Healed

I could tell many stories of physical healing for sure. From small cuts to broken bones, healing was needed, and healing took place. Our bodies are created in such a way that they heal themselves – sort of.  I am a believer in Creator God. I believe that He is the Healer for sure.

I have heard stories of physical healing that seems impossible. I do struggle to believe in some of the “healing moments”.  I wonder what it would have been like to see a cripple man’s legs become straight right on the spot. I wonder what it would be like to see a grown man, born blind, see for the very first time – healed by Jesus.

I came across the story of Bartimaeus where Jesus healed him then and there. Check this out….

⁴⁶ Then they reached Jericho, and as Jesus and his disciples left town, a large crowd followed him. A blind beggar named Bartimaeus (son of Timaeus) was sitting beside the road. ⁴⁷ When Bartimaeus heard that Jesus of Nazareth was nearby, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”

⁵¹ “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked.

“My Rabbi,” the blind man said, “I want to see!”

⁵² And Jesus said to him, “Go, for your faith has healed you.” Instantly the man could see, and he followed Jesus down the road. (Mark 10:46-47,51-52 NLT)

I love that Jesus asked Bart what he wanted.

I love that Jesus explained that it was faith that brought healing.

I love that the healing was instant.

I love that Jesus told Bart to go, that his faith had healed him and instead he followed Jesus down the road.

I am following Jesus today because of the healing He’s done in my heart.

I am following Jesus today because He rescued me from a life of destruction.

I am following Jesus today because of His amazing and unbelievable love for me.

I do believe the healing that the Lord does in my heart is on-going for the rest of my life.

Pressing On!
