Jesus traveled all through Galilee teaching in the Jewish synagogues, everywhere preaching the Good News about the Kingdom of Heaven. And He healed every kind of sickness and disease. Matthew 4:23 One of the Names that we hear a lot is God is great healer or the great physician, these are one and the same. God does not take out a part of Him and become both of those names, He is those names.
I often catch myself lately praying to God in one part such as the names above and only leaving it there. And immediately Jesus, perceiving in Himself that power from Him had gone out, turned around in the crowd and said, “Who touched My garments? Mark 5:30. The verse does not say that a part of His power left, but I believe as a whole his power left. Even when we seek the great physician, we need to seek God as a whole.
Soon some men brought Him a paralyzed boy on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the sick boy, 'Cheer up, son! For I have forgiven your sins! Matthew 9:2
Jesus was going through all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness. Matthew 9:35
The New Testament is riddled with healing, Jesus performed miraculous healing for example saying to them get up and walk and they walked because their sins were forgiven. But if by this he was only the great physician he could not do this. If that was the case, physicians all over the world could do the same thing. God needed to be whole to perform these miracles. We have the same power in us as well because if we accept God into our lives we have the power but only if we accept God in whole I believe will we have the power.
I've given examples today of how God is the great physician and that is one facet of God. But if not as a whole he would not be the great physician, he would be a mere physician. He is God because he is whole.
As I did today, I will continue to look at the Facets (names) of Jesus and how they are whole with God.
But to end today as much as I know about God there are a billion things I do not know and understand about Him. So do not say that I am an authority on these things of God or anything pertaining to God. I am a humble servant of God, Glorifying the name Of Jesus.
