Topic: We Must Receive
Luke 13:16 ‘And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?’
Luke 13:10-17
This sickness was the work of Satan – not the work of God. Jesus said it had bound her – not blessed her – for eighteen years. The teaching that says that sickness is actually a blessing in disguise, because the Lord is working His plan in one’s life, is not found in scripture. As Acts 10:38 says, Jesus ‘went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil,’ not ‘oppressed of God.’
There are 17 times in the Gospels when Jesus healed all of the sick that were present. There are 47 other times when He healed one or two people at a time.
Nowhere do we find Jesus refusing to heal anyone. Jesus said that He could do nothing of Himself, but only what He saw the Father do. His actions are proof enough that it is always God’s will to heal!
Jesus provided for physical healing as well as forgiveness of sins. The very word ‘save’ (Gk.-‘sozo’) is translated ‘made whole’ in reference to physical healing in Matthew 9:22, Mark 5:34, and Luke 8:48. James 5:15 says ‘the prayer of faith shall save (Gk.-‘sozo’) the sick.’ Many scriptures mention the healing of our bodies in conjunction with the forgiveness of our sins.
Healing is a part of our salvation, just as much as the forgiveness of our sins.
It is God’s will that no one should perish, but many do because of their unbelief. Likewise, it is God’s will that we all be healed, but not all are healed because of failure to believe. It is a mistake to assume that whatever God wills will automatically come to pass. We play a part in receiving from God. Believe His Word today.
