Happy Sunday everyone,
Our health is very important,
even for those who claim to live in the spirit because once this body is damaged
beyond repair, we are forced to return to God which is why we need to take good
care of it. Sickness or ill health is not what one wants to have, and this is most
times caused by the breakdown of the immune system when exposed to certain
bacteria, disease, viruses, or lack of proper vitamins and minerals in the body.
The life of Jesus is perfect and
without sin therefore, since it is without sin, then it is with our sickness,
disease, any infirmity. Now, the question one would ask is why do we fall sick
even after being translated into the kingdom of Jesus? Yes, many of you would
say, it is because the transformation is a gradual process. True, true, but in
this case it more than that, and I’d explain why.
Ephesians 6:12 says, “For we do not wrestle against flesh and
blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly
places.” Now, as we renew our minds to get physically manifest Christ, we
are under attack from the evil one, and in many cases, the evil one—the devil
attacks our health. This shouldn’t be new to you right, but let us understand
that the devil cannot create, and Jesus took all the powers from him, so how does
he get to touch us? The answer is simple, through our minds.
The devil is the Father of lies,
Jesus said every word that comes out of the mouth of the devil is lies and
deceit. In order words, every attack ganged up against us is a lie, wow! But if
it is a lie, how does it still get to us?
I wrote on this before, that
since the devil isn’t a creator, he uses deceit on those who have the powers to
create—humans. Do you think any of those sicknesses you had were real,
especially in this pandemic? None of them including the present pandemic were
real at the beginning, but it later became real because we helped the devil,
how?
The devil attacks our mind through
deceit by placing signs and symptoms around to make it appear as sickness or disease as the case may be, still, it hasn’t gotten into us, but the moment we
say, “I think I am down with a fever [for example], immediately, the fever
becomes real, why? Death and life are in the power of the tongue (ref.:
Proverbs 18:21), and this goes for every person in both worlds. This is how
even when born of Jesus, you still fall ill.
So, how do we tackle this evil
genius, because this is an attack from him? Before going into that there is
also another reason he gets to us, which would be found in tomorrow’s blog
post, so log on tomorrow, same time.
May the LORD bless
you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you
and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
Why not accept Jesus
today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus,
I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God
raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank
You for saving me!” Congratulations,
you’re born again, you are now brand new!
Log on next time.
