Healing Rooms

There is an amazing organization called the International Association of Healing Rooms. It is based on the work of early 20th century, missionary and healing revivalist John G. Lake. After returning from Africa, Lake established a ministry for healing and restoration in Spokane, WA. Thousands of people experienced supernatural healing and at one point the US government declared Spokane to be the healthiest city in America.

The Healing Rooms began again in Spokane about 10 years ago and is growing all over the world. For most of my life, I did not know that the ministry of healing continued today. But when we study Scripture and our own church history, it's impossible to deny that we are called and equipped to do supernatural acts. Our obstacle to realizing these things include ignorance, faulty beliefs, rationalism, and lack of faith. Healing is our inheritance and a result of Christ's death on the cross. May the Church rise up and take her authority to heal the nations spiritually, emotionally, and physically!

"But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed." Isaiah 53:5
