Who is healing for?

 

James 5:14-15

Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:  And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

Mathew 4:24

24And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

Healing is for any sick among you, every one, all, all sick people, all that were oppressed of the devil, ye, and we.

 

Also notice in 1 Peter 2:24 and Isaiah 53:5 that Jesus went to the cross for both redemption of sin and to heal us.  Notice that He already did his part, it’s up to us to do our part.
