suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. So I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not cure him.”
    Then Jesus answered and said, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me.” And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour.

MT. 17:14-17
    After repeated failed attempts by the disciples to heal his son, the man could have easily concluded that it wasn’t God’s will for his son to be healed or that it wasn’t God’s time. Failure robs us of hope and hope deferred makes the heart sick. But this man didn’t give up hope – he went to Jesus.
    By casting out the demon and healing the boy, Jesus demonstrated that the condition (epilepsy) had a spiritual cause and that it was God’s will and time for the boy to be healed. Many well-meaning people will attempt to heal the sick and fail, because they haven’t developed faith that consistently heals. We can’t fault them for trying, but we shouldn’t assume that their failure means that God doesn’t want healing to take place. Failed healing usually results from a lack of faith on the part of the healer, not a lack of willingness on the part of God. Remember, Jesus rebuked His disciples for their lack of faith when the boy was not healed. If someone has prayed with you and you haven’t been healed, don’t let their failure make you believe that God doesn’t want you healed. Be like the Father of the sick boy and find someone full of faith or go to Jesus yourself.
    Healing is sometimes a gradual process, like the rest of God’s work in our lives. From the first day we believe in Christ as our savior, changes begin to take place. Although we are immediately given the righteousness of God, our conduct doesn’t immediately become righteous. The transformation from rebellious sinner to obedient son or daughter is a process called sanctification. How quickly it happens is determined by our cooperation with God. The more we resist, the longer it takes. Over time, God’s grace transforms us into the image of His Son.
    Salvation, though it is immediately available, may take time to be brought to fulfillment. Healing can be much the same way. God’s grace for healing is always available. We can obtain it immediately. But the change in our body may take time. God’s plan for healing can be resisted by us and by the enemy, slowing our healing. In another chapter we’ll look at the ways that we can work against God’s plan for our healing.
    Most of the people I know who operate in healing have something they want to be healed of. I’ve been healed of neck and shoulder pain, back pain, and a heart condition that I had for 25 years. But I’m still waiting for my eyes to be healed. I believe my healing is coming, so I’ve decided to wait for it. I think it’s worth our time to pursue healing with a passion. But until it arrives, we must patiently wait.
Ken’s Dream
    In most of the chapters of this book, I’ll share my own revelation from God in the form of dreams, but in this chapter our dream comes from a friend. Ken Nichols has been used by God in healing for some time. He wrestled with the question of whether he had blanket authority to pray with everyone for healing or if he had limited authority to pray only for certain people. On December 5th, 2010, Jesus paid him a visit in a dream and answered that question. This is his account:
    Before I explain the dream, let me give some background. Now as many of you may know I fully realize from the Word of God, that we are one with Christ who has been given all authority in Heaven and earth. Jesus our example and teacher demonstrated to us the will of the Father in all things, including healing the sick. He never prayed for even one, instead He gave a word of command and declaration. Another way of saying this is, He exercised authority and healed them.
