Jesus Heals the Sick

Matthew 4:23-24 (CEB) 23  Jesus traveled throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues. He announced the good news of the kingdom and healed every disease and sickness among the people. 24  News about him spread throughout Syria. People brought to him all those who had various kinds of diseases, those in pain, those possessed by demons, those with epilepsy, and those who were paralyzed, and he healed them.

Matthew 8:14-17 (CEB) 14  Jesus went home with Peter and saw Peter's mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever. 15  He touched her hand, and the fever left her. Then she got up and served them. 16  That evening people brought to Jesus many who were demon-possessed. He threw the spirits out with just a word. He healed everyone who was sick. 17  This happened so that what Isaiah the prophet said would be fulfilled: He is the one who took our illnesses and carried away our diseases.

Matthew 9:20-22 (CEB) 20  Then a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years came up behind Jesus and touched the hem of his clothes. 21  She thought, If I only touch his robe I'll be healed. 22  When Jesus turned and saw her, he said, "Be encouraged, daughter. Your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that time on.

Luke 4:40 (CEB) When the sun was setting, everyone brought to Jesus relatives and acquaintances with all kinds of diseases. Placing his hands on each of them, he healed them.

Our Father yet heals the spirit of amputees—even when they will not grow legs. And, once the spirit is healed, the legs can be done without.  Calvin Miller
