Hebrews 13:8:
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Notes on Hebrews 13:8:
Just as Malachi 3:6 and James 1:17 declare that God does not change, this verse proves that Jesus does not change either, as does Hebrews 1:12. His location has changed, but He Himself has not changed. His will concerning healing has not changed since His days on earth when He “healed all that were oppressed of the devil” (Acts 10:38). Look at the Scriptures in this book concerning His ministry on the earth and see His will – healing for all. Because He has not changed, His will must still be healing for all. He still heals when His name is used. He is your merciful and compassionate High Priest. He was moved with compassion and He healed the sick then, so He is still moved with compassion and He still wants to see the sick healed today! Now it’s even better because He already made the provision for your healing, so there is no question that you can receive it right now.
