    The Healing Model of Jesus

    The model Jesus used for healing prayer consisted of at least one and sometimes a combination of the following, as

    indicated by the verses below:

    . 0% of the time, Jesus consulted with God the Father or the Holy Spirit regarding demonstrating healing forthe person.

    2. Almost 69% of the time an action to be obeyed was spoken. (20 times out of 32)3. Almost 47% of the time a touch was used. It was usually the hand or part that needed healing. (15 times

    out of 32)

    4. Almost 16% of the time a statement that healing had occurred was spoken. (5 times out of 32)5. Almost 10% of the time a command to be healed was spoken. (3 times out of 32)6. Almost 10% of the time compassion or heart felt emotion toward the sick was described. (3 times out of

    32)

    7. 28% of the time, Jesus initiated prayer/healing for the person getting healed. (7 times out of 25)8. 28% of the time, the disciples initiated prayer/healing for the person getting healed. (2 times out of 7)9. 71% of the time, people came to or called out to Jesus or the disciples for prayer/healing. (23 times out of

    32)

    0.75% of the time, people were INSTANTLY healed. (24 times out of 32)1.25% of the time, healing was a process that continued within the hour AFTER the person left Jesus or the

    disciple. (8 times out of 32)

    In all 32 healings listed below, both Jesus and the disciples held the majority of faith:

    . Out of all 32 healings below, only 3 times(for 4 people), was the faith of the sick/diseased/lame personattributed to their own healing.

    2. Out of all 32 healings below, only 4 times or 12.5% of the time, Jesus prayed for a friend or familymember of the person requesting prayer. The faith of these 4 people were added to the faith of Jesus and

    the disciples, and healing took place in the person they came on behalf of.

    Almost 79% of the time, the faith of Jesus or His disciple was the ONLY faith involved in the healing.

    Exactly 9.1% of the time, the faith of the person being healed was the ONLY faith involved in the healing

    Almost 91% of the time, the faith of Jesus or His disciple was the PRIMARY faith involved in the healing.

    The faith of person being healed, or the person requesting prayer was added to the faith of Jesus or Hisdisciple as a secondary source.

    Some points I noticed about Jesus healings:

    Jesus was performing the healing in Gods name, fully human and empowered by the Holy Spirit, one with

    the father. Therefore, He did not have to say In my name or In Gods name. I dont know why the disciples

    said In Jesus name in Acts, or why Paul and Peter did not say in Jesus name more in the epistles.

    Interestingly enough, in Mark 9:38-39 an unsaved person was going around casting out demons in the

    name of Jesus and Jesus did not know it, and did not condemn this activity. In Matthew 7:22, Jesus also

    indicates that His name has so much power, that even people whom He never knew, WILL(not might or

    maybe) perform miracles, cast out devils, and prophecy using His name. In Luke 10:17, the 72 disciples

    came back reporting that even the demons obey them when they used His name. Using the phrase In

    Jesus name in conjunction with healing is demonstrated broadly enough that I incorporate it. I think

    testifies to the power of His name, let alone faith in that name.

    Jesus boldly and authoritatively referred to himself a lot in these healings using (I) as did the disciples. It

    was not because Jesus was operating in His divinity or in the power of the human self(soul). It was

    because as Acts 10:38 said, God was with Him as He was anointed by the Holy Spirit. God was also in

    His disciples and they were in Him, one with Him, so I was appropriately describing them ALL, the

    combination of the new creation, Jesus/Holy Spirit in us. Samuel was told something similar when he was

    annointed in 1 Samuel 10:7.

    The healings usually took place after any of the above 4 things were done by Jesus or the disciples

    WHILE faith was being excercised.Almost 49% of the time, an exclamation mark is used. (16 times out of 32)

    Below is a listing of every healing of Jesus and the disciples, correlated with the items above beginning in Matthew

    through the end of Acts.

    . Matthew 8:1-3 Touch, A command to be healed:1 Large crowds followed Jesus as he came down the mountainside. 2 Suddenly, a man with leprosy

    approached him and knelt before him. Lord, the man said, if you are willing, you can heal me and make

    me clean. 3 Jesus reached out and touched him. I am willing, he said. Be healed! And immediately his

    leprosy was cleansed.

    **Notice that man went on continuing in some sort of sin. Jesus made it a point to tell this man to stop sinning LEST-

    [in order to avoid, for fear that, in order to prevent] something worse happening to him. This indicates that after a

    healing, sowing and reaping can contribute to not only the same sickness/disease returning but that it can become

    worse or that something new that is worse can occur.
