Hello... James here.
In my previous "Part A" blog post, I explained that sin will allow sickness to thrive as all physical bodies are inherently subject to sin on Earth. Life is in the blood, but so is corruption, (sickness and disease) through sin. This is why Jesus was born to Earth. His blood was pure, not having been mixed with other corrupted blood. His sacrifice on the Cross of Salvation, atoned for the sins of every person born to Earth... past, present and future. Souls are now redeemable from the law of sin and death and physical bodies on Earth can be healed under the power of the new Blood Covenant.
Ultimately, God will replace a worn-out physical body with a new glorified body. This will occur when souls born of the Spirit of God, pass from Earth, on to Heaven.
Can God do these things? Well yes, He already has.
Scripture Reference: Leviticus 17 : 11
" ' For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I [God] have given it to you upon the alter to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.' "
Scripture Reference: Philippians 3 : 20 - 21
For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.
Scripture Reference: 1 Corinthians 15 : 39 - 44
All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds. There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised, in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Through lies and temptation, Satan seduces the World. Truth in the Spirit, which God has given for blessing, is rejected. Sin appeals to rogue feelings/emotions and the corrupted body of those who are unrighteous, but the fruit of righteousness produced by the Holy Spirit is incorruptible. Whether born again of the Spirit or not, sin is still possible, but now if we are children of God, even though we were once known as willful sinners and we might still sin, we are not sinners by desire. We are now known to God as His righteousness in Christ Jesus, which is how all the World can be if they so choose.
Seducing lies and temptation by Satan, are accepted over God’s words of warning, which is love. This results in physical pain and suffering. Sickness and disease often cause premature physical death, but no person is any more or any less important to God… not for any reason and this is why God gave His Son, Jesus so we would all live in His presence and not die. Jesus is the answer to every question concerning life and death.
The works of Satan were destroyed on the Cross of Salvation, so he no longer has power to control and oppress, but the consequences of sin remain in Earth and in our physical body. This remainder death sentence must be dealt with so our ultimate destination of eternal peace and glory can be realised. God has already provided for every need we have, but now it is our turn to move in faith toward God… a free will decision of our own making.
Satan has deceived the World by influencing their thoughts and many have become the so called, “voice of reason”, stating that sickness and disease is normal… no, not normal, but certainly prevalent. Every day there are masses of people willing to take this lie of normality on board, not just to believe it, but also to take ownership of it and worship the existence of sickness and disease as if it was a personal reward, given for the honour of suffering. I hear many times how people in conversation, say, “My cancer…” or “My sickness…”, thereby claiming ownership of the sickness or disease afflicting them. Deceived by Satan’s treachery, these well-meaning people drown in their own stubborn ways, often believing that God made them sick to teach them a lesson or that God just wants them to be in Heaven, because He is lonely. Seriously, this is ridiculously wrong thinking. God does want to know you and have a personal relationship with you, but He does not want to see anyone attempting to leave Earth prematurely, just to be with Him or for any other reason. Everyone needs to be born of the Holy Spirit… changed spiritually so they are actually able to enter into the Spirit realm of Heaven.
A mighty global war rages, with many thousands of diseases commanding attention and treatment daily. Covid strains hold the main card these days, but also, medical practitioners treating many deadly forms of cancer cannot guarantee permanent repair to any flesh body. Often, they use falsely comforting words such as remission. Attempts by the medical fraternity to counter outbreaks of sickness and disease on human flesh, is like playing tennis without a racket; cricket without a bat… there is nothing trustworthy with which to fend off the opposition. Mutant strains just keep on showing up and flesh bodies continue to wilt under every deadly assault.
Mortality is a curse we are all struck with as we continue to follow after the dictates of the flesh, and Truth is certainly elusive in this World so burdened by multi-faceted technology. Words listened to are not always fully understood or easily accepted as Truth, but why hide from Truth, which is given to bring eternal life and good health? I am sure there would be a rush to try out a new super-technology if it was the right price and guaranteed to work, so why not try out a new healing belief in the Spirit, by trusting the Living God. Faith, empowered by the Holy Spirit, is absolutely free to everyone and while I do not completely understand how faith stirred up engages power to heal, I do know it works for me.
God does not ever put sickness on you or on anyone else. This can never be good and definitely is not the goodness of God. This would be the evil of God and God is not evil… not even the slightest bit. If you think God could be evil in some way, maybe you misunderstood the Scriptures, or someone may have lied to you. Maybe you did not actually open the Bible and read the Scriptures for yourself in context.
I have found that it is far better to prepare the heart with Truth before sickness or disease attacks. When the physical body is not fortified at the time of a sickness attack, staging a defense through faith can be much more difficult. Focus on Jesus as the Living Word of God is imperative, rather than distraction served up by material things around us. Listening to doubters and negativity has no place in the corridors of healing by faith [trust] in Jesus. Jesus is the Healer, and the Holy Spirit is the power. God the Father is love, which brings everything together to make it work.
I would like to honour the medical fraternity by giving respect to every person involved and all that they do. Ambulance drivers and other first responders; doctors; nurses; surgeons; research and technology workers; and the like… they all do great work under difficult conditions and often with low wages and very little thanks. I remember the times you have helped me personally and thank you again as I did then, for giving so much. Let it be known that I believe anyone struggling to receive healing from the Living God, should always as a priority, receive whatever treatment they need from fully accredited medical practitioners.
And, I did recover totally from whatever disease or sickness attacked my body recently and as mentioned in Part A blog post.
Thanks for joining me and I hope to meet up with you again soon, via my next posting.
This is so true. Thanks. Kem
