The
Healer
This song came to my mind this morning. It’s called
“The Healer” and I used to listen to Jimmy Swaggart sing this beautiful piece.
I will share the lyrics with you.
The Healer
On a cross crucified
In great sorrow my saviour died Oh the giver of so
much life was he.
Yet my Lord was despised and rejected of men
Oh this Jesus of Calvary.
Chorus:
He was wounded for our transgression
He was bruised for our iniquities
Surely He bought our sorrows And by His stripes we
are healed
Came the leper that day to Christ
Saying surely I know,
That thou, Lord can make me whole
When his great faith was seen, Jesus said “Yes I
will”
Touched him and made him clean.
He was wounded for our transgressions
He was bruised for our iniquities
Surely He bought our sorrows
And by His stripes we are healed.

When I think of Jesus I think about the healer.
Jesus of Galilee - Jesus of Calvary - Jesus my Saviour and my Lord. Jesus,
Emmanuel, Christ, Lord, and Master. He
is our all in all. All the lovely names of Jesus. Read them out loud and meditate
on each name for a few moments and feel the blessing that overflows you.
When we feel rejected-
so did He
When we feel despised -
so did He
When we are alone -
so was He (in the garden)
When we feel lonely
He felt lonely (when His disciples left Him)
When we are hungry and thirsty
so did He hunger and thirst
When we are in pain
He suffered great pain
When we grieve
so did He grieve
When we cry
so did He cry
When we are lied about
so was He lied about
When we sin —
He never sinned!!
Yet He took all our sin upon himself to purchase our
salvation and give us the gift of eternal life.
Oh what a Saviour!!!!
Please take time today to read Isaiah chapter 53
verses 1 to 12 to see this story and carefully read each line.
Let me share with you Verses 4 to 6 in this 53rd.
Chapter
(4)”But he endured the suffering that should have
been ours, the pain that we should have borne.
All the while we thought that his suffering was
punishment sent by God. (5) But because of our sins he was wounded, beaten
because of the evil we did.
We are healed by the punishment he suffered, made
whole by the blows he received.
(6)All of us were like sheep that were lost, each of
us going his own way. But the Lord made the punishment fall on him, the
punishment all of us deserved”.
(Taken
from the Good News Bible.)
This is a powerful reminder of how He suffered on
our behalf.
Oh the giver of Eternal life was He
Oh this Jesus of Galilee.
Thank you Lord for ALL You did for us, for ALL you
are to us.
Now please listen to the song, The Healer. The Healer - Jimmy Swaggart https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pd2EWXIfwLI
