The Healing


Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; your righteousness will go before you and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Then you will call and the Lord will answer; you will call for help and He will say: "Here am I."

Isaiah 58:8-9


 

The Healing

Cancer is a tough disease—not just for the person who has it, but for their family also. When first diagnosed with it, many people feel their life is over. Although family and friends try to make life easier, it’s still hard for them to fully understand the pain the person goes through, both physically and emotionally. Often, the person with cancer can feel like they’ve hit bottom and have only two choices: give up and die, or rely on God for their healing.

That was the case of the woman with the serious bleeding problem in Matthew 9:20-22. Having had this condition for over twelve years, she knew she only had two options and she wasn’t willing to die. Instead, she put her faith in the One who claimed to be the Son of God. Having faith in Him, she stretched out her hand and touched the hem of his robe, and was instantly healed. Did his robe have some magical healing power? No. Was her healing caused by something she did? Yes…but only in the sense that she—having no other option—reached out to the only one that could save her.

Her healing finally came after many years of searching. God can use people in the medical profession or He can do miracles. You can trust Him to heal you, no matter how long or what form it takes. Ultimately, God wants to heal you as much as you want to be healed. Once you trust the One your healing comes from, you will not be disappointed!

Today’s One Thing

Although God often uses man to heal, trust in God alone for perfect, complete healing.
