors, He wants to head the team. If He chooses

to heal you instantly, that’s within His power too. If He chooses
to let you suffer physically for a while so your spirit can be
strengthened, that’s His prerogative and He does so in love. If
He chooses to heal you through death—by taking you to Heaven,
where there is no more sickness, sorrow, or suffering—this is
also part of His great unfailing love.
In any case, His goal is not temporary physical healing today so

you can get sick again tomorrow. He could fix you a million times
and your mortal body would just keep breaking till its dying day.
His goal is to help you be as happy, healthy, and fulfilled as
possible in this life, while preparing you for the next. He has
a design for your life, and working with you through sickness
is one way He has of helping you conform to His design. More
than anything, He wants you to be all you can be.
The following messages from Jesus don’t contain everything

He has to say to you about healing in general, or cover every
situation you will ever face. There’s a lot more where this came
from! Jesus wants to open a personal hotline between you and
Him so He can give you personal answers to your questions and
problems. You, too, can hear directly from Jesus. He will speak
to anyone who believes in Him, sincerely asks Him to speak,
and then accepts by faith that what they “hear” in their mind is
truly Him speaking. Receiving and following His guidance is the
single most important step towards good health.
Open your life and heart to receive His healing touch.

Getting
started
I LOV E YOU
—Y E S, YOU !
FAITH for My supernatural healing
begins with faith in My unfailing,
unlimited, unconditional love for you
personally, so let’s start there.
If you feel distant from My love, that’s not

My love. If you think that you’ve failed Me

you’re mistaken.—I see straight through every need. I died for you, and now I live
to your heart of hearts, and I love you just for you. I will do anything for you!

I long to comfort‚ to soothe, and to pour
on you My healing balm, to ease your
worries, your fears, your frustrations,
and to dry your every tear. My love is
reaching out to you right now. I will fill
your heart to overflowing with My love.
You have only to ask. Anywhere, any
time, every minute of the day or night
I’ll be there to prove My love in some
way. When you feel confusion, I will
give you peace. When you feel fearful, I
will comfort your heart. When you’re
besieged by doubts, I will give you faith.
When you feel stressed, I will bring relief.
When you feel lost and alone, I’m right
there. When all seems dark and stormy,
I will be your shining light. In big ways
and small ways, I’m always there, ready,
willing, and waiting to shower you with
love. I will never let you down, and that’s
a promise. Whenever you need a special
boost of that love‚ just call on Me.

E V E R- P RE SE N T HE L P
I DON’T want you to look at this sickness as something
that I stand back and watch you go through—you there
and Me here. It’s never been like that, really, and I
certainly don’t want it to be like that now.
My heart breaks to see you in pain—not only the physical

pain, but also the mental and spiritual attacks that come
with it, the thoughts of helplessness and hopelessness,
the despair. Please believe that I never allow anything
to happen to you, one of My children who loves Me,
that’s not in some way for your good. Hang on to that
promise.
I’m right here. I know it hurts, and I feel for you. I’m
right here by your side. No, I’m not even that distant; I
surround you, covering all the sore spots, soothing as
only I can, and I won’t leave you for an instant.
In times of pain, I will bring sweet relief. In times of

distress, I will be your comforter. In times of doubt, I will
fan your spark of faith. In your darkest hour, I will be
your guiding light. In times of torment, I will be your safe
haven. In times of emptiness, I will be your all-in-all.

