You Were Healed
“When evening came, they brought to him many possessed with demons. He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases.”” (Matthew 8:16-17 WEB)
How come Jesus could heal all these sinners who came to Him? Doesn’t death have the right to latch upon a sinner? Someone has to pay the price for that.
Yes, it is true. Every infirmity (weakness) and disease that Jesus healed, He also bore in His own body at the cross. He took all our sicknesses upon Himself.
What did Isaiah say?
“Surely he has borne our sickness, and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:4-5 WEB)
At the cross, Jesus was not punished for His own sins—He had always been sinless. Abba God placed our sins, sicknesses, and infirmities upon Jesus, and let the fire of His wrath fall upon Jesus as our substitute.
Since God’s wrath has been fully exhausted in Jesus’ body, there is none left for us who are now in Christ. Jesus righteously purchased our shalom (complete wellness and wholeness with nothing lacking or broken), causing us to be healed.
“who his own self bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness; by whose stripes you were healed.” (1 Peter 2:24 WEB)
Peter puts this truth in perspective for us. By the stripes that Jesus received, we WERE healed. Our healing happened at the cross.
Today, we who believe in Jesus are no longer sinners. Death has no right to latch upon us because we are resurrected beings, having already died to sin with Jesus at the cross.
We have received the righteousness of God, which is Jesus’ own righteousness. This gift of righteousness marks us for God’s grace. We are blessed with every blessing because we are the righteous!
If you see and experience symptoms of sickness or infirmity in your body, meditate on this message and let this truth sink into your heart: you were healed at the cross because Jesus paid the full price for it. When you clearly understand what happened, you will have boldness to take what is already yours!
