How
did Jesus heal? What did He want of the patients? This is another key
to divine health and wholeness living.
The
key truth: Jesus clearly stated that He is the Physician who heals
those who are sick and the God who has power on earth to forgive
sins.
(Luke
5:31-32)
All
who actually believed what Jesus said were healed.
Oftentimes
He just preached and taught the multitudes and the power of the Lord
was present to heal them! Luke 5:15
Here
are some verses spoken by Jesus and they revealed the truth that set
free!
_________Bible verses (NKJV) are taken from the Gospel According
to Luke, chapters 4-6:
describing the behavior, attitude,
belief of the 'patients' who came to Jesus for healing.
4:32-33 a man with an unclean demon cried out in the presence of
Jesus who was teaching,
for His word was with authority. The
man was listening to His word.
5:12 a man full of leprosy saw Jesus and fell on his face and
spoke out his faith in Jesus' power and authority to heal.
He acknowledged his uncleanness and need of cleansing, saying "Lord,
if You are willing, You can make me clean."
5:15 great multitudes
came together to hear Jesus'
teaching and to be healed by Him of their infirmities. They
believed in the power of the word Jesus spoke to heal them.
5:25 a paralyzed man
believed his sins were forgiven
because Jesus said so, and
obeyed the command of
Jesus
to rise up and take up his bed and walked back to his
own house.
5:27-28 a sinner (tax collector) Levi was saved from his sins by
obeying the command of Jesus to follow Him. He
left all, rose up, and followed Him.
6:10 a man with a withered right hand
believed in Jesus'
authority to override that of the synagogue authority (based
on Moses Law), and
obeyed Jesus' command to stretch
out his hand on Sabbath.
6:17-19 "great multitude of people came to
hear Him
and be healed of their
diseases, as well as
those tormented with
unclean spirits. And they were
all healed. And the whole multitude
sought to touch Him, for
power went out of Him and healed them all."
The
patients came, heard His word, believed the word, and even touched
Him (encountered His power)! Power
came out of Jesus as He preached the word. They believed and were healed.
