I'm coming to think that all healing is about reconciliation. To be physically healed is to have one's body reconciled to the healthy way that God made us to be. To be spiritually healed, is to be reconciled to God by Jesus, through confession and His forgiveness. Relational healing is when repentance and forgiveness reconciles - brings back to unity - two people who were at odds with each other. The best reconciliation is resurrection, to be reconciled from death to the eternal life for which God made us. That's a cool thought to me.
The "largeness" of this concept of reconciliation begins to gain more footing when we read that "God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ" (2 Cor 5:19) and "in Him all things hold together" (Col 1:17). In a spiritual sense, Christ is like "gravity" pulling all things closer to God the father - which means all people who are "away from the father" are being drawn to the father by Christ. And all things that are broken apart in life; disease, emotional brokenness, relational separation, can find their restoration to wholeness - to oneness - through Jesus.
So if you are tracking with me, if for instance, a person experiences God's healing from cancer, this person's body has been "reconciled" and the unity and oneness of all its parts have been brought back to their harmonious unity. Do you see what I mean? Mind you, I'm not trying to write this to start some new doctrine, this thought is more devotional than it is doctrinal. But, I like it, it's helpful to me. Jesus reconciles when he heals; heals bodies, heals relationships, heals broken hearts. "God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ." Simply, it makes me want to pray, "Thank you for this Father. It makes my heart jump."
