Spiritual Health > Physical Health


Matthew 9:1-2

 

New International Version (NIV)

 

Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralyzed Man


 

9 Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town. Some men brought to him a paralyzed man, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.”


 

Among the first words Jesus said to the paralyzed man were, “Your sins are forgiven.” Then He healed the man. We must be careful not to concentrate on God’s power to heal physical sickness more than on His power to forgive spiritual sickness in the form of sin. Jesus say that even more than physical health, this man needed spiritual health. Spiritual health comes only from Jesus’ healing touch.
