HOW TO PREPARE TO MINISTER IN A HEALING AND MIRACLE SERVICE

Have you ever wondered how great men of God pray and prepare for crusades, healing and miracle services?

Do you see the blind seeing, the deaf hearing and lame walking and wonder, O Lord, can you use me also?

Do you desire to be used mightily of God to rebuke and cast out devils?

Do you desire to be used of God to bring salvation, healing, deliverance and miracles to many?

Do you have a very strong passion to save the lost and be used of God?

If you answered YES! to any of the above questions, then this guide was written with you in mind.

Jesus has called us to heal the sick and cast out devils (mark 16:17-18).

Sadly many believers don’t know how to, neither do they know how to pray and prepare to function in the anointing of the Holy Spirit to do such.

The good news is that how to pray and prepare to minister healing to the sick and cast out devils can be taught. The disciples of Jesus came to Jesus and asked the Lord to teach them how to pray and Jesus went ahead to teach them how to pray (Luke 11:1-3)

The disciples of Jesus saw the way God was using Jesus; they saw the Power, the healings, the miracles and the mighty acts of God in and through Jesus.

They wanted to be used of God the same way and knew that Jesus’ prayer life was the key to having such a mighty ministry of signs, wonders, power, healings and miracles.

The asked Jesus Master, teach us how to pray and Jesus did.

The fact here is this:

IF HOW TO PRAY CAN BE TAUGHT, THEN HOW TO PRAY AND PREPARE TO MINISTER IN A HEALING AND MIRACLE SERVICE CAN BE TAUGHT AS WELL

CHAPTER 1:

UNDERSTANDING THE HEALING MINISTRY

To fully understand the purpose of the healing ministry, we need to understand from the beginning of creation what state of health God intended that man should have from the very beginning of creation and the source of sickness.

THE STATE OF THE EARTH

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. - Genesis 1:1

We must understand and believe that God was the one who created the heavens and the earth. The question that comes to mind is:

WHAT WAS GOD’S ORIGINAL INTENSION FOR CREATING THE EARTH?

DID HE CREATE THE EARTH AND EVERYTHING WITHIN IT TOGETHER WITH SICKNESS?

The Bible answers these questions clearly in a single verse:

"And God saw everything that he had
