Jesus' death ratified the Abrahamic covenant (God's covenant/promises with Abraham) which granted us healing for our bodies, prosperity, and well-being for our families. These promises are the basis of the entire New Testament.
It was because of this covenant, Jesus came to earth.
Genesis 17: 1-5, 7 "And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and they seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee."
English Standard Version says it like this:
"And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your offspring after you."
If you are 'In Christ,' you are the seed of Abraham and therefore you have a 'Blood bought' right to these promises.
This should confirm for every child of God the question:
"Is it God's Will that you be healed."
God sealed His side of the agreement by swearing an oath.
Genesis 22:16, God said, "By myself, have I sworn."
Abraham's side of the agreement was to live an upright life.

Lack Of Knowledge
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." Hosea 4:6
Our faith in God is paralyzed and cannot operate beyond our knowledge of His Word.
When we learn God's Word, we understand His Will.
*Everything we receive from God is through faith and the Bible tells us that "Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God." Romans 10:17
So in order to know what God's Will is concerning healing, we have to understand Him, what He has accomplished for us and what He desires to give us.
We do this through the Bible, His Word.

The Secret Place
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High
| |||||
I will say of the LORD,
| |||||
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
| |||||
He shall cover thee with his feathers,
| |||||
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;
| |||||
nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness;
| |||||
A thousand shall fall at thy side,
| |||||
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold
| |||||
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge,
| |||||
there shall no evil befall thee,
| |||||
For he shall give his angels charge over thee,
| |||||
They shall bear thee up in their hands,
| |||||
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder:
| |||||
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him:
| |||||
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him:
| |||||
With long life will I satisfy him,
|
