Does Everyone Have the Gift of Healing?
Denis asks “Does everyone have the Gift of Healing?” This is a super question with even a better answer.
But before I get to this answer, let me ask you a question. Does everyone have an artistic gift to draw and paint a masterpiece to display in a museum. No, we don’t. But, most of us could pick up an art pencil and if we worked at it could draw something.
It’s this way with the supernatural gifts of healings. According to 1 Corinthians 12:9-10 the Holy Spirit gives gifts of healings and the working of miracles to people as He wills. No, not everyone has these spiritual gifts. But what I find so utterly amazing is that God so desires for all people to be healed that His Spirit does not leave anyone out of the picture. He says in Mark 16:17-18 that if we believe we will lay hands on the sick and they will recover.
To sum up this answer, no, not all people have been given gifts of healings, but according to Romans 12:3 we have all been given a measure of faith. “For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. ” Faith is a great gift. And truthfully there are no limits about what faith can do. It’s up to each individual to develop faith. And that’s what the promise in the Great Commission is all about, “If we believe we will lay hands on the sick and they will recover.”
