Arose because he was healed, or healed because he arose?

John 5:
8 Jesus said to him,
Rise, take up your bed and walk.”

9 And immediately the man was made well,
took up his bed,
and walked.

Was the man made well by hearing, or doing?
Was he healed because he obeyed and arose,
enabling him to take up his bed? or,
did he arise because he "realized he was healed?
