The Great Healing Movement Returns
This Word is originally from 2019-20, but at God’s command, brought up to date for 2024!
I’ve once again been feeling a Call, even a pull, back to my ministry roots of late, and The LORD is reminding me of many notable miracle healings we have either been part of, or that my wife and I have received for ourselves! I remember many as if it were yesterday!
Yet, decades ago, the late 40’s, 50’s and 60’s were noted for the great Healing Revival which swept through the world, especially America through people like Oral Roberts, A A Allen, William Branham, Jack Coe, and latterly Kenneth E Hagin and T L Osborn.
My own birthing into ministry in 2007 was through the Prophetic Healing Ministry of my own mentor, Peter Barnes.
Scripture importantly shows us that healing, signs, and wonders are for unbelievers — John 10:37-38 and 1 Corinthians 14:22-25!
” If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me; but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.” John 10:37-38
“Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophesying is not for unbelievers but for those who believe. Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind? But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all. And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.” 1 Corinthians 14:22-25.
We know for certain that The LORD is already beginning to move by His Holy Spirit in an awakening and revival that will bring millions into His Kingdom.
I believe we are also going to see a great wave after wave of signs, wonders, and miracles —especially miracle healings.
We shall watch in awe and wonder as we see broken bodies restored and healed in ways that no medical science could even begin to emulate.
These miracles will draw the lost, and Holy Spirit will do the rest as we watch so many come to Christ as a result of seeing or receiving a miracle.
I believe we shall see these signs and wonders bring salvation even to those who are our sworn enemies, who do not know of, or believe that such miracles are even possible.
Or those who claim such occurrences only happened in the first church and subsequently died out and were lost.
I believe we shall see such miracles as will make the miracles of Moses, Elijah, Elisha, Daniel, and Ezekiel seem minor, even insignificant by comparison.
Such will be the impact that the words of Paul will resonate and become reality. To paraphrase the words of 1 Corinthians 2,
“And our speech and our preaching are not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Holy Spirit and of power, that the hearers and receivers faith should not be in the words or wisdom of men but in the manifest demonstrated power of God. These words of ours shall be delivered in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.” 1 Corinthians 2:3-5.
Oh, this awakening that is upon us is going to cause such a furore as those who would deny the truth of such events, those who would deprecate and mock those preaching, will stand weeping as the presence of God makes a mockery of their mockery!
The time for a new healing revival is upon us but, even so, it shall only be a part of the overall move of God against His enemies.
Given “in fear and trembling”.
Postscript
I’m aware that this post coincides with Dutch & Tim Sheets ‘Healing Summit’ meeting but this is The LORD’s timing.

Chris Bennett came to salvation in 1962 but didn’t begin ministry until 2007 — a late-comer! Now mandated by The LORD to prophesy and open old wells of revival in the U.K., but especially in Wales. He has also operated Healing Rooms, and worked with deliverance teams, all with his wife, Linda. Happily now doing whatever The LORD asks of them! Founder, with wife Linda, of their ministry The Upper Room Encounter.
Yes Amen .
GOD timing is perfect
