"When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick" (Matt. 8:16).

What if God didn't want to heal everyone who came to Jesus? What if a few people God didn't want to heal slipped into that crowd and received their healing from Jesus before God knew about it?

No, that couldn't happen. You see, for Jesus to heal anyone, it had to be God's will, because Jesus only did what He saw His Father do (John 5:19).

When Jesus walked into a multitude of people, He cast out all the devils and healed all the sick. He never refused one person; He never turned anyone down. He never said, "I'll heal you later; you need to learn a few things before you get healed." Instead, He always said things like, "I will - be thou clean," or "I will - come and be healed."

Jesus always healed all who were in faith. Here's why:

"That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses" (Matt. 8:17).

The Bible says Jesus healed in order to fulfill the Scriptures. Every time He healed the multitudes, He proved once more that God's will is healing for all.

Confession:
Jesus took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses.
I believe that He is able and willing to heal me;
therefore, right now I receive my healing by faith.
