Mathew chap 9:2
And they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, "Take courage, son; your sins are forgiven."
Here, what we observe is, instead of Jesus telling "your are healed" He said "your sins are forgiven"..
We see two types of healing here:- Spiritual healing and Physical healing.
We have to concentrate on the healing that we require.
We may get a physical healing by a physician..but only Jesus can provide us Spiritual healing.
We must see how He used his powers to heal Spiritual sickness rather than Physical ones.
He understood that rather than healing the paralytic man physically, he needed Spiritual healing.......the man's body as well as Spirit were paralysed with sins. We should know that physical healing was not Jesus's concern. He wanted to give us physical healing so that we believe in Him and thus our souls be rescued from sins.
As soon as the man's sins were forgiven he got up and walked... Amazing...
This verse leads us to think and know that we need our sins to be forgiven if we want healing...both Spiritual and physical..
I would love to hear your comments as well add up your points.
