Verses, word studies and cross references are an expansion of work from Pastor Keith Moore, Faith Life Church in Branson, MO and Sarasota, FL. This list doesn't contain all the verses in the Bible about healing, but it explains God's plan and desire for us in a beautiful way.
People who prime their faith with this have a much higher chance of getting healed very quickly, even if they have life threatening, advanced issues in their body.
We go through up to ten verses and the cross references in one of our daily classes. Depending on what people need, we may change topics or expand one area.
