How To Use Your Healing Power The Meaning Of The Healings Of Jesus

How to Use Your Healing Power is Dr. Joseph Murphy's lecture on the inner meaning of the healing in the New Testament. Murphy draws on his wide experience to illustrate how the healing miracles performed by Jesus exemplify the application, in specific cases, of basic principles of spiritual laws that have existed. He tells the reader how to apply the healing principle today, in the same way Jesus did 2,000 years ago. Every chapter offers some new interpretation or phase of spiritual healing that will help you to meet your daily moods and decisions with confidence that you can handle all situations constructively. Dr. Joseph Murphy has been acclaimed as a major figure in the human potential movement. He was one of the best selling authors in the mid-twentieth century. With thirty books to his credit, his most notable, The Power of Your Subconscious Mind, has sold millions of copies and has been translated into seventeen languages. Dr. Murphy wrote, taught, counseled, and lectured to thousands of people all over the world as Minister-Director of the Church of Divine Science in Los Angeles and through his daily radio program. “Whatever you do, do it with love and good will. Pour out love, peace, and good will to all.” – Joseph Murphy

How to Use Your Healing Power (1957) by Dr. Joseph Murphy explains the inner meaning of the healing miracles of the New Testament. Through the analysis of Biblical stories, Dr. Murphy illuminates how the reader can apply these same healing principles to their own lives. Joseph Murphy (b. 1898, d. 1981) was born in Ireland in 1898 to a private boys' school headmaster father. Raised Roman Catholic, he first thought he would become a Catholic priest and enrolled in a Jesuit seminary while also studying chemistry. But by his late teen years, he began to question Catholic orthodoxy. While he was ordained a priest, it didn't take long for him to leave the priesthood. Eager to explore new ideas, he emigrated to the United States in 1922 and earned a living as a pharmacist. It was here that he was introduced to New Thought at New York City's Church of the Healing Christ. Upon the outbreak of World War, Murphy brought his expertise in pharmacology to the war effort. And after the war, he further sought spiritual answers, learning Hindu philosophy in India and taking university courses. Upon his return to the United States, Murphy relocated to Los Angeles and became part of the thriving New Thought community there. He began writing prolifically, releasing over 30 books on spirituality between the 1940s and 1980s. He also earned a Ph.D. in psychology from the University of Southern California in the 1950s. Murphy was ordained into Religious Science and later into Divine Science. He became minister of the Los Angeles Divine Science Church and turned it into a thriving ministry, gathering large crowds at the nearly 1,300-seat Wilshire Ebell Theatre to share his message. One of those lectures was on the topic of the healing miracles of Jesus Christ, which he later expanded on and turned into How to Use Your Healing Power. This work explores the power of spiritual awareness to fight mental disorders. As Dr. Murphy explains, "All demons or devils are negative states of mind that have been developed because the creative power of man has been used in an ignorant and destructive manner. The work of every man is to...through spiritual awareness cast out of his own mind the false theories, dogmas, beliefs, opinions, as well as all negative states such as resentment, ill will, hatred, jealousy, etc." The mind can also heal physical ailments as well as the mental, as we see in the stories of Simon's mother-in-law in Mark and Luke, and the healing of the leper in Matthew, Mark, and Luke. For healing of the body, Dr. Murphy writes, "...withdraw mentally from symptoms and evidence of senses and begin to think of God's Healing Presence within you." Through a sense of calm, inner reflection, and prayer, Dr. Murphy avers that individuals can heal themselves and their loved ones. Dr. Murphy's writings present an interesting amalgamation of New Thought spirituality and science. Drawing on a mind-body connection that is still not entirely understood, he presents an uplifting view of the Biblical word. While he was trained in both scripture and psychology, he uses clear language that the layperson can easily understand. According to Dr. Murphy, "The Bible is a psychological textbook which teaches us how to overcome all problems. It explains how we get into trouble; then teaches us how to get out of trouble." With the healing power innate in all of humanity, we can heal what ails us.

Much has been written and said about the healing methods that Jesus used in His very striking cures of physical ills. However, very few have dared even to suggest that Jesus applied universal law in His restorative methods. Charles Fillmore have found that Jesus' healing methods were based on universal mental and spiritual laws that anyone can utilize. Ultimately, that cognition led him to the conclusion that man and the universe are founded on mind and that all changes for good or ill are changes of mind.

Remember that it is not a prayer, because Jesus never prayed for the sick. It is a command, so firmly get it fixed in your mind to say, In the name of Jesus, we command....And then speak to the part of the body that needs healing. When Jesus healed the sick man at the pool of Bethesda, He said, Rise, take up your bed and walk (John 5:8). In Matthew 12:13, Jesus commanded the man with the withered hand, Stretch out your hand, and when the man did, his hand was restored as whole as the other. Jesus disciples followed His example of making healing commands, as recorded in Acts 3:6 in the healing of the lame man: Then Peter said, Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.' Verse 7 proclaims, And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. The Scriptures go on to report that the healed man began walking and leaping, and praising God! Notice also that when the people put their FAITH INTO ACTION whether by stretching out their hand, or taking up their bed and walking, or rising up and walking they were healed!"

The power of God is tangible. This means that the supernatural power of God may be discernable to the senses, especially to the touch.When someone touched Jesus, they felt it, and Jesus felt it. Jesus said, "Somebody touched Me, for I perceived power going out from Me" (Luke 8:46, NKJV.) The NLT says, "Someone deliberately touched me, for I felt healing power go out from me."On another occasion, as Jesus was teaching, "... the power of the Lord was present to heal them" (Luke 5:17, NKJV.) The very atmosphere was charged with power. This power was perceivable and discernable. This power was tangible.This is the power that heals the sick - it is the tangible healing power of God.In this book, we will investigate multiple occasions in the Scriptures of where this happened, learning something from each of them. We will also see examples in history, modern times, and in the ministry of the author.