“IN SICK NE S S A ND IN HE A LT H …”

I TOLD My fi rst followers, “All authority has been given to Me in
heaven and on earth” and “whatever you ask in My name, that I will do for
you.”1 Those promises have inspired millions concerning My ability to
answer prayer. Now all that power is waiting for you and can be activated
through your prayers. There is absolutely no limit to what I can do!
I can heal anything. I can even restore life and health to someone who
has died! I raised people from the dead while I trod the dusty roads of
Palestine two thousand years ago, and My power has not diminished
since. If I could do that, surely I can heal whatever’s wrong with you!
I can do the impossible, and I delight in difficult cases. I want to prove

that to you. I can also do anything you ask of Me, if you believe. I want
to prove that too. I can bring full health and strength to your weakened
body. I can bring perfect peace and rest to your troubled mind. I can
bring joy and light to your aching heart. I can do all these things and
more, if you believe.
My healing power is greater than any medicine or treatment that any

doctor could prescribe, so call on Me and I will pour My healing balm
upon you, according to your request and according to your faith. Expect
a miracle!

SOMETIMES illness or injury is due to a natural
cause or carelessness on your part. There are other
times, however, when I allow this because I know it is
the quickest way to get your attention and the best way
to get you back on course. I never like to see you suffer,
but like a good parent, I know that you must sometimes
go through unpleasant experiences in order to achieve a
greater good—to learn an important lesson or to protect
you from something worse. When you’re affl icted, you
have lots of time to think and pray, so I can help you put
things in proper perspective.
Whatever the case or surrounding circumstances, I always

want to turn it into something good for you. I can bring
about beautiful changes through it as you learn to know
and love Me better and gain depth of spirit—new maturity,
new understanding, new grace, new faith, new wisdom,
and much, much more. Ask Me what you can learn from
this experience. As you do, I will be there to encourage,
instruct, and help you through it, because I love you.
Though this time of illness may not seem like something

good at the beginning, it is the path to personal progress.
Don’t fight it, but rather look forward to the good results I
will bring about through it.

James 1:22–25

W ISHF UL T HINK ING ? — OR E X PEC TA NCY ?
A LOT of people pray to be healed or for this or that, and
then are disappointed when I don’t answer. Why don’t I answer?
Often it’s because the people praying don’t really expect Me to.
Their prayers are really no more than wishes—vague, wistful,
“wouldn’t-it-be-nice?” thoughts. Wishes aren’t the same as
prayers because they lack the all-important element of faith,
which is demonstrated by expectancy.
Having faith for healing means that you not only believe that
I can heal you and that it’s My will, but you expect Me to. And
because you expect results, you can be very defi nite and fi rm in
your prayer. You can point to the promises in My Word that say
I can and want to and will heal, count it a done deal, and thank
Me for the miracle, even before you see it.
The main thing that limits My power coming through is the

level of your faith, and that’s measured by your expectancy—
what you’re sure I’m going to do in response to your prayers.
It pleases Me greatly when you boldly make your request,
because that shows that you not only realize you need My help,
but also that you’re confident that I can and will work on your
behalf. I reward full-of-faith prayers because they show that
you’re depending on Me for your healing, and that you believe I
will do the miracle for you.

MANY people use “faith” and “belief”
interchangeably, but there’s a difference—
and it’s an important difference when
it comes to obtaining healing and other
answers to prayer. Belief can be passive.
In other words, it’s possible to believe in
something without ever doing anything even better: I’ve made promises to you
about it. But faith is active. It acts on what in My Word that you can cash in for

af ter word
If you haven’t yet experienced the kind of love expressed in

these messages from Jesus, it may be that you haven’t yet
received His gifts of eternal love and life by accepting Him as
your Savior. Jesus waits humbly for you to invite Him into your
life. He says, “Behold, I stand at the door [of your heart] and
knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will
come in” (Revelation 3:20). You can receive Him right now by
sincerely praying the following:
Dear Jesus, thank You for dying for me so I can have eternal life.
Please forgive me now for every wrong and unloving thing I have
ever done. Wash away all that, and help me to do better. I need
Your love to fill and satisfy my heart. I want the life of heavenly
happiness You have for me—here and now, and in Heaven
hereafter. I open the door of my heart and ask You, Jesus, to
come in. Thank You for hearing and answering my prayer, and
thank You for helping me share Your love and be a force for good
in the lives of others. Amen.
