An interesting application comes out of this passage in Isaiah 53 which Peter quotes here...Isaiah says

He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement (disturbance) of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Look closely at what is being promised here....healing from transgression, iniquity, and that which disturbs our Shalom...it really does not address physical illness but spiritual...

Yes, it addresses the physical. Jesus suffered physical stripes, and we are healed of physical diseases. There are no exceptions to what Jesus has done for us. I find it incredibly naive to claim that the healing we have been promised and already given is only in the spiritual sense---that is a faith problem.

He is our healer. God Himself says in Psalm 103:2-3
Bless and affectionately praise the Lord, O my soul,
And do not forget any of His benefits;
3 Who forgives all your sins,
Who heals all your diseases;
