He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds.
Psalms 147:3 NLT
Healing can only happen for those who seek it and are willing to experience the process. Many people came to Jesus for physical healing, but gave Him a wide berth when the cost of anything more was explained: dying to self, picking up their cross , and following Him, and eating His flesh and drinking His blood. The last 2 were not literal, but rather pointed to breathing in all Christ had for them. I can hazard to guess that many diseases returned as people refused to repent and change their ways.
We see this today. It is easy to say the sinner's prayer, but harder to walk the walk. Therefore, many will disappear.
We can only offer the medicine, but cannot make them choose life. Amen!
