A must read

Was Wimber a true man of God I am not sure I hope he was. THe book is good advice read it!

One of the best books in Healing and Deliverance

This would be one of the best books in the area of healing and deliverence. In the early Pentecostal days with lots of healings and deliverance taking place, what came lacking was the theology to healing and deliverance, and John Wimber wrote Power Healing at a time where a strong renewal theology in healing and deliverance was needed. This is not a book like those you get from the "Word of Faith" movements. This book is solidly grounded on the Word of God, not denying the reality of life, but faces them head on. This book deals with some very difficult issues, e.g. "Can Christians be demon possessed?" and "Why are all not healed?" I appreciate John's humility in writing this book, not as an expert, but as a practitioner discovering the heart of God in this subject matter. John wrote candidly and also the struggles he faced, and I believe you would be able to identify very much with what he wrote. I am most inspired by his perseverence and tenacity in praying for people to be healed. He began the healing ministry with no one getting healed for 10 months (how many of us would have given up already) but he pressed on believing in God's redemptive heart, of which healing is part of it all. Through his journey and discovery, he writes this book like a primer to the ministry of healing and deliverance, and this is a must read for anyone venturing into this area.

Power to Heal by God's Hands and Yours

He loves you and wants you healed! Books like this will build up your faith and get you started. More advanced: "The Power of Divine: A Healer's Guide" by Tiffany Snow and "Hands of Light" by Derek Prince.

Wimber is the Real Deal

John Wimber was a man who affected his generation. He loved the Lord and accepted healing as part of the atonement. He not only presents what he believes from a biblically sound perspective but he also went ahead and gave testimonies of healings that he witnessed. Only other authors this good on the subject might be F.F. Bosworth or Smith Wigglesworth.

An encouraging, biblical book on healing.

This is not a splashy, sensational account of testimonies to healing. Testimonies there are, but Wimbers excellent handling of the subject of healing is presented, not as evidence of the insights and abilities of Wimber, but, as Richard Foster comments in the Introduction, as a reminder "that at the very heart of God is the desire to give and forgive. [This] book encourages us to believe that God is good and that he desires to pour out his goodness into our hearts and lives." (p. xi) It would be difficult to recommend a more biblically-based book on healing that is also as practical and honest.
