Matthew 8:2-3 says “Suddenly, a man with leprosy approached Jesus. He knelt before him, worshiping. “Lord,” the man said, “if you want to, you can make me well again.” Jesus touched him. “I want to,” he said. “Be healed!” And instantly the leprosy disappeared. “

I ask you whose will healed the leper? Was it Jesus or the Leper?

Matthew 8:5-13 is a similar story where a Roman officer comes to Jesus pleading with him to heal his young servant who was “in bed, paralyzed and racked with pain”. The Roman officer impressed Jesus because he said “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come into my home. Just say the word from where you are, and my servant will be healed! I know, because I am under the authority of my superior officers and I have authority over my soldiers. I only need to say , ‘Go,’ and they go, or ‘Come.’ And they come. And if I say to my slaves, ‘Do this or that,’ they do it.” Jesus told the Roman officer, “Go on home. What you have believed has happened.” And the young servant was healed that same hour.

Again I ask, whose ‘will’ actually caused the healing?

In the first healing, Jesus touched the leper which was totally taboo so Jesus already believed the leper was healed. In the second healing, Jesus did not even see the sick man and yet the young man was healed.

In both situations someone was asking for a healing with the belief that Jesus could heal. I believe that the belief was very important. If they had such belief in anything or anyone else it would have occurred.

Belief is a main requirement for manifesting. This is not the superficial, ‘I believe’ but the deep undeniable belief that this is the way it is. So I see that the people asking were the ones who actually created the healing. Remember the many times that Jesus said “your belief has made you well”.
