Right now you and I can embrace the reality that no giant of sickness and disease, NO giant that comes against THE LIVING GOD, can exist in the presence of the One who lives in us, who believes in us, and who goes about doing good and healing all who are oppressed of the devil!
Every born-again believer is walking in this earth with the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwelling in them, quickening and giving life to their mortal body (Romans 8:11). We should be addressing sickness and disease with authority by commanding our bodies to line up with the Word of God and to be made whole!
You as a child of God have been given dominion over viruses, bacteria, fungi, germs, and micro-organisms! You can speak to that life, cursing it at its root and commanding it to die, because it is not of God. Sickness is from the devil, it’s an oppression that has come to destroy your life!
Your identity is your concept of who you are. You’ve been given an identity by God and a name that is above every other name. Declare your God-given identity: “I am healed by the stripes of Jesus!” “I am born into the kingdom of God!” “I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus!”
Why would Christ die on a cross and take my sin if He didn’t have a plan for my success? Everyone should be planning for success, because the One who lives in you by His Spirit defeated your enemy!
The truth is that those things that appear as giants to you are looked upon as NOTHING to God. And because God lives in you, there is defeat in the heart of your enemies who attempt stand in the way of the plans and purposes God desires for your life!
If you’re feeling like a panicked disciple out in the middle of the sea in a foundering ship, remember: there is One greater than the stormy seas and He lives inside you! He holds the earth with all of its seas in the palm of His hand! Speak to those storms just as Jesus did, and put your trust in Him to bring you to safe harbor!
As parents we shape the future of our children through our words. Why not shape our own future with the very words we speak? Today choose to speak words of life and healing over yourself!
God can only go where your feet take Him. He can only touch the people you touch. He sees through your eyes and speaks through your mouth. His words are all-powerful, but for that power to be released they must be spoken through lips of faith!
John 1:14 tells us that Jesus, the Word of God, became flesh. What does that mean for you and me? That means His Word is actually He Himself being released into the atmosphere around us. When we speak His words, He is filling our midst with His presence!
Jesus prayed: “Our Father Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come; on earth as it is in heaven.” No sickness in heaven! No poverty in heaven! No weakness in heaven! No tears in heaven! If it doesn’t look like heaven, we are commissioned and empowered to change it!
