But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all.
What a day in the ministry of Jesus! It?s amazing that in a large crowd there wasn?t one there that day who was to give God glory by being sick. There wasn?t one there that was supposed to learn something by suffering disease. There wasn?t one there that God?s will was for them to stay sick. There really are no such persons. There really aren?t any that Jesus says no to when it comes to their healing. How do I know? I know because Jesus ?healed them all.?
The Message Bible says: Jesus, knowing they were out to get him, moved on. A lot of people followed him, and he healed them all.
Notice they followed Him and ?He healed them all.? It is the will of God that all be healed of their sickness and disease. When God views humanity through the eyes of Jesus He doesn?t evaluate each one?s physical need with a yes or no. Jesus says yes to all because that is the will of God. All means all. All means me.
Jesus heals all and that means me. I follow Him and I trust Him to do so.
