First I must say that for you to heal someone is impossible, only God can heal people(thats important!). It's all for the glory of God, not the glory of you. Allright then, when Jesus died on the cross he took all your pain with him, isaiah 53 : 5, by his wounds we are healed. Okay, it says, "By his wounds we ARE healed." not we can be healed, we are allready healed. So when you pray over someone you and the person have to know that they will be healed. Also theres a difference between a miracle and a-

healing. Miracles happen right away, healings can happen over days. Also remember that Jesus wants you healed more than you do. God made you in his own image, God didn't have pain, or a broken arm, or a cold, or even a head ache, (etc...)Just lay hands on them and pray that God will heal them.
These are a few of the things God says about healing (in bold writing)... the prayer of faith heals the sick..
and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. James 5:15
In order to be healed.. someone has to know and believe JESUS heals... many came by faith to JESUS while he was on earth.. He healed the sick.. Many came to the disciples.. even sitting in the shadow of Paul.. the sick were healed..
We are commanded to heal the sick..
"Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you received, freely give. Matthew 10:8
We have got to believe.. and act on what is said.. to pray the prayer of faith we need to know this is so and pray from what we know.. to lay hands on the sick and they will recover.. we need to go lay our hands on someone and actually believe they will get well!
These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues;they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." Mark 16:17-18
It is not about what is seen or felt.. or experienced.. it is about the LORD and what HE has said and that someone will believe.. Faith is believing what HE said and acting on that.. when we act on what the LORD says about healing.. healing comes..
And Jesus said to him, "Receive your sight; your faith has made you well."
Luke 18:42</SPAN>

God said in Mark, All those who believe, they shall lay hands on the sick and they will be healed. It didn't say some would be healed, God said that ALL will be healed. Many have been taught wrong doctrine where they have been taught that "If it is God's will that I be healed. OF COURSE, it's Gods will! In every healing scripture in the bible, it says that they came to Jesus and healed them ALL, not some, but All. One man even asked God, Lord, if it is your will, and he said Yes, be healed! I'm sorry, but you are not reading your bible or you are calling God a liar. I do believe that God does allow us to go through some healings and not heal us right away, to teach us not to suffer, but to teach us faith and also to minister to others with the testimony, but even with Paul, he was healed before he went to heaven, on earth. There are so many reasons that God showed lme why we are not healed and that can be sin, or word curses, God says that we can curse ourselves or bless ourselves with the words that we speak, Generations Curses, like cancer , we need to rebuke that spirit and command it to leave us and break the generational curse back to Adam and Eve. Sometimes, we bring sickness upon ourselves by eating bad and we get diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, etc. Unforgiveness is a sin that God said in Proverbs will rot the bones.
