The healing of the Lord.

[gordon777]

The healing Jesus did was to fulfil what was written of Him, to take our infirmities and to cast the unclean spirit out of the land.

It is just like John the Baptist did water baptism, but said how Jesus will baptize with the Holy Ghost and with fire. (Matthew 3:11.)

Jesus had to fulfil what was written of Him , but the people could not believe even though they saw the miracles of healing, because to convert and be healed of the heart is the true healing of the Lord.

Jesus also to all the ones He healed, only spoke to every one in parables, to fulfil what was told, by hearing you shall hear and shall not understand. ( so the same is by the healing of the wicked spirit cast out, by healing they were healed, but were not healed in the heart and spirit, as when the unclean spirit is cast out the Holy Spirit needs to enter, otherwise the state of that man is worse than the first, as the unclean spirit enters into them again. Which is why Is Israel was cured of sickness of the body, but not of the spirit ( that requires belief in Christ to be converted.)




These verses reveal how Gods word will heal our heart ( which is the binding of our wounds.) by God turning man away from evil..




Psalm 147:3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

Proverbs 3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.
8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

Proverbs 4:20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

Proverbs 12:18 There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.

Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.





Jesus Himself took our infirmities.

But the peoples heart was fat, and they failed to understand to be healed. ( from unbelief.)

Jesus did many miracles among them, ( healed all.) but the people cannot believe by healing or by signs and miracles, they believe by hearing the report, if their ears are not dull of hearing. That is the converting, that is the healing of Christ. ( bodily healing is what a man does only, instead.)






Isaiah 6:10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.

John 12:37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:
38 That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,
40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.


Matthew 8:16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.






If our body is healed( by a physician, or faith healer, whatever anyone calls themselves.) that is not the end of the story, and therefore it is insignificant( the end of a matter is all that matters.)

If the spirit is cast out, even as Jesus cast the unclean spirit out, that unclean spirit goes right back in, but is even more wicked than before, and that is why we have that confirmed how the people hear the testimony of Christ, but turn from the truth, it is then worse for them.

That is why conversion ( true healing of Christ.) is by being humble as a little child, and to convert as a little child to receive Jesus Christ.( no faith healer can humble our heart, so they can achieve nothing that we need achieving.)

As shown, Jesus spoke to the same people He healed, only in parables. The healing then was for fulfilling all that was written of Jesus, nothing more and nothing less, but the ones who can understand the parables of the righteousness of the Kingdom of Heaven, have their heart healed through the Spirit of Christ. ( then the unclean spirit does not return.)







2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

Matthew 12:43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.
44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.
45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.

Matthew 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

Matthew 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

 

[gordon777]

That is the Son of God restoring salvation to man, with His free Spirit, and how transgressors are converted to God( through belief in Jesus Christ and His dying and rising again the third day for our iniquities and wounds.)


Elders of the church had the same role as Jesus, to show the signs of the Lord in healing, because the true conversion is again told, for those who err from the truth, to be converted to the truth( which is in Christ Jesus and not from man.)



Psalm 51:12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.


James 5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

James 5:19 Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;
20 Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.

Ephesians 4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:







The stripes we are healed of, are as told, to heal man to live after righteousness, because we were sickly and dying in our sins ( through unbelief of Christ.)


Jesus then was wounded to death for our transgressions, and by that death is what heals us( if we live with Him in belief unto righteousness.)

For mans iniquity God was angry, and we were smitten to death, but God healed us, because He saw our ways ( of unbelief and then dying in our sins.) but God healed us by leading us( as the good Shepherd who gave His life for us and then He is the way and the truth and the life. John 14:6.) and God restores comforts to the mourners, as we now believe in life. ( the life of Jesus Christ. John 1:4. )

But the wicked cant be healed, nor can the wicked have peace( the peace that Jesus Christ gives, not like the world John 14;27, who heals in body and through glory to men.)







1 Peter 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Isaiah 57:17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.

Isaiah 57:19 I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the Lord; and I will heal him.

Isaiah 57:20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.







The Spirit preached to the poor and then to them, to heal the broken hearted. That is to set t liberty those who are bruised( of the devil.)

Jesus healed all of their infirmities, and they who were vexed with unclean spirits, were healed. Virtue went out of Christ and healed them all.

