Jesus was the great transmitter to humanity of a knowledge of the power of divine healing; he never specialized. He never said: "I have cured your liver complaint, or your lungs are healed," etc., according to the ailment of the person seeking his aid. It was spoken of God long ago: "He healeth all our infirmities."
If only you will go, sick and broken, to Him, and trust in His great sacrifice, and open your hearts to the influx of His healing power, He will give you 'perfect soundness'; and your song will be, 'Bless the Lord, O my soul.... Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth thy diseases. May it be so with each of us!
Haste thou to life before death cometh; haste thou to the spring season before autumn draweth in; and before illness striketh, haste thou to healing—that thou mayest become a physician of the spirit who, with the breaths of the Holy Spirit, healeth all manner of sickness in this famed and glorious age. O leaf upon the Tree of Life!
Murray glanced at him in surprise and saw his face set in angry pain. "The Lord knows best, Ranald," she said, gravely, "and loves best, too." "It will break her heart, whatever," answered Ranald, shortly. "He healeth the broken in heart," said Mrs. Murray, softly.

And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.
Deeply touching were those fervent words read out with solemn earnestness and pathos by the young man, in the presence of those he loved so dearly, specially when he lingered on the third and fourth verses, "Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies."
He was crucified for our offences, and He lives to bestow upon us the fullness of His own holiness. So the monster's heads are smitten off. Our disease and the tendency to it, and the weakness consequent upon it, are all cast out from us, and He reveals Himself as 'the Lord who healeth thee.
"Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge." And the women in their turn took up the chant, and from their grateful breasts rose clear and strong the Psalm of David: "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits. "Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases.
Bless the Lord, oh my soul! and all that is within me bless his holy name; Who forgiveth all thy iniquities and healeth all thy diseases, Who saveth thy life from destruction, and crowneth thee with loving kindness and tender mercies. I must now introduce you to Mrs. Fisher. She is so great a favorite of mine, that before I relate what became of Myra, I must make you acquainted with this lady.
He woundeth and He healeth, He formeth the embryo in the womb of the mother and bringeth it forth into the world, He causeth the plants and the trees to grow, He killeth and He maketh alive, He bringeth down to Sheol and bringeth up." When the people heard such words, they would ask, "How shall we return thanks to God and manifest our gratitude unto Him?"
