Have you ever found yourself wondering, “Will God heal me if I come to Him?”
The answer to your question found in God’s own Word is this: Yes, He will. For this simple reason: He loves you.
In the Gospels, we see how people from near and far would bring their sick to Him for healing. Jesus didn’t turn them away or put them through a “sin-test” first. The Bible says, “whatever their sickness or disease, or if they were demon possessed or epileptic or paralyzed—he healed them all” (Matt. 4:24 NLT).
His Love Says, ‘I Am Willing and Able.’
Have you ever had someone you love fall sick? You probably hated whatever disease they were suffering from, simply because you loved them and could not bear to see them in pain.
In the same way, Jesus hates sickness because He loves us. Once, Jesus was “moved with compassion” when He saw a great multitude of people. The result of this flow of compassion for them? He “healed their sick” (Matt. 14:14). When perfect love found people suffering from ailments, symptoms, and disorders, He couldn’t help but drive out this root of suffering.
Do you remember the story of the man with leprosy? With desperation and tears, the man must have sought out the Lord. And to his request of “Lord, if you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean”, the One who has all the power in the world to heal said to him, “I am willing. Be healed,” before completely cleansing the man (see Matt. 8:2–3 NLT).
