You don’t need to fight against what Jesus has already defeated for you—but you do have to learn from God’s Word everything that you’ve been given. How will you ever receive and walk in what you don’t even know you have?
Your healing is already paid for! Jesus bore your sicknesses and carried your pains, and by His stripes you ARE healed (Isaiah 53:5; 1Peter 2:24). The work has ALREADY been done for you. The price has ALREADY been paid. And when the revelation and understanding of this truth becomes stronger and more real to us than the symptoms trying to defy it, we will walk in not just healing, but divine health!
God’s plan for people was a garden experience where He would walk with us and provide for us. We would live without shame and love would rule. In Christ, we have been returned to that relationship! He bore upon Himself our shame and who we had become because of sin, and gave us HIS life in exchange. Now, in Christ, we have been brought back into the Father and are one spirit with Him!
“Lord Jesus, THANK YOU that You went to the cross and took away all of my sin. You took every form of sickness and disease upon Yourself, and You died for me. Now I see every sin, failure, fear, and problem, every weakness, sickness, tumor, and autoimmune disease laid upon You 2,000 years ago. Lord Jesus, I know I am crucified with You, and now I live, yet not I, but You are alive in me! Thank You that I have exchanged my old life and my old body for YOUR life and YOUR health! I have come out of the grave and am now saved, healed and delivered! I am a child of the living God, and I thank You that I have no fear of tomorrow, I have no fear of any diagnosis, and I have no fear of failure or sin, because I am in You and You are in me!”
The great tragedy of this world is not the fall of mankind, but the realization that multiplied millions don’t know what Jesus has done for them. They don’t understand that they have been released and set totally free from slavery to the effects of sin and darkness—and all God is asking them to do is believe it and receive it!
To the religious leader of Jesus’ day healing was easier, even acceptable. To the religious in our day, forgiveness of sin is easier, acceptable. But we can read in God’s Word that Jesus bore away both our diseases AND our sin! The moment you were born again you entered the kingdom of God, where in His eyes, you are completely forgiven and healed. When you begin to say what God says, regardless of how you may be feeling, and allow the Holy Spirit to renew your mind to the truth of it, it will become your reality!
There will be a moment in time when you will leave your physical body for a new home in heaven, but in Christ, your eternal life has already begun! You have been raised up with Him and are seated, not next to Him, but IN Him, in heavenly places! You are one spirit with Him and the Kingdom of God lives in you!
Is the Kingdom of God in disorder? Is it confused? Is God nervous? No! The first thing that Jesus said to His disciples after His resurrection was “Peace.” Regardless of the current turmoil, lawlessness and uncertainty we are witnessing in our nation and in the world, the kingdom of God is in order. The kingdom of God is at rest. God is not nervous. He has a wonderful plan that is being worked both in us and through us in the earth!
“Lord Jesus, I thank You and take by faith the healing and deliverance You have given to me. Thank You that ALL things are now possible to me, because I believe Your ‘power of the possible’ is effectually working in my life. Thank You that I’m healed, I’m delivered and I am FREE!”
There is only one way to overcome the pain and torment of your soul, the pain of your sickness and the fear and the torment that is in your mind, and that is to come to the Lord Jesus Christ and give it all to Him. And as you leave it all with Him—trusting Him as your caretaker—His peace will fill your mind and your spirit, soul and body, and raise you to a new level of life and health!
