The healing touch
Several times in the Bible, virtue power is transferred from a source to a recipient through a touch. We also see through the Bible that there are different kinds of touches.
There is the touch of healing and the touch of sickness. There is the touch of life, and there is the touch of sin and death. For example, When the devil was permitted by God to touch Job with the touch of sickness, Job became grievously sick to the point of death. When God’s breath life touched the lifeless body of the man whom He formed out of dust of the earth, he became a living soul
Thank God that the touch of healing was given to override the touch of sickness.
The devil came to touch humanity with all kinds of sicknesses, but Jesus came with His healing touch to rescue us from them all.
It is amazing that some children of God do not know their Father the way they ought to know Him. They trust Him for all manner of things, including the most costly of them all, which is the salvation of their souls, yet they find it difficult to trust Him for the healing of their bodies.
The woman with the issue of blood is an example of someone who suffered a great deal from incurable disease. She remained in this condition until her touch of faith drew the healing touch of the Master into her life. With the prevalence of many incurable diseases, children of God need to begin to trust God for His healing touch. This is necessary because from time immemorial, man’s best efforts to cure diseases and sicknesses have always been limited in impact, and millions are still suufering incurably today.

People were healed during Jesus' time as a way to authenticate Jesus and his message. I don't believe that Christians are any more likely to be healed today than nonchristians. My late first died from kidney disease when she was 30 despite the prayers of more people than I can count.
Sorry for the loss. God has a reason for everything because God didn't heal some precious to you that doesn't mean God doesn't heal or answer prayers. Jesus still heals, I am not assuming. It is experiential.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Jesus healed yesterday, Jesus still healed today and will still heal tomorrow because He never changes.
