“Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed.” — Jeremiah 17:14
“I have seen His ways, and will heal him.” — Isaiah 57:18
It is the sole prerogative of God to remove spiritual disease. Natural disease may be instrumentally healed by men, but even then the honour is to be given to God who giveth virtue unto medicine, and bestoweth power unto the human frame to cast off disease. As for spiritual sicknesses, these remain with the great Physician alone; He claims it as His prerogative, “I kill and I make alive, I wound and I heal”; and one of the Lord’s choice titles is Jehovah-Rophi, the Lord that healeth thee. “I will heal thee of thy wounds,” is a promise which could…
not come from the lip of man, but only
from the mouth of the eternal God. On this account the psalmist cried unto
the Lord, “O Lord, heal me, for my bones are sore vexed,” and again, “Heal
my soul, for I have sinned against thee.” For this, also, the godly praise the
name of the Lord, saying, “He healeth all our diseases.” He who made man
can restore man; He who was at first the creator of our nature can new
create it. What a transcendent comfort it is that in the person of Jesus
“dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily!” My soul, whatever thy
disease may be, this great Physician can heal thee. If He be God, there can
be no limit to His power. Come then with the blind eye of darkened
understanding, come with the limping foot of wasted energy, come with
the maimed hand of weak faith, the fever of an angry temper, or the ague of
shivering despondency, come just as thou art, for He who is God can
certainly restore thee of thy plague. None shall restrain the healing virtue
which proceeds from Jesus our Lord. Legions of devils have been made to
own the power of the beloved Physician, and never once has He been
baffled. All His patients have been cured in the past and shall be in the
future, and thou shalt be one among them, my friend, if thou wilt but rest
thyself in Him this night.
