How do we know that Jesus has authority to heal?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus' authority to heal is affirmed by His ability to perform miracles, which reveal His divine nature as the Son of God.

The authority of Jesus to heal is substantiated through the countless miracles recorded in the Gospels. For instance, in Matthew 9:6, Jesus asserts His power to forgive sins and demonstrates this authority by healing a paralytic, indicating that His ability to heal physical ailments is a testament to His divine nature. Furthermore, the faith of those who approached Him for healing, like the centurion in Matthew 8:10, signifies the recognition of His power. This interplay between faith and authority in Jesus’ healing ministry reassures believers that He both has the power and the willingness to heal.
