God sent his son and Jesus the only begotten son of God too our griefs, sorrows, sickness and sin on himself in our place.
1 Peter 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
Isaiah 53:4 -5 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Luke 9:1-2 :Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
Matthew 10:7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
If it is Jesus will that we rest in the health he provided 2000 years ago we have every right to ask God for his healing virtue to be manifest in our bodies.
Luke 8:43-44. 46-48 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any, Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stopped.
And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me. And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately. And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
Matthew 11:28-29 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
If you haven’t seen the results you’ve been looking for, don’t give up or quit. In Ephesians 6 Paul told us when we’ve done all to stand to stand therefore: making sure that our loins girt about with truth, the breastplate of righteousness, our feet ready to go and tell the gospel of peace, taking the shield of faith and the shield of faith. Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching. The woman with the issue of blood came to Jesus looking for results. We can follow her example. Scripture tells us she pressed in to get near to the savior. When obstacles try to distract or sidetrack us we can keep our minds stayed on God and what he said!
James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous human availeth much.
