Revelation 3:14 NIV, Jesus calls himself the ruler of God's creation. Think about that. Jesus is the Ruler of Nature. Anything in nature, Jesus has control of.

Matthew 8:23-27 tells us that it is founded in Faith to believe that such should be done. Just acknowledge to Jesus in your prayers for healing that you accept that He is the Ruler of Nature and proof will be granted.
Same post as you made the first time around and same errors as before.
Jesus is the Creator.
Sorry Cbou, the NIV is NOT a word for word translation, it is a dynamic equivalency so you are taking a word not from the original and building a whole doctrine upon it.
These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

Jesus is the Creator
John 1:
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
What you are teaching is a formula which will fall short just like so much of the Word of Faith teachings, that teach through positive confession to create our own reality.
Daily we as Believers should place our faith and trust in Christ and leave it entirely up to Him to bring us through storms and if it be His will to take us Home.
There is such a propensity within the Charismatic realm to take one word or passage of scripture and launch a whole new revelation which is contrary to the whole counsel of God. The context of each passage must be in unity with the whole of God's Word.
Romans 8:
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
