Healing Fields
A man with a revelation is not at the mercy of the man with an argument.
Jesus entered fields of healing—healing every imaginable sickness and disease. In every town and village He ministered divine healing to the people, restoring health to broken bodies, casting out the demons of infirmity, and setting back in order what had become twisted and “confused.” He established the will of His Father. Matthew 9:18-28; 35-36
Jesus saw the harvest of healing that was coming and directed His disciples to pray: The harvest is great, but the workers are few. So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest; ask Him to send more workers into His fields. Matthew 9:37-38
The harvest Jesus referred to was not souls, it was healing—though of course, healing is a sign and souls will surely follow. We are the laborers He was calling for—you and me. The field is the people Jesus made provision for, affirming yet again His Father’s will, healing – His own life the purchase price to redeem that field from the ravages of disease and brokenness:
But the fact is, it was our pains he carried—
our disfigurements, all the things wrong with us.
We thought he brought it on himself,
that God was punishing him for his own failures.
But it was our sins that did that to him,
that ripped and tore and crushed him—our sins!
He took the punishment, and that made us whole.
Through his bruises we get healed.
We’re all like sheep who’ve wandered off and gotten lost.
We’ve all done our own thing, gone our own way.
And God has piled all our sins, everything we’ve done wrong,
on him, on him. Isaiah 53:5, The Message Bible
He took the punishment, the stripes; truthfully, you are already whole—really. The Cross is your testimony—all the proof you need. Revelation waits as belief outlasts the odds; the knee will bow to something, it might as well be Truth.
Amen.
