Q: Should I go to the doctor if I’m standing in faith for healing?

Kenneth and Gloria Copeland are not against doctors or medicine. In fact, they thank God for them. They see their doctor for regular check-ups and have hosted several different Christian doctors on the Believer’s Voice of Victory broadcasts over the years.

Going to the doctor is not a hindrance to faith, nor is going without doctors or medicine necessarily an act of faith. God will meet each person at his or her level of faith, and He will often direct His people to see a doctor. You can see a doctor and apply your faith at the same time. God will give you wisdom and peace about how to proceed with any recommended treatments. 

Whatever your decision, let it be made in faith, with the leading of the Holy Spirit and from a place of wisdom and a peace in your heart (Colossians 3:15).
