The ascension of Christ to the right hand of God where He right now is praying for us is a glorious truth. It gives us confidence that God acts and heals today in miraculous ways. But any theology of healing must be held with a view of God's completely sovereignty - "our God is in Heaven, He does whatever He wants" (Psalm 115.3) which means God does not need our permission to act and if He does not heal then there is a reason which is, though we cannot understand, good and holy.
