Let's get God's Word correctly quoted first:
16 That evening they brought to him many who were oppressed by demons, and he cast out the spirits with a word and healed all who were sick. 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: “He took our illnesses and bore our diseases.”

That was Christ healing those brought to him in order to fulfill prophecy. It says nothing about being healed of illnesses or diseases because of blabbing it and grabbing it.

Exegesis. Try it; you'll like it.

“Blabbing it and grabbing it” is all over the Bible.

“And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; your faith has made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.” (Matt 9:20-22).

Many thronged him but only one said, “if I can only touch him I will be whole,” and Jesus said “Your faith has made you whole.”

The Bible. Try it; you’ll like it.
