God’s Promises for Healing
God promises to be the One who heals, to bind up the brokenhearted, and one day to end all sickness forever.
Scripture reveals God as our healer, inviting us to pray boldly for restoration of body and soul. He hears every cry and is near the hurting.
Not every healing comes in this life, but God promises an ultimate healing when He makes all things new: no more sickness, no more pain, no more death.

How this points to Jesus
By the wounds of Jesus we are healed, first in the soul, and one day fully in body. Every promise of healing is yes in Him, who healed the sick and rose bodily from the grave. In Christ, the final word over our bodies is not decay but resurrection.
