Meditate On
And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you
well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.”
Mark 5:34
Go Into
And Remain In Peace
I had always thought that when Jesus told the woman who
had been healed of a 12-year bleeding condition to “Go in peace,” He was just giving
her a farewell greeting. One day, the Lord told me to check it up in the Greek.
That’s when I found out that it actually reads, “Go into peace.”
I had also wondered why Jesus told her to “be healed of
your affliction” when she was already healed the moment she touched Him. Again,
when I looked up that phrase in the Greek, I realized that Jesus was actually
telling her to be made whole, not just healed. In other words, Jesus ushered
her into peace so that she could be made whole in every way—if she had been
traumatized by previous medical procedures, she would have peace of mind and
sound sleep.
My friend, Jesus not only wants to heal you, but He also
wants to make you whole. Perhaps many things are troubling you today. Beloved,
go into peace and remain in peace. How? By casting all your cares to the Lord.
Keep your mind on Jesus’ faithfulness and goodness, and His perfect love for
you. The Prince of Peace Himself will keep you in perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3),
bringing about healing and wholeness in your body and circumstances.
