In healing prayer and healing work, we are a part of God's holistic healing work. Christians don't worship health. We don't call on God to remove all suffering from life. What we do is ask God to fulfill the divine purposes, and trust God to give us health where it helps and suffering where that is needed. Back to Index.
All healing is, in some way, divine healing.
God, of course. So when body tissue repairs itself and the immune system works, it is doing what God intended it to do. We can also speak of 'medical' healing. But medicine, too, is rooted in the understanding of how physical nature works. It gives a boost to the systems for healing that we already have within us, clearing away roadblocks to restoring health.
