To every sickness he has a healing
There are many doctors for every sickness under the sun. Some help heal others just provide remedies, because many illnesses do not have cures. There are sicknesses of the body, of the soul, and of the mind and more are coming. Statistics say that over 95% of the world’s population have some sort of health problem. While there is so much sickness today, there is a God who provides healing against those sicknesses. The Psalmist said that God is the one who forgives your sins and heals your wounds (Ps103:3). If you have a body illness God has a healing for that, that is what Jeremiah says God will restore your health (Jer30:17). And if your mind is wounded, because today more than ever mental illness is a pandemic type, God has a healing for that too (Ps147:3). The fact that many people are not being healed is a mystery. But one this for sure and that is that God’s willingness to heal you is ever present. Jesus’ mission was to save man, but only to save them but to heal them.
Malachi 4:2
2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth and grow up as calves of the stall.
It serves as a tangible expression of one’s devotion and connection to God. During prayer, the tallit is customarily wrapped above the shoulders, enveloping the individual in its sacred embrace.
That is why the prophet Malachi spoke of the Sun of righteousness as being Jesus. Along with the message of repentance and salvation, Jesus healed all who were sick and placed their faith on him. For example, there was centurion whose servant was sick in the death bed and told Jesus to just say the word that his servant was going to be healed. Now Malachi spoke that this Sun of righteousness was going to have healing in his wings, and this word is used the same as borders (Nu15:38). Jesus wore this mantle, which is called the tallit, of which was used to pray with as the Jewish men in those times and today as well. It was used to wrap oneself and seclude himself from the world in prayer and that is where we get the verse when you pray lock the door behind.
The mantle had tassels on the hem called Tzitzit in the four corners and all the sides of it reminded Jewish community that God requires faith and obedience to his commandments. The hem of Jesus’ garment is called the Tekhelet; from the root word Kahlah which means ‘finished’. It is this word ‘Kahlah’ that Jesus shouted on the cross. When we practice obeying God then his healing comes (1Jh3:22). Jesus went to Gennesaret after he feed five thousand people and walks to his disciples on water, where he finds many sick people. The men of the city brought all the sick from around the countryside and asked him if the sick can only touch the hem of his garments, and in obedience the sick did and were all healed (Mt14:34-36). Also, a woman who was about 12 years with an issue of blood who spent all she had in doctors with no avail (Mt9:20-21). She did as the scriptures said to cast her cares on him because he cares and to believe in the finish work. When God heals it is a complete work, his healings are whole and not partial.
Psalms 103:3
3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
Jeremiah 30:17
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.
Psalms 147:3
3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
Numbers 15:38
38 Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue:
1 John 3:22
22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
Matthew 14:34-36
34 And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.35 And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased;36 And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.
Matthew 9:20-21
20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.
