Praying the Word
To pray the word, the believer should find scriptures that pertain to their needs. In the case of physical healing the believer should pray scriptures that relate to healing.
Visualization
Abraham visualized his descendants being multiplied as numerous as the stars in the sky. Jacob visualized the colored sheep multiplying for the increase of his prosperity. When praying the scriptures the believer should visualize themselves or visualize the results that they want to receive rather than the symptoms that currently exist.
Thanking God for the Answer
The believer should thank God for the way they want to be and see themselves as healed as they mediate on the scriptures. The believer should start with the top of their head and go to the soles of their feet and speak out thankfulness to the Lord for healing their physical bodies saying, ” I thank God that such and such is healed in my body in Jesus name.” They should speak according to what condition they want to manifest in their bodies rather than according to existing symptoms. Sometimes the enemy will cause the symptoms in increase hoping to get the believer to back off the word of God. But if the believer will stand their ground and not be moved then the devil cannot stop them from receiving total healing of their aliments.
Below are a list of scriptures that a believer can pray though which will activate their faith and bring healing to their bodies and meet other needs in their lives.
