People are double-minded when they flow back and forth between God's promises and man's opinions.

We must be tenacious about receiving our healing.

Tenacity could also be defined as "resistance to flow".

Many people "flow" with whatever others say or whatever circumstances say, rather than what God's Word says.

We have to be tenacious [stubborn] if we are going to live in God's best; we must be stubborn in our stand on God's Word.

The power in God's written Word heals us as we hear it, believe it, and act upon it in faith.

Jesus doesn't dwell among us today in the flesh, but we still have the written Word.

When we set ourselves to continually hear the Word, our faith will grow.

Hearing is the biggest factor in changing the course of our lives.

All throughout the Bible, we find a direct connection between hearing and healing.

We must be convinced that God wants us well.

Then reach out in faith for our miracle!

God's power is always available to His children.

It's just a matter of learning how to connect to the source of power by faith.

It's our faith that releases God's power to perform miracles in our lives.

Our faith + God's power = Healing

We are faith children of a faith God.

We can and do believe we receive our healings.

We should be able to receive our healings just like the the people in the gospels that Jesus healed.

It should be easier, we're full of the life, nature and ability of God.

We are a part of the family of God.

Jesus told us, "May Father and I will come and make our abode with you."

They live on the inside of us as born-again believers through the presence of the Holy Spirit.

We are filled with God's healing power.

God's power heals all who come to Him in faith.

Our faith releases His healing power in our lives

Our faith and His power makes us whole.

A high price was paid for our health and we must refuse to go without it.

We know what is ours and by faith we must not quit until it's manifested.

We need to realize that God has provided healing for us and make a bold stand of faith.

We need to set our wills in action by saying, "Healing is mine and I'm not quitting until it's manifested."

When we get that stubborn and tenacious in our faith, we'll see results.

Sometimes people don't set their wills into action as they try to get healed.

They only hope and pray that their faith works.

And if they don't receive their healing in a certain amount of time, the let loose of their faith instead of holding it fast.

"Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt."
Matthew 15:28

Jesus didn't say to her, "Be unto thee as God wills"; no, He said "Be unto thee even as thou wilt".

This woman was involved.

Jesus called healing the children's bread.

We qualify for that bread because we are children of God.

We don't need to beg for it; we receive it because it already belongs to us!

We have been grafted into God's family through the shed blood of Jesus Christ.

Through the new birth, we are now new creatures in Christ, the children of God.

"But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name."
John 1:12

We are the children! Healing is ours!

"Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God. . . . "
1 John 3:1

Under the old covenant, Jesus called healing "the children's bread."

The children were the Jews of the house of Israel.

Now, under the new covenant which is built on better promises, both Jews and Gentiles are the children of God.

We must hang on to God's Word with tenacity until our healing manifests.

We can't give up because God's Word works.

Most of us would have given up, but not the woman in Matthew 15:25-28 who was looking to Jesus to heal her daughter.

First Jesus ignored her.
Then He tells his disciples, I'm not sent to help her.
Then He tells her, It's not right to take the children's bread and give it to dogs. Jesus called her a dog.
She continued to worship Him and ask.
She told Jesus, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
Jesus had taken this woman to the limits and she passed.
Her faith turned His power loose and her daughter was healed.

Matthew 15:25-28
" Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour."

The written Word is God's word to us.

We believe, we receive and we go our way praising and thanking God for our answers.

We have great faith because we take God at His word.

Jesus said, "When you pray, believe the answer has been granted to you and you will have it."

Great faith always takes God at His Word.

That's why Jesus said, "When you pray, believe the answer has been granted to you and you will have it."
Mark 11:24

Whatever Jesus and His Word has said regarding God's promises, we are to believe Him and take Him at His Word.

We don't need goose bumps or burning bushes to believe the word of God, just trust.
