36 | ❤️🩹 Two kinds of healing
Sometimes, healing happens instantly. Other times, it occurs over time as people how to be well.
Or, to say it another way... sometimes, Jesus touches us and we are dramatically changed in that moment. Other times, He imparts His wisdom to us so that we can “walk out” the freedom.
⭐️
Now, think about what this really means, practically. Let’s move it from theory to real life:
👉 Jesus can heal lung cancer, but He can also teach us about the ills of smoking.
👉 He can cure diabetes. He also shows us how to eat better.
👉 He can heal sexually transmitted diseases. He also provides us with directions on how to live whole and healthy lives, as well as experience the joy of true intimacy with one person.
👉 He can heal us of the dozens of physical nuisances that we’ve grown to tolerate. Or, we can take His directions and experience what it really means to be alive!

As far as it relates to emotional wholeness…
… and overcoming the effects of PTSD and Moral Injury
It’s possible— and even highly probable— you’ll find healing through the process of walking it out. Too many people wait to get struck by lightning, that is, for a supernatural event to occur that suddenly becomes their breakthrough.
What if that doesn’t happen?
Is all hope vanquished?
Of course not. We can still therapeuo our way there. We can claim our freedom and begin the process of sorting life and fighting for wholeness.

When I’m teaching these concepts from a stage— or in an online forum— I often express it like this, “Healing is something God does and health is something we do. Both work together.”
For sure, this is a simplistic definition. But, it helps us get on the “same page,” so we can understand what we’re talking about.
Notice how the two work together, long-term.
💥 If the iaomai / miracle happens, we want to walk it out with therapeuo / intentionality.
❤️🩹 Therapeuo / intentionality can, over time, reap the same results as a miracle / iaomai.
I’ve taught this concept in several churches and used the following phrase to summarize the concept: “Miracle or no miracle, healing happens now.”
