Jesus Christ's works, as demonstrated through His healings, reveal the profound connection between faith and divine intervention. In challenging the two blind men with the question, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" He emphasizes the necessity of faith for miraculous healing to occur according to God's will. Their strong affirmation, "Yes, Lord," reflects a certainty and trust in His power, despite their physical limitations. In each of the four recorded miracles involving the blind, He touches them, adapting His methods to their condition—whether simply touching their eyes, using spit and clay, or laying hands on them multiple times—ensuring they feel His presence in a way they can never forget. Faith is essential to His healings, as He declares, "According to your faith let it be to you." This principle is evident in various instances where faith opens the door to divine blessing, while its absence prevents mighty works, as seen in Nazareth. The opening of the blind men's eyes signifies not only physical restoration but also a deeper spiritual understanding, mirroring how He can enable comprehension of God's Word. Additionally, His stern command to the healed men to keep quiet about their miracle serves multiple purposes: protecting His ministry from hindrance, guarding against pride in the healed, and emphasizing that true faith is proven through righteous conduct rather than mere words. Despite their faith in receiving healing, their disobedience to His instruction highlights the need for a faith rooted in love and obedience to His commands.

Two of Jesus Christ's seventeen healing miracles involve healing a paralyzed person. The first of these, occurring in Capernaum, Jesus' own city, is a profound demonstration of His power. Energetic crowds pressed in at the door to hear Him proclaim new truths, unaware they were about to witness strong proof of His divine authority. Four men, arriving late with a paralyzed man on his bed, could not get through the door due to the crowd. Undeterred, they carried their helpless friend to the roof and lowered him before Jesus as He spoke, displaying their faith in His ability to heal. Their determination and perseverance paid off, enabling both the spiritual and physical healing of their friend. Christ, pleased with their works which exhibited their faith, responded to their resourcefulness, honoring their belief as the catalyst for this miracle. Their faith revealed wise, persistent, sacrificial, unintimidated, humble, loving, and active traits, as they brought the paralytic to the only One who could heal, undeterred by obstacles and unashamedly displaying their efforts in public. In the order of events, Christ addressed the spiritual problem first by forgiving the man's sins before healing his physical affliction. He offered simple encouragement with the words, "Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you," providing deep relief and joy to the paralytic, troubled by sin that had caused or was causing his suffering. From God's perfect perspective, spiritual needs are always more critical than physical ones, so in this miracle, forgiveness preceded healing.

Jesus Christ's works, marked by miraculous power as foretold by the prophet Isaiah, served as profound evidence of His identity. He declared to John the Baptizer that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. His miracles, inseparable from His life, embodied His role as God manifest in flesh, showcasing His God-given responsibility to bless and relieve mankind in extraordinary ways. The power of the Lord was present to heal, as multitudes sought to touch Him, and power went out from Him, healing them all. God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, enabling Him to go about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him. These mighty works, often personal and spiritual in nature, contrasted with the external, national-scale miracles of earlier times, focusing instead on individual lives and domestic settings. The sick were healed, demons exorcized, and the dead, like Lazarus, resurrected. His miracles were not performed to astonish or satisfy curiosity but formed an integral part of His teaching, proving His identity as the Messiah and His divine mission. They were the Father's way of authenticating His Son's purpose among humanity. The main purpose of Christ's miracles was to place the focus and glory on His Father, declaring and proving God's existence and sovereignty. He never worked a miracle for His own benefit, ease, or comfort, even in moments of intense suffering. He provided for others, feeding hungry followers, yet refused to transform stones into bread for His own hunger. He never paraded His supernatural power, often commanding those He healed to keep silent about their restoration. His miracles were purposeful, displaying humility, mercy, and lovingkindness, while simultaneously declaring the sovereignty and glory of His Father.

The healing of the centurion's servant demonstrates Jesus Christ's profound ability to heal from a distance solely through the power of His word. Distance poses no barrier to His authority; His command alone suffices to effect healing, whether near or far. The centurion, recognizing this authority, believed that diseases must obey Jesus' command just as his soldiers obeyed him, understanding that authority transcends physical presence. True faith, as shown by the centurion, requires no visible sign but rests in the spiritual capability of Christ and the effectiveness of His word to heal even the sick and dying. The centurion's faith in Christ's word is particularly commendable. He trusted that merely speaking a word was sufficient for healing to occur, even in the most desperate cases, surpassing the faith of others who believed Christ's physical presence was necessary. His recognition of the power and authority in Christ's spoken word underscores the essence of real faith, which cannot exist without acceptance of God's Word. The evidence of the servant's healing was clear and undeniable. Those sent to the house found the servant completely recovered from paralysis and great pain, with no need for further proof to confirm the genuine miracle performed by Christ. Jesus provided many such proofs during His ministry, affirming His supernatural ability and divine purpose.

The, listen up, for the gospel of Jesus Christ shines a light on the works He tirelessly performs for mankind's sake. His return looms near, within our lifetimes, as prophecies He spoke are coming to pass. The crisis at the close draws ever closer, and mankind's only hope rests in the good news He brought. Jesus Himself declares in Mark 1:15 that belief in the gospel is essential for salvation, far beyond merely acknowledging His name. Consider the works of our Savior, as He testifies in John 5:17, "My Father has been working until now, and I have been working." He reveals a God who is not idly observing but actively laboring. The Bible records His ceaseless efforts on our behalf: teaching, counseling, praying, healing, setting the perfect example for His disciples, and obeying His Father without flaw to become the sacrifice for our sins. In John 14:10, He affirms, "The Father who dwells in Me does the works," showing Their partnership in His ministry. Even after rising from the grave and ascending to heaven, He continues as Head of the Church and High Priest, working with the members of His Body and interceding for us, bearing great responsibility for our salvation and the church's success, especially as the end approaches. Jesus came as a Messenger from the Father, proclaiming not His own words but the good news of the Kingdom of God, as confirmed in John 8:38-42 and John 12:49-50. Mark 1:14-15 states He preached the gospel of the Kingdom, urging repentance and belief. Luke 8:1 shows He went through every city and village, bringing glad tidings of the Kingdom, and in Luke 4:43, He declares it His purpose, saying, "I must preach the kingdom of God to the other cities also: because for this purpose I have been sent." Even in His final days before ascending, Acts 1:3 notes He spoke of things pertaining to the Kingdom of God to His apostles. He charged His disciples to preach this same message, as seen in Luke 9:1-2, and their efforts continued through others like Philip and Paul, who also proclaimed the Kingdom, as recorded in Acts 8:12, Acts 20:25, and Acts 28:30-31.
