“My son, attend to my words; Incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; Keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, And health to all their flesh.”
◄ Proverbs 4:20-22
Congratulations, and welcome to another brand-new week!
As we step into another week of God's goodness, I'd like to begin by saying that God's plan for His children is not to live at the mercy of life's challenges, but to walk in victory through the power of His Word. One area where this victory is particularly important is our health. God's desire is for His people to enjoy wholeness and walk in dominion over sickness and disease (Jer. 30:17/Isa. 33:24).
Our teaching series this month is titled: Walking in Dominion over Sickness and Disease. In this series, we will explore the spiritual foundation of divine health, the forces behind diverse afflictions, and the scriptural provisions God has made available for our healing and deliverance. At a time when sickness and disease affect countless lives, understanding what God's Word says about our health is not merely encouraging - it is essential.
Scripture reveals that fear and spiritual oppression can be behind some afflictions, but believers are not helpless before them (2 Tim. 1:7/Luke 13:11–16). God has given us spiritual weapons that are mighty through Him, and His Word remains one of our most powerful weapons (2 Cor. 10:3-6).
The Word is God's balm, while Jesus Christ is our Great Physician (Jer. 8:22/Matt. 9:12). Its light brings healing and vitality (Isa. 58:8/Prov. 4:20-22). God's Word is also medicinal, surgical, creative, prophetic, and life-giving, with power to quicken our mortal bodies (Heb. 4:12/John 6:63).
This month, my prayer for you is that God's Word will illuminate every dark area in your life, terminate every affliction, restore every wounded area, and establish you in the liberty Christ purchased for you in Jesus name, Amen.
Divine health is your heritage in Christ!
