And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing ALL kinds of sickness and ALL kinds of disease among the people. Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him ALL sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. – Matthew 4:23-24
The Word of God says that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God (Romans 10:17). So, if we’re not hearing the Word of God—if we’re filling our hearts with doctrines that contradict His truth—not only will faith not come, but unbelief that chokes out the Word will (Romans 10:17; Mark 4:18-19; Matthew 13:22; Colossians 2:8). That’s why the Lord instructs us to guard our hearts from the world’s report and cling to His report alone (Proverbs 4:20-23; Isaiah 53:1; Psalm 112:7; Romans 12:2; Proverbs 3:5-7).
The Word says Jesus Christ healed ALL kinds of sicknesses and ALL kinds of diseases. Tragically, various “Christian” denominations today teach:
- against healing
- that they believe God may still heal but don’t teach it correctly as part of Christ’s victory at the Cross.
- to pray “if it be God’s will…” regarding healing which is unbelief in what is written and NOT a sign of humility.
- God may heal, but it’s not His will to heal certain conditions like autism spectrum disorder or what this ministry refers to as autism arrested development (AAD) or special needs conditions.
The last point is the one I’m highlighting by the Holy Spirit’s leading. We can see plainly in God’s Word that Jesus never categorized certain conditions as “not the Father’s will to heal.” When churches say “God heals cancer but not autism arrested development or special needs or chromosomal disorders,” they have bowed their knee to the culture of this world, not to King Jesus, the Word.
That’s why I titled this post, “Don’t Fall for the Lie Many Christians Believe About Healing Autism Arrested Development — All Means All.”
Because if one in Christ falls for placing certain conditions like (autism) AAD into a false category called “conditions that are not God’s will to heal,“ then that one’s heart will be filled with unbelief concerning healing in general. Why? Because that categorizing-sicknesses lie roots the deception into that one’s heart that it’s God’s will for some to remain sick!!! Therefore, it’s always guesswork or a so-called mystery whether it’s God’s will to heal anyone.
Matthew 4:4 says, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” So when we walk by God’s Word alone, there’s no room to doubt that it’s God’s will to heal and deliver from autism arrested development.
We read above in Matthew 4:23-24 that Jesus healed all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease. No type of sickness or disease, including birth defects, was excluded from the conditions Jesus healed (John 9:1-7; Acts 3:1–10; Acts 14:8-10). All means all.
Reject Evil Reports
Numbers 14:36–37 (NKJV)
“Now the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned and made all the congregation complain against him by bringing a bad report of the land, those very men who brought the evil report about the land died by the plague before the LORD.”
The Word calls it an evil report because it contradicted God’s Word. Don’t allow the evil one to use anyone, including pastors and other Christians to get you to embrace the evil report over God’s report.
Also, it’s not God’s will for any child of God to be tossed by every wind of doctrine. Ephesians 4:14 says, “That we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.” This verse paints the picture of believers being unstable.
Today, that can look like believers being manipulated by teachings that sound spiritual but are rooted in deception rather than the truth of God’s Word. For example, the evil one whispers, “Aw, they were born that way. We need to love and accept them as just they are or it’s hateful. The sickness condition is JUST WHO THEY ARE.”
But true love, mercy, and compassion Jesus Christ’s way is to set captives free from sickness because sickness is oppression of the devil.
Acts 10:38 (NKJV):
“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.”
- Healing is “doing good.”
- Oppression is explicitly attributed to the devil, not God.
- Jesus healed all who were oppressed.
When pulpits or believers put AAD is an imaginary category called “conditions God refuses to heal,” they are calling what is evil good and what is good evil.
Isaiah 5:20 (NKJV):
“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
God made it simple: Healing is good. Sickness is bad. Jesus Christ Himself carried our sicknesses and bore pains…and by His stripes, we were healed (Isaiah 53:4-5; 1 Peter 2:24).
