Fear of illness can grip the mind long before any diagnosis. Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted and give abundant life.
What the Bible says
“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;”Psalm 103:2–3 · KJV
“Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.”James 5:14–15 · KJV
“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.”2 Corinthians 4:16 · KJV
