 Good book for information on Healing December 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book looks at the power of healing. It begins by looking at the reasons why Jesus healed people. Then it moves on to examine what things Jesus healed. Finally, the author discusses how Jesus heals today.
Make no mistake the author writes about an active charismatic type of healing, not just passive prayer to God for healing. The author describes many different experiences of healings and even provides a model to start the practice of healings. The model involves not just healing physical illnesses, but also mental and emotional illnesses as well as casting out evil spirits.
For example, according to the author, the procedure to cast out a demon is to identify the spirit, silence the spirit, and then cast out the spirit. The process for healing someone is through prayer before, during, and after the healing. It also can involve the laying on of hands.
To me this book was not what I was looking for. Does God heal people today? Yes! Does He heal charismatically like the way the author describes? Maybe, He has the power to do so if He chooses.
This book does not convince me that anyone can heal nor does it convince me these charismatic gifts are still in widespread use by God today.
Overall this is a good book for learning more about the power of healing through God.

One of the best books in Healing and Deliverance June 6, 2005
21 out of 21 found this review helpful
This would be one of the best books in the area of healing and deliverence. In the early Pentecostal days with lots of healings and deliverance taking place, what came lacking was the theology to healing and deliverance, and John Wimber wrote Power Healing at a time where a strong renewal theology in healing and deliverance was needed. This is not a book like those you get from the "Word of Faith" movements. This book is solidly grounded on the Word of God, not denying the reality of life, but faces them head on. This book deals with some very difficult issues, e.g. "Can Christians be demon possessed?" and "Why are all not healed?"
I appreciate John's humility in writing this book, not as an expert, but as a practitioner discovering the heart of God in this subject matter. John wrote candidly and also the struggles he faced, and I believe you would be able to identify very much with what he wrote. I am most inspired by his perseverence and tenacity in praying for people to be healed. He began the healing ministry with no one getting healed for 10 months (how many of us would have given up already) but he pressed on believing in God's redemptive heart, of which healing is part of it all. Through his journey and discovery, he writes this book like a primer to the ministry of healing and deliverance, and this is a must read for anyone venturing into this area.

He loves you and wants you healed! Books like this will build up your faith and get you started. More advanced: "The Power of Divine: A Healer's Guide" by Tiffany Snow and "Hands of Light" by Derek Prince.
Wimber is the Real Deal April 8, 2004
9 out of 11 found this review helpful
John Wimber was a man who affected his generation. He loved the Lord and accepted healing as part of the atonement. He not only presents what he believes from a biblically sound perspective but he also went ahead and gave testimonies of healings that he witnessed. Only other authors this good on the subject might be F.F. Bosworth or Smith Wigglesworth.
