How do I confess healing Scriptures aloud?

Read the verse in context, then say out loud what it reveals about God and turn it into a prayer. In Baker’s teaching, confession means giving voice to faith in God’s Word.

Read the passages in context

Hebrews calls believers to hold fast to their confession of hope because God is faithful. It immediately turns toward gathering and encouraging others. Psalm 103 gives an example of speaking directly to your own soul and remembering God’s benefits.

Put the reading into practice

Try reading Psalm 103:1–5, then saying, “Lord, I remember Your mercy and ask You for strength today.” Keep a clear distinction between a verse quoted exactly and your own prayer based on it. Speak honestly about symptoms when talking with your clinician.

Questions & answers

Questions readers ask

Explore all FAQs →
How is a confession different from a Scripture quotation?

A quotation repeats the words of a named Bible translation. A confession can put your response to that passage into your own words.

Can I pray for healing while receiving medical care?

Yes, praying for divine healing and receiving professional medical care can go together. James 5:13–16 encourages believers to pray for the sick. Talk with your clinician before changing any prescribed treatment or medication. MedlinePlus guidance ↗
