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!
