Doctor Jesus wants to heal you


Doctor Jesus wants to heal you

Have you ever been to a doctor? Of course you have. But have you ever been treated by Doctor Jesus?
Maybe we don't use that title for him, but he told us that he is a doctor:
"It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentence." (Luke 5:31-32)
And since we're all sinners, that means he'll make a house call--or a work call or hospital call or wherever you need him--just to see you.
Here's what the Bible tells us about Doctor Jesus:
  • He's on duty 24/7, 365 days a year.
  • You never need to make an appointment.
  • You never have to wait.
  • He'll take all the time you need.
  • No problem is too hard for him.
  • He always makes the right diagnosis, even when you don't know what the problem is yourself.
  • He can heal you physically.
  • He can heal you emotionally.
  • He can heal you spiritually.
  • He charges no fees.
  • He's never lost a patient.
What's more, he's eager for you to come to him for treatment. In fact,he'll even come to you. Sometimes his treatment may be difficult, like giving up your bad habits, but he's the only physician who took the painful treatment you had coming, so your life could be saved.
When you begin to see Jesus in this role, you'll have a much better understanding of how he can help you. Your health--your very life--is in his hands, but these are skilled hands, gentle hands, forgiving hands. You're absolutely safe in his hands. The outcome is always life. And not just renewed life or extended life, but eternal life.
So take your problem to Doctor Jesus tonight. Ask him to heal you and give you the medicine of his presence to strengthen you in your daily struggles. This Great Physician knows exactly what you need. You can trust him with your life.
