Hello believing ones!

Our supply of the spiritual realm will always FOLLOW OUR BELIEF in God and His Word!  When you BELIEVE that Jesus said, “IT IS FINISHED“, you will cease from doing things your own way and won’t continue to try to get God to do things He’s already done.  

For example, healing is a part of the finished works of Christ Jesus.  There are hundreds of healing scriptures in the Word of God, but for the sake of time, I will only mention one.  Let’s take a look at Isaiah 53:4-5 (NKJV),

  • Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.  But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

The Hebrew word, “griefs” has more than one meaning.  It also means sicknesses as we can clearly see from Deuteronomy 7:15.  They are the same Hebrews words.  In Matthew 8:17a, God inspired Matthew to translate it properly as saying,

  • Himself took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses.

The word “sorrows” in Isaiah 53:4 is also translated pains.  So we can read Isaiah 53:4 this way, “Surely, He hath borne our sicknesses and carried our pains!  Praise God that every sickness and every disease is under the curse of the law (see Deuteronomy 28:61).

We have a complete redemptive covenant because of all the Lord Jesus did for us!  It’s an amazing covenant and I urge you to find out what’s been given to you from the Word so you can take it as your own.  Don’t let one promise from the Word of God go unfulfilled!  

Let me conclude with Psalm 103:1-5,

  • Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name!  Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities,  Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

God is full of mercy, compassion and loving-kindness!  He loves you with an everlasting love!
