You say:

“First comes surrender than deliverance and then healing !”

Please elaborate on the “surrender” that leads to deliverance. How do you believe one accomplishes this?

13 “When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, 14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 15 Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. 16 I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there.

We were forgiven by Jesus on the cross but repentance comes from opening our hearts to the Spirit of the living God for where the spirit of the Lord is there is freedom right ?!
Jesus said go and sin no more that something worse come upon you ?!
Jesus said he left us the comforter for a reason and if we receive his gift fully of the Holy Spirit than Isaiah 11:2 comes alive in us first by The spirit of the Fear of The Lord than the others begin to open our eyes and ears .
It does not end with just receiving Jesus as our Lord and Savior .
We must press in to hear his voice for as you well know all his sheep hear his voice fluently \o/

Ephesians 1:2-14

2Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Spiritual Blessings in Christ
3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5he[a] predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— 6to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace 8that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. 9And he[b] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.
11In him we were also chosen,[c] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.

A marked deposit which means we have to invest our time into Jesus to receive more !
