HOW TO LIVE FREE OF SICKNESS

InSpired
WHY SHOULD YOU ENJOY GOOD HEALTH AS A BELIEVER?

Exodus 15:26 shows that men and women without Christ in their heart and eternal life in their Spirit are ordained to have diseases and sicknesses. 

Disease and sickness are recorded in Deut 28 and Leviticus 26 as the consequences of living a life of disobedient to God and His Way.

Rebellion and disobedience will always open a believer up to the same consequenes  men/women without Christ suffers but the Bible says for the Believer in Christ; JESUS BORE ALL YOUR INFIRMITIES- HE PAID IT ALL..

In the Old Testament  God said and promised He will remove sickness from among you. 
HOW? 
God promised to remove sickness among His children by healing all their diseases ( Psalm 103) and not allowing the diseases that plagued the world to come near their tent.

But the Old Testament  is an imperfect  shadow of the perfection of God in the New Testament. 
After our LORD and SAVIOUR died for the sins of mankind and removed our sin and it's consequences far from us as shown in Pslam 103;9-11;  Finally God is able to remove sickness completely from His children by making Jesus Christ bore it on the Cross.

Jesus Christ  bore sicknesses and diseases just as He bore sin. Just as the flesh was crucified on the Cross, the power of sickness and disease was also  destroyed.

IMPORTANT QUESTION
1. Is it a sin to be sick as a Christian?
ANSWER
It is not a sin for a Christian to become sick and even have a disease in their body. Most of the renowned healing Evangelists used by God in the Kingdom were men and women healed and delivered from the bed of affliction and from terminal diseases.

In their bid and dsepearation for healing, they encountered Christ Jesus, the great Physician and The Holy Spirit anointed them to bring healing to others.

But you will be cheating yourself and receiving the grace of God in vain if you allow the sickness and disease that The Christ had bore to remain your life.

PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF THE DIVINE HEALTH TRUTH.
Ignorance is one of the greatest thief of every spiritual blessings that faith in Jesus Christ, The LORD brings to the Believer.  

The Word of God says ' On Mount Zion, there is deliverance and the House of Jacob shall possess his possession. But you cannot possess what you don't know exist.

Apostle John was offering prayers for the Believer in 3 John 2 and said : ' My desire for you as a believer is that
1. You enjoy divine Health
2. You possess sound mind
3. And your Soul should prosper as well.

Divine Health can be defined as a life whereby you are not afflicted and controlled by sickness and diseases. The best word that should be used is :A life free of sickness and diseases.

It means if you are exposed to mosquitoes bites and the consequence should be malaria fever. The eternal life of God inside of you through the Blood of Jesus and the Holy Spirit will quench and destroy the poison and potency of the bite so that it has no effect on your body.

The malaria parasite released into your blood streams is destroyed by the blood of Jesus Christ that has entered your blood through Communion in Church.

It means if you are exposed to a situation that should result in an accident with adverse body harm. The angels of God who encamps around you will ensure that they bear you up in their hands so that either the accident does not take place or no bodily harm will come to you.  

The power of God's angelic protection was validated and emphasized by Satan himself during the temptation of Jesus Christ, The LORD.

"The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 

For it is written: “‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’” 

Jesus answered, “It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’” Luke 4:10-12.

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO WHEN SICKNESS  AND DISEASE IS ALREADY IN YOUR BODY.
