Synopsis
This powerful and practical book examines in depth the issue of healing. God's purpose is to deliver his people from all forms of oppression, and that includes making them whole beings - spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically. Following closely Jesus' healing ministry in the Gospels, Colin Urquhart invites us to base our faith on the authority and security of Christ's promises, rather than focusing on our own experience, doubts and expectations. He deals with the searching questions which people often ask: Is it always God's purpose to heal? If so, how do we receive his healing power? Isn't death the ultimate healing for Christians? Why isn't everybody healed? Colin Urquhart encourages us to pray with faith in the confidence that God really does hear our prayers, and we can trust his purpose for our lives. As we grow in faith in what God has done through Jesus, we will know more and more of his healing power.

Customer Reviews

This book was a turning point
When I was diagnosed with cancer a couple of years ago, I set out on a journey to try to get well which has taken me to all sorts of places and all sorts of treatments. The problem was that I never really believed that any of them would cure me, but my faith wasn't really strong or directed enough to help me out.
I found this book on the bottom shelf of my local Christian bookshop - I started reading it and couldn't put it down. It's pointed out to me that all my answers are there in my faith, and it's set me off on a new path that I know for sure is the right one for me.
It's clearly written, doesn't mess about, and although it's hard work, it gives clear messages about how you can develop your faith in such a way that you can receive all the healing you need.
I don't know exactly what the future holds, but I do feel a good deal happier about it now.
