Bible Reading:

“Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.” (Isaiah 53:4a KJV)

Introduction:

Our opening scriptures have four important words; Borne, briefs, carried & sorrows- which we shall explain in order to help build up your faith for healing. 

Faith is the substance of what we believe.  And if you are  double minded, you’ll receive nothing from God.  For anything is possible if you believe. 

Firstly, the English word griefs, which is from the Hebrew cholly, is derived  from Hebrew  ‘chalah’ which means to be weak, sick, or afflicted, and is most often translated sickness.

Next, is  sorrows Hebrew makob which is generally rendered pain. 

Which explains why in Matthew 8:17, it is translated as:

“He himself took our infirmities, and bore our sicknesses”

Finally are these two very significant verbs, borne (Hebrew nasa) and carried (Hebrew cabal).

Borne is also used in Isaiah 53:12 – ” He bore the sins of many”

From the usage of the verb in both verses of Isaiah 53:4 & 12, the word borne carries the sense that in the same manner in which Jesus Christ bore our sins- that is by suffering as our substitute, He also bore our sicknesses by suffering for them as well.

That means that just as the substitutionary work of Christ on the Cross freed me from my sins which he bore, I am also freed from my sicknesses which he also bore. 

Therefore if there are no sins in my account, there should not be any sicknesses and diseases in my account as well. 

How can I have what Jesus Christ has carried away? I am freed from the degenerative effects of sins!!! Hallelujah 

People of God, rest in the knowledge that just as there is forgiveness , there are healings for anyone who believes this Truth! Hallelujah.
