I believe in both because all good things come from GOD.

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses. Matt 8:17
My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. Proverbs 4:20-22
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: 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. James 5:14-15
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. John 15:7
But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. James 1:6-8
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Mark 16:17-18

1Corithians 12:4-11
4*Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5*And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. 7*But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
8*For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9*to another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10*to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: 11*but all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
1Corithians 12:27-31
27*Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. 28*And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. 29*Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? 30*Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? 31*But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
James 5:13-16
3*Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
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: 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.
I know that some have misused the gifts given to them in every area concerning the body of Christ. The bible declares that this will happen. Please don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Instead let's grow and mature thru every situation and become the Bride.

My belief on this subject, faith is stronger, yes. Faith can move mountains, faith can do A LOT! But I also believe God did put doctors on earth for a purpose. My brother had a hernia, and we prayed that God would heal him. God used a doctor. I feel that God's not always going to do a miracle in healing. He may do it at that time, He may not. God is the Great Physician, but He's also got some trained in the work here on earth also. God's plan is His, not ours. His ways are not our ways, His thoughts, aren't ours. My opinion. Do what ya want with it.

I Agree, I Go With Faith
yes, I go with faith and it is in eveything. As it is written in Isaiah 53:5 that by the stripes of Jesus, we're healed. If we are a Christian, we will believe on it while doctors, medicines, they are for the unbelievers. But may I say, that if you can stand on the Word of God without having to take a medicine, very good. But if you can't, go ahead and take a medicine. It depends upon your faith. But I go with the Word of od alone, by faith.
