The Great Commission:

Mark
16:15–18.. the “Great Com­mis­sion.” It says, “Go into all the
world and preach the gospel to every crea­ture. He who believes and is bap­tized
will be saved; but he who does not believe will be con­demned. And these signs
will fol­low those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will
speak with new tongues; they will take up ser­pents; and if they drink any­thing
deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and
they will recover.” And Matthew 28:19–20Matthew 28:19–20
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV
19 Go ye there­fore, and teach all nations, bap­tiz­ing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teach…: or, make dis­ci­ples, or, Chris­tians of all nations ²⁰ Teach­ing them to observe all things what­so­ever I have com­manded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.  

WP-Bible plu­gin records a bit more of what Jesus
said regard­ing the great com­mis­sion. “Go there­fore and make dis­ci­ples of
all the nations, bap­tiz­ing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of
the Holy Spirit, teach­ing them to observe all things that I have com­manded you;
and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter pass­ing by might

9 And there sat in a win­dow a cer­tain young man named Euty­chus, being fallen

fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.

your­selves; for his life is in him.

14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anoint­ing him with oil in the name of the Lord:  

WP-Bible plu­gin Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church;
and let them pray over him, anoint­ing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord
shall raise him up; and if he have com­mit­ted sins, they shall be for­given him.

16 Con­fess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be
healed. The effec­tual fer­vent prayer of a right­eous man availeth much.

Jesus gave all believ­ers the same authority

He gave power and author­ity to his dis­ci­ples to heal the
sick and cast out demons.

Now, lets look at what a dis­ci­ple is:

A
dis­ci­ple is a “fol­lower of Jesus.” It is a per­son who has heard and
believed the good news.. that Jesus died for your sins (so you don’t have to)
then He rose from the dead and con­quered the power of sin and death.

What
does not make you a disciple:

• Attend­ing church
  does not make you a disciple.
• Hav­ing prayed the
  “sinner’s prayer” and then con­tin­u­ing to live like you did before you
  prayed it does not make you a disciple.

A
true dis­ci­ple is:

• If you are a
  dis­ci­ple, then the Holy Spirit lives inside of you and He works to change you
  to be more like Jesus, and you choose to coop­er­ate with Him.
• If you are a
  dis­ci­ple, you are devel­op­ing inti­macy (close friend­ship) with God and you are
  learn­ing to hear His voice, and you are com­mit­ted to obey what He tells you to
  do.
• God will begin to
  work in your heart to change your very desires (as per Psalm 51) to line up
  more closely with His desires.

Does that mean we don’t ever sin
again?

No – we are all sin­ners and fall
short of the glory of God.

 

Author­ity to Heal

We don’t just have
author­ity to heal the sick, Jesus actu­ally com­manded us to do so. He started by
giv­ing this author­ity and com­mand to His dis­ci­ples. He did this in Luke 9:1–2Luke 9:1–2
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV
9 ¹ Then he called his twelve dis­ci­ples together, and gave them power and author­ity over all dev­ils, and to cure dis­eases. ² And he sent them to preach the king­dom of God, and to heal the sick.  

WP-Bible plu­gin.
It says, “Then He called His twelve dis­ci­ples together and gave them power
and author­ity over all demons, and to cure dis­eases. He sent them to preach the
king­dom of God and to heal the sick.” Verse 6 says, “So they departed
and went through the towns, preach­ing the gospel and heal­ing every­where.“
Do you see this… Jesus gave them the author­ity and guess what.. it worked
when they tried it. They used Jesus’ author­ity to pray for the sick, just like
Jesus told them to, and the sick were healed. I imag­ine this was a pretty big
thrill for the dis­ci­ples the first few times they tried it … and it worked!

Also, look at John
14:12–14 .. Jesus tells us that are given author­ity to do what­ever things He
did and work the same works Jesus did. Jesus healed the sick, didn’t He? So
John 14:12–14John 14:12–14
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV
12 Ver­ily, ver­ily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. ¹³ And what­so­ever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glo­ri­fied in the Son. ¹⁴ If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.  

WP-Bible plu­gin tells us that we can heal the sick too… but verse 15 gives the
con­di­tion for mov­ing in this heal­ing author­ity. It says, as we have dis­cussed
ear­lier, “If you love me, you will obey me.” So again we see the tie
between mov­ing in Jesus power and author­ity and in a lifestyle of obe­di­ence to
Him.. e.g, being His disciple.
