By reading through the Gospels, the evidence is clear: Christ was focused on healing. It was one of the main acts of compassion that He performed as He traveled around spreading His message of love and the kingdom of God. As word spread of His healing miracles, people came from all over Israel to find Him and be healed. Huge crowds formed wherever He went, and He healed everyone that was sick.

You might be thinking, “That’s not fair! Jesus came over 2,000 years ago and performed all His healing miracles. What about me today?!” It is understandable that you might believe you are shutout of Christ’s healing ways, that His powers were only available to the lucky ones during His time on earth. However, the Good News is that Christ’s saving and healing powers are available to everyone from all time–including you. No one is shutout from His love.

Great crowds came to him, having with them the lame, the blind the deformed, the mute, and many others. They placed them at his feet, and he cured them. – Matthew 15:30
