When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word and healed all who were sick. Matthew 8:16

Jesus, a type of the church to come was a veritable hospital for the infirm and demon-possessed. Today however we have hospitals, insane asylums, and psychologists to deal with the multitudes while the church sits empty during the week!
Remember Jesus is the model for the church to come, the body of Christ is the representative of Christ today in the earth not a mausoleum for the dead! I remember after being baptized in the Holy Spirit sitting in church one morning bored to tears wondering what I was supposed to be doing. Suddenly the Holy Spirit led me to a family of five living in a bus in the woods by a river and my ministry was about to take off but that is another story.
From that day forward I was in the streets, the hospitals, jails, and prisons preaching the gospel, laying hands on the sick, and casting out demons. The Holy Spirit led me to hundreds who were addicted, demon-possessed, and sick with various diseases and maladies. It seemed as though there was no end to man's woes! Remember our great commission, "GO!"
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet saying, "He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses." Matthew 8:17
