Healing the Sick

Mark 1:30 And Simon's mother-in-law was lying down with a fever, and immediately they told Him about her. 31 And He came to her and raised her up, holding her hand, and the fever left her, and she served them. 32 And when evening fell and the sun had set, they brought to Him all those who were ill and those who were demon possessed. 33 And the whole city was gathered together at the door. 34 And He healed many who were ill with various diseases, and He cast out many demons and did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

This fever may signify a person's unbridled temper, a temper that is abnormal. Sickness is an issue of sin and a sign of man's abnormal condition before God because of sin. The fourth thing the Slave-Savior did to rescue sinners, as another part of His gospel service, was to heal their sick condition both physically and spiritually and restore them to normal so that they might serve Him (1:34). Today every fallen human being is sick. Many are sick physically, and all are sick spiritually. Because every fallen person is spiritually sick, we must learn to preach the gospel and teach the truth like physicians. This means that in our teaching and preaching we should give people a heavenly prescription, a divine medicine for their healing. All the saints [believers] should learn how to preach the gospel and teach the truth in such a way that people are healed. As we are teaching and preaching, we should give others an injection of spiritual medicine that will heal them. The church people should be so equipped that in their preaching and teaching spiritual medicine is supplied to people in order that they may be spiritually healed. (c) Living Stream Ministry.