Jesus gave commandment to the disciples to heal the sick, ( as signs.) and to preach to them that the Kingdom of God then is near to them.

After Jesus died and rose( to give the Holy Ghost to stop the unclean spirit from returning to man who was healed.) signs and wonders were done by the Apostles to know the name of Gods Holy child Jesus.

Then the Apostles healed every one that was vexed of unclean spirits.

But Apostle Paul stated how the same continued for everyone, how their ears are dull of healing and how understanding in the heart is how the heart is healed, which Apostle Paul turned to the Gentiles to preach.







Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

Luke 5:15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

Luke 6:18 And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.

Luke 6:19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.

Luke 10:9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

Acts 4:29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

Acts 5:16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

Acts 28:27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.

Now from God, Apostle Paul reveals how some had that gift of healing ( from the Lord.) but now we are shown a MORE EXCELLENT WAY.

If anyone had a gift of prophecy, ( or healing or anything.) and they have not got charity( the gift of charity.) they are NOTHING.

The gift of prophecy fails, the gift of tongues fails, because it is in part, and when that which is perfect( put on charity the bond of perfection.) then that which is in part( the gifts of prophecy, tongues and healing) shall be done away.

That is because as Isiah revealed, for charity to be in man, then his heal comes forth speedily ( no need for anyone who claims to have the gift of healing, as it was for signs as we have been testified by the Lord.)








1 Corinthians 12:30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.

1 Corinthians 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

1 Corinthians 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

Colossians 3:14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.



Isaiah 58:7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?
8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.







This is the true testimony, this is the Lord healing our backslidings ( as sheep going astray.1 Peter 2:25.)

It is God healing us, that saves us( the healing that saves us is the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and is definitely not the glory men seek by claiming they heal us through their gift of faith.) and Jesus heals us through revealing to us the abundance of peace and truth.

Man is cleansed healed and cured by being forgiven our iniquities( through Jesus Christ alone who died for us., so do not let men have glory in men.)







Jeremiah 3:22 Return, ye backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the Lord our God.

Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.

Jeremiah 33:6 Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.

Jeremiah 33:8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.

 

[gordon777]

Here God makes it clear how the so called leaders of the people do not ( and cannot heal) anyone.

But the Shepherd Himself came to strengthen that which was sick ( His strength is made perfect in our infirmities, as then the strength of God is made perfect in us when His Spirit rests on us.) So unlike the ones who pretend to heal us and who claim we need their help, we take pleasure in infirmities ( if it is Gods will for us.) then when we are weak, then we are STRONG.








Ezekiel 34:4 The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.


Ezekiel 34:16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.

2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.







All of the Lords Heavenly testimony speaks of the healing that Jesus accomplished( which the people of this world cant believe in) which is after two days God binds us up( through the stripes of Christ we are healed.) revives us( to live again in His sight) and by belief in Jesus being risen the third day, we are risen up with Christ to live in His sight.

Jesus has the purpose of casting the unclean spirit out of the land.

That is why Jesus fulfilled casting the unclean spirits out, as we saw in the legion being cast out of the land and into the sea.

The Sun of righteousness arose with healing in His wings, and then the righteous shines forth as the Sun in the Kingdom of their Father. ( only those with ears opened by the Lord can be healed.)









Hosea 6:1 Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
2 After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.

Zechariah 13:2 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

Mark 5:13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

Malachi 4:2 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.

Matthew 13:43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.






Finally, here is the revelation of the Lord.

The false prophets who rise to deceive many, ( Matthew 24:11.) are after the working of satan ( satan who was in everyone Christ was casting the unclean spirit out of)

The false prophets come with deceit, to stand against the love of the truth.

But Go has chosen us to salvation, through belief of the truth, which is sanctification of the Spirit. ( Christ healing us and not satan.)

The beasts example is of healing and the world wonders after the beast who was healed.

All the earth is then caused to worship the beast who had healing, of a deadly wound ( because that is the role of those with false signs and wonders to claim they heal man, when they do not.)

But, all we had to do was continue to Revelation 22, for how our healing does come( and not to believe in the healing of satan.) which is the tree of life whose leaves were for the healing of the nations. ( Jesus Christ and the Word, is the Tree of Life, as in Him was life, and the Life was the Light of men.)








2 Thessalonians 2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.


Revelation 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

Revelation 22:2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
