Free Healing Assessment — Why Am I Struggling to Receive Healing?

Question 1 of 14

When you picture God's posture toward you when you're sick or suffering, what comes to mind first?

A loving Father who is for me, moved with compassion, exactly like Jesus in the Gospels. A God who loves me but who I sometimes wonder is testing or teaching me through the sickness. A God whose intentions toward me in hard seasons feel unclear or mixed. I'm honestly not sure God's heart toward me changes anything about my healing.

Question 2 of 14

If Jesus is "the exact representation of God's nature" (Hebrews 1:3), what does that suggest about how God feels about sickness and disease?

Since Jesus healed the sick everywhere He went, that shows me God's heart toward sickness. I believe that's true in theory, but I still wonder if God sometimes wills sickness for a purpose. I've been taught both — that God heals and that God sometimes uses sickness — and I haven't settled it. I haven't really connected Jesus's healing ministry to what God is like.

Question 3 of 14

When you think about healing, where does your confidence mainly come from?

What Jesus already accomplished on the cross — I'm resting in a finished work, not trying to earn something. Mostly what Christ did, but I still feel like my performance or effort plays a big part. I'm not sure what the cross has to do with physical healing. I mostly think about healing as something I have to obtain through enough faith or effort.

Question 4 of 14

How would you describe your understanding of Isaiah 53 / "by His stripes we are healed"?

I understand it as part of the finished work of Christ, provided alongside forgiveness of sin. I've heard it taught but I'm still working out exactly what it means for today. It's a verse I know but haven't studied for myself. I don't know this passage or what it teaches.

Question 5 of 14

When you consider who you are in Christ, which statement feels most true of how you actually see yourself day to day?

I know I'm a new creation, righteous in Christ, and that identity shapes how I approach God. I know this is true doctrinally, but I don't always feel or live like it. I still mostly see myself through my past, my diagnosis, or my failures. I haven't thought much about my identity in Christ specifically.

Question 6 of 14

When you pray for healing, do you tend to approach God as a beloved child or as someone trying to get God's attention/approval?

As a beloved child — I already have access through Christ. Mostly as a child, but sometimes I feel I have to convince God or prove myself worthy. Honestly, more like I'm trying to earn a hearing. I'm not sure how I approach God when I pray for healing.

Question 7 of 14

When your circumstances or a diagnosis seem to contradict what Scripture says about healing, what usually happens in your thinking?

I actively renew my mind with Scripture and let God's Word have the final say over what I see and feel. I want Scripture to win, but my circumstances often feel louder than the Word. I go back and forth and I'm not sure which one should have more authority. My circumstances and past experiences mostly shape what I expect from God.

Question 8 of 14

How much has your thinking about healing been shaped by past disappointment (unanswered prayer, a loved one who wasn't healed, etc.)?

I've processed that pain and it doesn't control my expectations of God now. It still affects me some, and I know I need to keep renewing my mind in this area. It significantly shapes how much I expect from God now. I haven't really dealt with this, and I know it's affecting my faith.

Question 9 of 14

How would you describe your understanding of the difference between your spirit, soul, and body?

I understand these as distinct but connected — my spirit is made new, my soul needs ongoing renewal, and my body still needs physical healing. I have a general sense of this but haven't studied it much. I tend to collapse these into one thing — mostly "spiritual" or mostly "emotional." I've never really thought about spirit, soul, and body as distinct.

Question 10 of 14

Do you believe emotional/mental healing and physical healing are both part of what Jesus provides, without one replacing the other?

Yes — I hold both together; Jesus ministered to hearts and bodies, and so does His healing today. I lean that way, but I sometimes reduce healing to just emotional wellness or just physical outcomes. I mostly think of healing in one category (either emotional or physical) and not much the other. I haven't thought about how these connect.

Question 11 of 14

When healing doesn't come immediately, what is your internal response?

I keep resting in what Christ provided, without condemning myself or assuming I lack faith. I mostly trust God, but I do wonder sometimes if it's my fault. I often start examining myself for hidden sin, doubt, or "not enough faith." I tend to conclude that maybe healing just isn't for me or isn't happening.

Question 12 of 14

How would you describe the way you "receive" from God — striving or resting?

Resting — I trust what's already provided and receive it like a gift, not a reward. A mix — I know it should be resting, but I still catch myself striving. Mostly striving — trying to pray hard enough, believe hard enough, or do enough. I'm honestly not sure how to receive from God at all.

Question 13 of 14

How prepared and released do you feel to pray for healing over someone else?

I regularly pray for others' healing with confidence in the authority Christ gave believers. I'm willing, but I feel uncertain or under-equipped when I pray for others. I mostly leave praying for healing to pastors or "specially gifted" people. I've never really considered that I could minister healing to someone else.

Question 14 of 14

Right now, what would you most want a breakthrough in?

Physical healing in my body Emotional and mental healing (mind, memories, emotions) Both — I want a whole-person breakthrough I'm honestly not sure yet — I'm just here to learn
