True Healing Comes From The Creator
The life of Jesus Christ, as He walked this earth, He met many who were diseased with many physical maladies and spiritual disease, whether it was brought upon them by their own negligence or from birth. In the bible there are several accounts of persons who received healing from God.
In Luke 8:43-47, there is an account of a woman having an issue of blood some twelve years, she had spent all her living upon physicians without success until she came in touch with the Healer. Her health was fully restored in fact as it is recorded she was made Whole.
Yet in another account John 9:1-3 Jesus passed by and saw a man which was blind from his birth. The disciples asked him, who or what was responsible for the man being born blind. Jesus The Healer answered, neither has this man sinned, nor his parents. Jesus did not refuse to heal any person in need of healing. Many longed to see Jesus to receive forgiveness and physical restoration.
Disease is an effort of nature to free the system from conditions that results from the violation of the laws of health. - Ministry of Healing pg. 127.
Our world today has always been plagued with many diseases and the sufferings of mankind. Only our Lord Saviour Jesus Christ can impart and restore vigour to the mind and bring health to the body.
Exodus 15:26 records that the Lord God made a promise with ancient Israel that none of these diseases would be brought upon them. But the promise had a condition which entailed doing that which was right in His sight and to give ear to His commandments and keep all His statues. “For I am the Lord that healeth thee”. This condition is obedience.
This promise is true for us today, we can receive healing and restoration. We should never feel that Christ is far away. He has promised that he is always near. Jeremiah 30:17 “For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after”. Psalm 34:18 “The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit”.
Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. - WHO (World Health Organization)
