Read Isaiah 53:5.
The cross brings healing of hearts, souls and bodies. So, if you are sick, cry out to Jesus! He will heal you - instantly or gradually or ultimately. He may heal you instantly. One word was enough for him to banish demons, heal epilepsy, and raise the dead. He may do this for you. Or He may heal you gradually in the case of a blind man from Bethsaida. Jesus healed him in stages (Mark 8:22-26). And don’t forget the story of Lazarus. He had been in the tomb for four days. But Jesus called him out. He will heal you. I pray he heals you instantly. He may choose to heal you gradually. But this much is sure: Jesus will heal us all ultimately. Wheelchairs, ointments, treatment, and bandages are confiscated at the gateway to heaven. God’s children will once again be whole. Because ultimately Jesus heals us all. (excerpts from Max Lucado: God is With You Everyday)
Spend some time sharing your heart with God. Thank him for His presence and comfort.
