The advent of sin into the human race brought a lot of calamities into the world, chief among which is sickness. The good news, however, is that the Almighty God is also ready to help the human race to get over this. Deuteronomy 7:15 says: “And the Lord will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee”

In Numbers 21:7-9, the children of Israel sinned against the Lord and He sent fiery serpents to kill them. After much pleading by Moses their leader, God decided to help them. Numbers 21:8-9 says:
“And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live”

Unfortunately, some people refused to look and live that day. The Bible say further "Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents” 1 Corinthians 10:9. Jesus said that, just as Moses lifted the serpent in the wilderness and all who looked up at it were healed, so also would He save all those who would look up to Him (John 3:14). Jesus has already made provision for our healing through His stripes (1 Peter 2:24) if we look up to Him.

Beloved, what infirmities are you suffering from? Have you suffered by the hands of physicians to no avail, like the woman with the issue of blood (Matthew 9:20-22)? Put your faith in Jesus Christ today. He is the Great Physician and will heal you as He did the impotent man at the pool of Bethesda (John 5:1-9).

To enjoy divine healing however, you must belong to the Great Physician. The food meant for children cannot be given to dogs or slaves according to (Mark 7:26-30). Surrender your life in totality to the Lord Jesus Christ today and He will prove to you that He is indeed the Great Physician.
