Jesus Saved Me Part XV

Healing

Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. Isa 53:4-5

When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast our the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying; “He “Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses.” Matt 8:16-17

And behold, a leper came and worshiped Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” Then Jesus put our His hand and touched him, saying, “ I am willing; be cleaned.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed. Matt 8:2-4

…who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness –by whose stripes you were healed. I Pet 2:24

In Isaiah 53:4-5, Isaiah prophesied concerning the Messiah. In Matt 8:16-17, Matthew provided a New Testament commentary on Isaiah. Jesus healed all and fulfilled Isaiah 53:4-5. Jesus took our infirmities and carried away our sicknesses. Jesus came to save (sozo = completely in every way)us from anything that would defeat us- wrath of God, sin, sickness, poverty, and death.
