The Woman With The Issue Of Blood - Her Promise

The Woman with the Issue of Blood - Her Promise

God promises to heal us. That statement may seem to fly in the face of the many who have suffered from illness and disability for years on end, but we need to remember that our concept of healing is not necessarily the same as God’s. For some, healing may not take place here on earth. True healing — the healing that will cure even those who don’t suffer from any particular physical ailment here on earth — will take place not here but in heaven. There, God promises the ultimate healing from our sickness, our disabilities, our inclination to sin.

Promises in Scripture

I am the LORD, who heals you.

— Exodus 15:26

O LORD my God, I called to you for help
and you healed me.

— Psalm 30:2

Praise the LORD, O my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

Praise the LORD, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits —

who forgives all your sins
and heals all your diseases,

who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion.

— Psalm 103:1 – 4

They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.

— Revelation 21:3 – 4
