NONE OF THESE DISEASES


Disease is gotten from two words “dis-ease”, the first part “dis” means against, while ease means comfort and freedom from any kind of restraints or constrains. Disease simply means anything be it natural or spiritual that takes away your easiness or comfort and hereby replace it with hardship, tension, distress, agitation, pain, trouble, discomfort, difficulty, infirmity or other constraints that negatively affects the wellness of our body, soul and spirit. They are infections, maladies, illness and ailments that cause a lot of discomfort in our triune state. It impairs normal functioning and is typically manifested by distinguishing signs and symptoms foreign and painstakingly hazardous to our system.

“And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put NONE OF THESE DISEASES upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that heal thee” Exodus 15:26

As spiritual Israelites we can lay hold of the claim that God has set up a covenant of good health and sound mind for us because He has promised that none of these diseases that came upon the Egyptians shall afflict us because He is the LORD that heals us.

“And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?” Luke13:16 

Jesus Christ Himself certified that healing is the children’s bread and in the case of the woman bent over with infirmity for eighteen years declared that as a daughter of Abraham, she has a right to the healing power of God that sets free from all manner of infirmity.

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hang on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith” Gal. 3:14

Using scripture to interpret scripture all believers has been certified as redeemed from the curse of the law and diseases is one of the curses that comes upon one who do not diligently hearken to walk in line with and do the commandments of God. One of the blessings of Abraham available unto the believers in this dispensation is to be made whole in our body, soul and spirit.

“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God” 2 Cor. 7:1 

Our whole body, soul and spirit must be preserved blameless, sanctified and free from pollutants or contaminants [1 Thess. 5:23] else what defiles and injurious and eventually cause infirmity will dwell there. We must be sanctified continually with the truth which is the Word of God [John 17:17] if we do not want to have diseased body, polluted soul or contaminated spirit. We are well aware of many of the diseases that dwells in the body but have little knowledge of the diseases that plagues the soul and the spirit.

Jesus speaking of His Curriculum Vitae in Luke 4:18 said He had been anointed to heal the brokenhearted, this is the disease upon a man’s soul that has to be mended or healed.  Such diseases includes anger, sadness, pride, unforgiveness, jealousy, glutton, greed, anguish, and emotional disorder like depression. It may lead to psychological disorders and mental illness. A sick mind lose the right aptitude to discern right from wrong and may have emotional instability, mood swings or even double personality.

A cheerful heart is a good medicine, but a downcast spirit dries up the bones." A Hebrew Proverb

Down casting make some believers to seek respite in things that will get them into addiction and further keep them in bondage to things that depresses or causes fear and lead into addiction to chemicals, abuse of what is normal to human existence like sex or alcohol and become depravity that is controlled by narcotics or other form of demonic dependencies. This model believes that all individuals all started well but when exposed to the ills of the world some “turn to chemicals to fill the perceived void within or to ease their pain”. Whatever the void you are trying to fill yourself with only the WORD of God by the Spirit of God can fill it not alcohol, sexual promiscuity, pornography or other addictions

“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him” Act 10:38 

Jesus Christ was manifested that He may destroy the works of darkness [1 John 3:8]. Great grace and power of the Holy Spirit was bestowed upon Him so that all who were oppressed of the devil [diseases of the body, soul and spirit] can all be healed. Jesus has authority to let the captives go free.

“When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses” Mat 8:17 

Those who were possessed with devil often times are sick in their spirit man. The above scripture stated clearly that the spirits that caused the diseases were cast out of those they were oppressing, harassing and intimidating the sick! Jesus took our infirmities [“harpazo” meaning He snatched away] and bare our sicknesses. Jesus is still healing bodily, soul and spiritual diseases today

Do you believe?

The Sun of righteousness has arisen with healing in His wings!

Jesus is still … “healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease” today [Matt. 4:23]

Blessed are those that believes for there shall be a performance of those things that were told them from the Lord [Luke 1:45]

CHRIST HAS TAKEN AWAY OUR DISEASES! NO MORE SICKNESS AND DISEASES!
