Try "Christ The Healer" by Bosworth.  He covers the subject extremely well.  We used this as our text in a Divine Healing course I taught at a local WOF Bible College.

AMEN!

Thank you Speak and Rose and everyone else

Doctor_Jonathan:

What unscriptural teachings have you (personally) heard or read concerning Paul's Thorn, his eyes, etc... and WHERE did you hear it? what kind of church, teacher?...

However, if my child does not heed my warnings and still puts his hand on a hot stove or plays in the street and I am not able to
prevent thenatural consequences from occurring, then I as his parent will use that situation to teach a valuable lesson. 
The bible tells us that God uses all things to work together for those who believe.... so although he will not cause such
situations, and in fact will tell us how to avoid such if we disobey He will use whatever happens for our benefit... even if that benefit is 'teaching us a lesson'!

There are many people who learn the hard way because they do not know what God's Word says...."My people perish for a lack of knowledge."  They will "get burned" or "hit by a car" because they are ignorant of what the Word says.  It can be tragic to learn this way because in it, the devil wants to destroy you, mame you, kill you...  God's best way to learn these things is by knowing what His Word says and then being obedient to His Word.  We often go through unnecessary things in our lives because we have taken what somone else has said about a situation, instead of taking what God's Word says.  The bottom line is we could save ourselves a lot of misery in life if we just knew God's Word better, believed it and then practiced it.

Amen!

And we can learn by other peoples mistakes so we won't have to go through that too. If we are sensitive to the Spirit of God He will show us things to avoid many of the tricks and traps of the enemy!

I agree with doc and all who are agreeing with Gods word.He is Good all the time and gives us the choices to believe His word or the traditions of man which will make the word of God to no affect. It depends on us ! If we believe His word ,and He cannot lie,then we prosper in all areas  if we believe traditional thinking ,thats all we are going to recieve[ NO AFFECT ]at least not in any good ways. In 2002 I was hit from behind by a drunk driver while I was waiting on traffic so I could turn into my driveway.The last thing I saw before I went unconscious was headlights from a big truck in the oncoming traffic but I screamed THE NAME OF JESUS before  and when I woke up I was on the other side of the road,and the man in the truck could not believe we didnt hit head on  but there is POWER in the Name .He transported me and my car all the way back over to the opposite shoulder of the road to keep me and the truck driver from dying.No One can tell me the Word of God doesnt work.I Am living proof and thats only one of the times the word of God has kept me alive.Oh my God You are GOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil.No way did the Lord God put that messenger from satan on Paul! And oh yes Gods Grace is always sufficient!!!!!!!!Shalom brothers and sisters

Praise God!!  The Name of Jesus is SO POWERFUL!  Thanks for the testimony!
