'And behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.” And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. ‘ (Matthew 8:2-3)
—Jesus is perfect Theology If you have seen me you have seen the Father He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature(Hebrews 1:3)Lense of the grace verses lense of the law Greatest all prophets least in Kingdom
We must remember when reading the old testament that they saw God through a veiled lens that is the law of Moses. They were crying out for Jesus whole we now have. We have to read the scriptures through the lens of Jesus otherwise we can come under a wrong spirit just as the disciples did. Repent and turn to Jesus!

Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual Healing are all part of the atonement just at the forgiveness of sins. God forgives all our sins and heals all of our diseases. (Psalm 103:3-5, Matthew 9:2-8)Jesus healed all that came to Him and showed us that it is always God’s will to heal.
'And behold, some people brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Take heart, my son; your sins are forgiven.” And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man is blaspheming.” But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’? But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins” —he then said to the paralytic— “Rise, pick up your bed and go home.” And he rose and went home. ‘ (Matthew 9:2-7)
' Bless the Lord , O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. (‘Psalm 103:2-5)
The bible tells us that the will of God is perfectly shown to us in Jesus Christ and that if we have seen Him, we also see the Father. Jesus is God and showed us that sickness is always God’s enemy.
“Surely He has borne our illnesses And carried our disease; 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.” (Isaiah 53:4-5)
“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 Peter 2:24)
“When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out 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.”” (Matthew 8:16-17)
—The devil roams around Resist the devil 2 Corinthians 11 devil comes as an angel of light deceived like Eve. They were already like God Do this or don’t do that you will be like God.
—Sickness Bad, healing and health good
Jesus demonstrated to us that sickness, disease and death are always evil and works of the devil. All one has to do is to simply read through the gospels and this will become evident. Jesus healed everyone who came to Him and never used sickness to teach, humble or correct anyone. He also never "allowed" for anyone to stay sick that came to Him for healing so they could learn patience or trust. Let us stop calling the evil of sickness and death, "good."
The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. (1 John 3:8)
how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. (Acts 10:38)
-God does not test or tempt with evil James
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. (James 1:17) —Light has no fellowship with darkness.
We have the victory though our Lord Jesus Christ and must not fall for the devils lies to ever see any of these evils as a tool God uses to teach us. While God works all things together for our good, He does not cause or even allow these things into our lives. The are illegal attacks from the enemy that we overcome through the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony, that is the testimony of Jesus Christ! We must remember according to James that God does not tempt/test us with evil and that according to Jesus all sickness disease and death are very evil and works of the devil.
Then a demon-oppressed man who was blind and mute was brought to him, and he healed him, so that the man spoke and saw. And all the people were amazed, and said, “Can this be the Son of David?” But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “It is only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons.”Knowing their thoughts, he said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand. And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.But if it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. (Matthew 12:-22-28)
Jesus made it very simple and clear for us when He said in John 10:10 “the thief comes only to kill, steal and destroy, I have come that you may have life and life abundantly.”
On the cross Jesus destroyed all sickness, sin and death. We have been purchased from sin and sickness. Jesus forgave sins and healed all diseases. The gospel includes salvation from sin and sickness.
—Grace is Sufficient! Grace is sufficient, power perfected in weakness does not mean we stay in it, but that victory is won. Paul didn’t stay there but won the victory
—-Curses vs. Blessings 'Now it is evident that no one is justified before God by the law, for “The righteous shall live by faith.” For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed be everyone who does not abide by all things written in the Book of the Law, and do them.” But the law is not of faith, rather “The one who does them shall live by them.” so that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promised Spirit through faith. Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree”— '(Galatians 3:10-14)
Deuteronomy 28 shows us that sickness and disease is a curse. It is poorly translated to say that the lord will cause these diseases, but this is not the case. These are the curse of the law and the wages of sin.
These People were looking through the lease of the law and believing that God was bringing these curses which are actually brought through sin and the curse of the law.
—-Job called out for a mediator, which we now have. He cried out for Jesus! He was calling out for the healer, who is Jesus.
'For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth. ‘ (Job 19:25)
—No Legal Right!
Jesus made it very simple and clear for us when He said in John 10:10 “the thief comes only to kill, steal and destroy, I have come that you may have life and life abundantly.”
The Court has sat in judgment.
' But the court shall sit in judgment, and his dominion shall be taken away, to be consumed and destroyed to the end. And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; his kingdom shall be an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.’ ‘ (Daniel 7:26-27)
'And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him. ‘ (Colossians 2:13-15)
According to the scriptures the devil is still active even though Jesus has already defeated HIm. He always acts illegally and never has any legal right to afflict anyone according to Colossians 2.
'For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.’ (Romans 6:23)
—-No Generational Curses
Any generational curses are broken through our faith in Jesus Christ when we become die with Him and are raised to new life becoming a new creation.
Ezekiel even said before the cross that the sins of the Father are not visited on their offspring.
'The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not suffer for the iniquity of the father, nor the father suffer for the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself. '(Ezekiel 18:20
From "Healing the Sick" by T.L. Osborn "No Glory in Suffering"
"You no longer take your place with Job of the Old Testament, thinking you must suffer sickness because Job suffered. You have learned that you are living in the post-Calvary epoch under grace and truth which sets you free from the curse of the law (Deut. 28:58-61)
A minister once told me some time ago: 'Every time I pray for the sick, either myself, my wife, or my child becomes ill.' Then He went on to tell me that he believed he must have these tests to prove his faith; that it was his duty to prove himself faithful in sickness in order for God to use him in the healing of others who were sick.
I asked him if he felt that he should prove himself faithful in sin in order for God to use him in preaching salvation to sinners.
Then I told him: 'The difference between your preaching and mine is that you are preaching and believing that you must suffer and be faithful before you can tell others that they can be healed. I tell people that Jesus has already suffered for them and for me- that, therefore, we can all enjoy the redemption which he has provided for us- that Jesus is the substitute-NOT ME.”
'For if, because of one man’s trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ. Therefore, as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men. '(Romans 5:17-18)—HEALED THEM ALL
And he went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction among the people. So his fame spread throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, those oppressed by demons, those having seizures, and paralytics, and he healed them. (Matthew 4:23-24)
And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. (Matthew 9:35)
'Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. And many followed him, and he healed them all (Matthew 12:15)
By His stripes you have already been healed!
