He doesn’t just heal the heart, He checks around that heart to find the root of the problem.
HEALING THE WHOLE PERSON
The whole person is spirit, soul, and body. The spirit is the eternal being who will either spend eternity in heaven or hell. This is our decision alone to make. God does not desire to send anyone to hell. We send ourselves there if we reject Jesus Christ as our Savior. John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (NASB). The first step to becoming whole is to surrender to Jesus.
The soul is the second part of our being, and it includes the mind and the emotions. Oftentimes the physical body is sick because the soul needs healing. The ungodliness of today’s society, the selfishness of others, and even our own bad decisions cause great injury to this part of our being. God shares His desire for us in Jeremiah 30:17: “For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds.” Emotional wounds and physical healing go hand in hand with one another. By God’s grace we can learn how to forgive, let go of the past, move forward, and allow the soul to heal.
The third part of our being is the physical body. This is the part that we see every day; it houses our spirit and soul, and God appoints it a time to be born and a time to die (see Eccles. 3:2). But even though it is temporal, Jesus received severe whippings so that it too can be healed and made whole (see Isa. 53:4-5).
God cares about the whole person—spirit, soul, and body. So much so that He records a prayer for its well-being in Third John 1:2: “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.”
DOES GOD WITHHOLD HEALING?
You hear that healing is the bread of God’s children. So, you pray, you wait, and then you start to wonder, “Does God withhold healing?” To answer this question we need to go to God’s healing Word.
From there He arose and went to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And He entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be hidden. For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him, and she came and fell at His feet. The woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter. But Jesus said to her, “Let the children be filled first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs.” And she answered and said to Him, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs under the table eat from the children’s crumbs.” Then He said to her, “For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter.
