The roots of the Bible
The aim of Healing
Yaakov, Béla Orbán
God heals in order to reveal His Laws to us, so that we can live in accordance with them and transmit them to the other people!
The history of the People of Israel is the typical example of that:
Through generations, the People achieved its work as slave under very bad conditions of life, among dangers, miseries and diseases of all kind.
At the time of the kneading of mud to produce bricks, they were prey to the swarming bacterium and virus of the muddy pool. It could have easily cost them the loss of some limb or part of their body.
However, the People recovered arriving at the Mount Sinai!
How do we know that?
The report in the Writing is clear:
"... and they stood at the nether part of the mount..." (Ex 19:17), thus that means that they had all their legs and did not have pain in them... "
"All that the LORD hath spoken we will do"... (19:8) they said. Such words can only be pronounced by people who have two healthy hands, therefore ready to work.
"…there were thunders and lightnings… so that all the people that was in the camp trembled…" (19:16)... thus each of them should have had healthy eyes to see.
"All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient." (24:7) It seems that their ears were also fully operational...
"... And all the people answered together, and said,… " (19:8) None of them was dumb then, their languages and their vocal cords functioned and answered together.
Perhaps some could think that this list is a kind of joke. Some will probably think that this is again a Jewish meditation that well reflects the typical Jewish mentality of explaining everything with absurd argument and interpretations. The foregoing reasoning is really "Jewish", but the message that it carries is above all people and time.
When somebody repents, converts and starts on the path of being born again, he particularly needs to experience the presence of the Eternal.
We all came out from such sinful places where the fatal diseases, the dangers and even death were threatening our life.
These evils prevented us from leaving our own ground of Egypt, to engage us on the way full of dangers and adventures of the wander in the desert, on this way which brings us back to Home.
The first steps towards this path were however under the protection and controlled by the Spirit of God Himself.
The Almighty God who is with us, guides us, protects us, surrounds us and prepares us to the time when in our turn, we will stop and stand at the foot of the Mountain.
There are already two Mountains for us.
The first is the mountain of the gift of the Laws where we must appear before God.
Then the other mountain is the Golgotha, where we put everything and all our life in the hands of the Lord of all things, in the hands of Yeshua HaMashiach of Nazareth.
Only the one who did that can really understand God’s love.
During this trip, he will really experiment that his legs, with which he trampled the mud were really given to him for a path. This path brings to be born again and from there to the ultimate target but from now under the rule of the anointed King Yeshua HaMashiach.
This way does not only require a personal decision, but also healed and healthy legs.
Leaving the old roads of perdition, our legs full of scratches, contusion or even sometimes broken, start to heal little by little and to prepare us to follow the path of discipleship...
Then comes the school of perseverance.
Our healed legs are already able to hold us upright when we arrive at the moment and the place of decision before God.
They do not tremble any more and the physical healing is as intense as the psychical one.
We even realize that our hands can be useful in many things.
To achieve what God wishes that we achieve.
We do not have to grip clutches because of our sick legs and neither our hands should help our legs anymore...
On this path of wandering, our wall building, claying and muddy hands do not serve any alien rule any alien lord anymore, but are resting a time to be prepared to accomplish a much bigger work...
The spiritual and psychical darkness of Egypt also gradually dissipate and become light.
We start being able to see our situation, our objective. We start seeing the Almighty God, who leads us to the Sinai, to obedience...
Healings are coming one after the other.
After the legs and the hands comes the sight. After all that, we approach the will of the devotion and obedience.
We would like to already hear the Law, the Order and the Word of God so that we can leave towards the promised objective...
So that we could say yes to God in full responsibility.
Only the person whose limbs, eyes and ears are healed and purified is able to responsibly devote his life to God, so that he can use them in the work that God wants to give to him.
A responsible decision requires a good hearing and a good vision.
The crown of all this is the act of speech, when somebody reinforces with his language, the act of faith and devotion with God and His Alliance that is offered to each man.
We must imperatively understand that when we make the experiment of physical, psychical or spiritual healings, their aim is always to eradicate and take away any obstruction that prevent us from making the Alliance. Healings and releases happen so that nothing can prevent us from plainly fulfilling the Orders of God.
Healing is not a gift, a price, an end, a goal or anything of this kind, since the aim of healing is that we can meet God to know His Will.
The aim of healing is thus to be able to meet God and to offer our life with joy to Him, since He has already so often proved His reliability as Almighty since we arrived in front of Him...
The wandering of the desert is for us a good and necessary thing.
This wander is purification and healing which able us to put our life on the Altar.
Before the departure, God even declared to His Chosen People:
I will be the one who will heal you...
It was this promise that accompanied the People from Egypt to the Sinai.
As we can read it, God achieved His promise.
This promise is also valid for us today:
Leave Egypt, I will be with You, you will make the experiment of the healing of your arms, your legs, your ears, your eyes and your mouth which is not other like the healing of your entire being.
It is possible that this promise is valid also for your body, since such healings are still possible today.
But God did not heal for the simple reason of your release, but rather to make you ready to follow His Will, to fulfill your call and so that other people can see the Promises of God by the testimony of your life...
Our reward is that we can stand in front of Him.
His blessing is that He accepts us like His, like His People and that He offers the Law.
Then the following stage, the other mountain, Golgotha comes, where by the Laws, It allots The Grace is that He brings us to the other mountain, the Golgotha so that we receive His Grace to continue our way henceforth under the command of Yeshua HaMashiach.
