Isaiah 53:4, YLT
4Surely our sicknesses he hath borne, and our pains — he hath carried them,
While waiting for the manifestation of their healing, some people find it hard to believe that Jesus really took their sicknesses and pains, just as He took their sin and shame.
If you are one of them, don’t feel condemned. Your Father in heaven understands. That is why He put the word “surely” there when He said, “Surely, My Son has borne your sicknesses and carried your pains.”
Once, my daughter Jessica was crying all night because she was not feeling well. She had been sick for a few days. I was in my study and I took out my Bible. The Lord led me to Isaiah 53:4 where it says, “Surely He has borne…” I know the Hebrew here. It means, “Surely He has borne our sicknesses and carried our pains.” So I said, “Surely, He has borne Jessica’s sickness…”
But it was like the verse was just not real to me. Her cries seemed more real. Then, all of a sudden, the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to a word in the verse that really revolutionised the way I saw the whole passage.
Notice the first word in the verse? It says, “Surely…” Surely, He has borne our sicknesses and carried our pains. But look at the next verse: “He was wounded for our transgressions...” Every Christian knows and believes that Jesus was wounded for our sins, yet the word “surely” is not put here but in the earlier verse. I think that God knew that we would find it hard to believe that Jesus also bore our sicknesses and carried our pains, so He put the word “surely” there to help us believe!
When I saw that, I put my Bible on the floor, stood on it and said, “Father, you know I don’t mean any irreverence, but I am standing on Your Word. Surely, Jesus bore her sickness and carried her pain! I don’t care if I can still hear her crying. Surely, Your Son, Your beloved Son, bore her sickness and carried her pain! Hallelujah!” That night, the breakthrough came. That night, little Jessica was healed.
Surely, He has borne your sicknesses and carried your pains. And as you believe this truth, surely, your healing and breakthrough will likewise come!

Receive The Word God Has Sent To Heal You
I always come to God for healing..Now , I feel more active, hyper and alive than ever!
No more migraines and me being sickly is history!
Thank you Jesus!
Sharing a wonderful message for the day from Pastor Joseph Prince of New Creation Church, Singapore!
Enjoy and proclaim your healing! It's all yours!
Receive The Word God Has Sent To Heal You
Psalm 107:20
20He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
Your Bible will do you no good if you leave it on your bedside table, gathering dust. It will do you no good to hold it like a teddy bear when you are facing your “giants”. But God’s Word will do you a lot of good when you receive it as truth and speak it as truth! Then, you will surely see your healing and deliverance from every evil condition sent to destroy you!
The Bible says that “He sent His Word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions”. Now, when God wants to heal you, what does He do? He sends His Word. Before God delivers you from your destruction, He sends His Word.
Are you still waiting to experience the blessing of healing that Jesus died on the cross to give you? Don’t feel condemned. Your Father in heaven loves you and wants you well. But how does your healing come? By you receiving His Word on healing that He has already sent you. His promises of healing are all there in your Bible. But have you received them?
During one of my church services, a lady took out her handphone and started sending text messages to her friend who was at home dying of cancer, every scripture and almost every key point that I was preaching that day. I was telling the congregation to just confess the healing scriptures over their sicknesses, no matter how bad their conditions were. I even told them to say, “By Jesus’ stripes, I am healed” (Isaiah 53:5), 1,000 times a day. The lady got so excited that she told her friend to confess it 10,000 times a day!
Her friend, on seeing the text messages, simply received the Word of God and confessed it. That very same week, when she went back to the doctor, the doctor could not find a single trace of cancer in her body!
Never underestimate the power of God’s Word. The lady was healed because she received God’s Word. She could have left her handphone on her bedside table, but she did not. She picked it up, read the Word, confessed it and received her miracle. God sent His Word and healed her, and saved her from her destruction!
