He Healed Them All

One of the great titles given to our Lord Jesus Christ is the "Great Physician." Christians coined Jesus this nickname for a very good reason. Because the book of Matthew teaches us:

Matthew 12:15 "Great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them all."

 

If one is not careful, she or he will miss the magnitude of what this scripture is telling us in this great scripture. Notice that Matthew does not write "He healed some" or "He healed many", but,
"He healed them all!"

 

Now, one must also remember Jesus lived during a time before modern medicine and the amount of pain and suffering from disease and sickness was much more than anything we can see today. These were the days of rampant leprosy, blindness, and untreated mental illness. One could only imagine the mass numbers of people who flocked to Jesus for healing from the "Great Physician" when they heard He was near. What Jesus saw must have been overwhelming. Everything from the helpless blind to the those infected with gruesome festering sores from leprosy, Jesus must have witnessed it all. And,
"He healed them all!"

 

We are so set on remembering the few stories we read from the Bible about Jesus' healing, but I believe His healings were in the thousands or tens of thousands. Jesus did not let one single sick or infected person pass Him by without healing. I believe what Matthew teaches us when he wrote,
"He healed them all!"
I also believe that Jesus has the same power today. He still has the power to,
"Heal them all!"
All we must do is believe! Jesus will and can heal you and your loved ones according to God's will.
Jesus is still the "Great Physician!"
