HEALING AND THE FORGIVENESS OF SIN

Isaiah 33:24 (LB, CEV), Matthew 9:2 (TPT)

The people of Israel will no longer say, “We are sick and helpless,” for the Lord will forgive them their sins and bless them. *The LORD will forgive your sins, and none of you will say, “I feel sick.” …some people brought a paraplegic man to him, … When Jesus perceived the strong faith within their hearts, he said to the paralyzed man, “My son, be encouraged, for your sins have been forgiven.”

Every evil and negative situation in the world was brought about by Adam’s sin, but thanks be to God that Jesus came as the Lamb of God to take away the sins of the world (John 1:29, Rom.5:17). While paying the penalty for sin, Jesus also provided God’s perfect solution to every evil and negative situation in the world.

When Jesus was wounded for our iniquities and bruised for our transgressions, He bore our griefs, carried our sorrows, paid for our peace, and healed us (Isa.53:4-5). In addition to the forgiveness of our sins, our bodies have been healed, we have been set free from the power of the devil, and we have been abundantly provided for. According to 1 Peter 2:24, Jesus bore our sins on His body, and by His stripes, we were healed.

In our second text above, Jesus told the paralyzed man his sins were forgiven, and then he healed him. Beloved, I am pleased to inform you that because your sins have been forgiven, you are blessed, healed, and free, and the miracle you seek has already been granted. Because you have been forgiven, you no longer have any reason to be sick or helpless in any aspect of your life, as stated in our first text above. This is why people experience God’s power when they hear and believe the Gospel.

Faith Declaration:
By the stripes of Jesus, I am healed. As Jesus paid and took away my sins, He paid and took sickness away from me also.
