FAITH BUILDING HEALING SCRIPTURES:
Read my personal testimony of miraculous healing at the end of this study
Dear Reader,
There is nothing more precious, or powerful than the Word of Almighty God! These scriptures are provided to you as a reference, and as a means to help you to walk in the power of God and divine health. I encourage you to study this subject on your own and to LEARN these, especially if you are experiencing physical problems or health issues. Mark them in your Bible. Learn where they are - and what they mean to you!
Remember:, it’s not important that you understand how it works – what is important is that you understand that it does work. (read the parable in Mark 4:26-28)
Most Important:
Before you do anything - Ask the Lord for understanding of these and begin to apply by faith the revelation that HE gives you – only then will you begin to see the results promised.

Father I thank you for the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of you, and I ask that you grant that the eyes of my understanding be filled with light that I may know what is the hope of Your calling, and what the riches of the glory of Your inheritance is in the saints, … And what is the exceeding greatness of Your power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of Your mighty power, Which You wrought in Christ, when You raised him from the dead, and set him at Your own right hand in the heavenly places.
I ask that you open the eyes of my heart, that I may see the wondrous and secret things in of your Word and help me to understand your precepts so I can walk in them.
I ask this in Jesus name: Amen

Finally: We are told in the Word of God (the Bible) that 'faith' is the means thru which we access the promises of God for healing.
As a Christian, I spent years dealing with heart problems that finally caused me to have 4 heart attacks and then open heart surgery. During this period I always believed that the Lord could heal me - I just didn't understand why he wouldn't heal me.
As a result, I suffered with a debilitating heart condition that not only let me weak and unable to function most of the time, but it also caused me great pain regularly. And it was all because I could not understand why the Lord would not heal me.
Finally the Lord showed me something that changed my life: "My people are destroyed (suffer poverty, sickness and death because of a lack of knowledge (they don't know what they need to know!) [Hosea 4:6]
It was then that I realized that the problem was not that God would not heal me - but rather that I did not know how to receive by faith the healing that He said He had already accomplished at the Cross when Jesus TOOK our sickness and pain! [Isaiah 53: 1-5 • 1 Peter 2;24 • Matthew 8:17]
I realized that I needed to learn what I did not know so that I could begin to receive the promise of health and healing: "Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through (and by way of) our knowledge of Him who called us by his own glory and goodness. He has given us His very great and precious promises, so that through (our knowledge of these promises) you may participate in the divine nature (live the healthy, prosperous and victorious life that HE has for us) [2 Peter 1:2-4 NIVSR]
