If you diligently apply yourself to these principles, you will be equipped to step out and be a strong tool for God to use in His vineyard.
Memorize Key Words:Compassion-Ask-Listen-Presence-Command-Test-Repeat(CALP CTR)
1. Express Compassion–smile, ask their name, express
love to them, “Of course Jesus wants to heal you … Jesus includes everyone … you
absolutely are included.”
2.
Ask“What’s Wrong?” – “Where does it hurt?” and then, “May I pray for you?” – focus intently
on one item at a time.
3.
Become Still &Listen
to God – Ask, “How
should I pray for this person?” Relax, smile and receive, tuning to flowing
thoughts and flowing pictures as your eyes are fixed on Jesus. If no special
revelation bubbles up, then minister healing based on the promises in the Bible
and Jesus’ example of healing ALL. Maybe ask the client, “How long have you had
this and what event occurred at the time this problem began?” To receive words
of knowledge, you should ask for them, receiving
any “miscellaneous” information the Lord may want to reveal through the above
means while also tuning to spontaneous emotions, spontaneous bodily sensations,
and spontaneous pictures/words of body parts.Step out in faith and lovingly
share them.
4.
Invite God’s
Presence – His Compassion& Power to Heal– “Lord, pour Yourloveand healing
power on this person.Holy Spirit, we welcomeYour presence.”With your eyes open,
watch the person for signs of the Holy Spirit moving upon them (eyelids
flutter, become flushed, gentle trembling, peace). NOW, the love and power of
the Lord is present to heal! (Lk. 5:17)
5.
Commandthe Healingin
Jesus’Name –Lay your hand on the infirm spot (be sensitive when praying for opposite
sex). Command the affliction/pain to leave. Use short prayers (10-20 seconds). Both
client and prayer counselor are to stay relaxed and smiling so you do not block
the flow of the Holy Spirit. Maintain this attitude: “Healing is easy because
Jesus has already done the work.” (Isa. 53:4,5; Ps. 103:3;147:3) “Because Jesus is alive, tonight the blind
will see, the lame will walk, the deaf will hear.”Rebukedemons and command pain to go. Speak restoration and normal
function of all cells and body parts.“Function normally in Jesus’ name!” See
God’s light penetrating the area. You focus God’s healing light on the infirm
spot just as you would focus a magnifying glass on a piece of paper so that the
sun’s rays are intensified and start it on fire.God’s focused healing power releases
miracles (Lk. 11:34-36; Hab. 3:4). You are simply declaring, believing and
seeing His divine energy penetrate the area.
6.
TestIt Out – Invite them to thank God for the healing as theydo something they
could not easily do before. Miracles manifestas they step out in faith,
believing, thanking(Mk. 11:22-24) and receiving in childlike joy.
As the lepers went, they were healed (Lk. 17:14). “Get up and walk.”
7.
Repeat: Pray a Second, Third and Fourth Time –If you pray and you see no visible change or
you see a partial healing, then pray again (immediately) until you have prayed
3-4 times and either they are completely healed or you note no further improvement(Matt. 7:7,8; Lk.
18:1-8; Mk. 8:23-25).These prayers do not need to be any longer
than your initial prayer. Close by praying a blessing.Finally, be sure to
determine if they have ever invited Christ into their lives. If not, lead them
in a simple salvation prayer.

Heart flow occurs
when I cease striving, which happens when:
·
I remember that healing is easy because Jesus
has already done the work.
·
I have a big
smile on my face.
·
I see my hands as Jesus’ hands and His power (as light) flowing through them.
·
I see God’s
Kingdom overtaking the kingdom of darkness.
Principles Concerning
Activating God’s Faith (1 Cor. 12:7,9)
·
I receive God’s faith as a gift by laying
my hand on my heart and saying, “Faith, enlarge.”
·
The
authority is in: using the name of Jesus (Phil. 2:9; Jn. 16:23,24),
ourrelationship with Jesus (Jn. 1:12),the message of the Gospel
(Rom. 1:16; Mk. 4:28) andHis delight to heal (1 Jn. 5:14; Lk. 5:13).
·
As I command pain & infirmity to leave in
Jesus’ name, I fully expect it will obey.
·
I take risks. Recall that faith involves risk.
Divine healing is HIS reputation at risk, not mine.
Suggestions for Conducting a Healing
Practicum in a Christian Group
1.
Review the 7 step model for the group, so they
understand what the 7 steps are, and have them recite together the seven key
words.
2.
Model the 7 steps with a volunteer who has pain
in their body, praying for them 1-4 times.
3.
Ask all who would like prayer to come to the
front and form a line.
4.
Ask for volunteers to come and stand in front of
each person in the line (can have either one or two people praying for each
client).
5.
Have them pray for their partner (1-4 times),
following the 7 step model, while some soft worship music plays in the
background.
6.
Folks can return to their seats when they are
done receiving prayer.
7.
After all are prayed for, ask for some
testimonies, and perhaps a show of hands as to how many experienced some improvement
or full healing.
