The single most important work of the believer is that of renewing his or her mind. Without goals set towards this labor the believer will never, while on this Earth, see into the full purpose of God’s plan for the Body of Christ. Getting the mind renewed is essential to the Spirit led life of the Believer. Without the renewed mind, the Body is dwarfed in the light of God’s full standard of height for us in Christ. That is why we study the Pauline Revelation concerning who we are in Christ and what our responsibilities are, now that we have been born again. We are to allow the Holy Spirit to give us a pure revelation of the work of Jesus Christ.

Healing and Divine Health, is one of the many possessions that belong to the saints, because of the wonderful work of redemption, Jesus Christ has wrought. Because of not rightly dividing the Word of God, there has been much confusion on the subject and many of Fathers children are plagued with sickness and disease. In fact, every person I know has some kind of ailment in his or her body. The very fact that we age is a product of sickness and disease. These symptoms do not negate the fact the Jesus came to bring us life and life abundantly.

John 10:10

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Read the words of Jesus in the Gospels and you will find they are full of life statements. Father God created man in his image and in him was no sickness or disease. Before his fall into unbelief, Adam did not have a bad back, cancer or any other disease that is rampant in man today. He had life (Zoe, God life). Every sickness came upon man, as a result of the fall of Adam. He released the force of sin into the earth and the result of sin, was sickness and disease. Deut. 28, God told the children of Israel of all the curses that would befall them, if they disobeyed him.

If you will read the account of Passover in Exodus, you will find a picture of fallen man in bondage to Satan. God's chosen people (Israel) were in slavery (bondage) to Egypt. They had every sickness and disease, man could have. They were not free to live in the Promise Land, they were in total bondage. God came to deliver them and on the night of Passover, he told them to take a lamb, roast it with fire and eat every bit of it. They were not to leave any of it uneaten. Because they did this in obedience, they left that place of bondage and slavery, completely whole in body and the Word says not one of them was feeble.

Ps 105:37

37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.

The word for ‘feeble’ in the Greek is, Strongs 3782 kashal (kaw-shal’); a primitive root; to totter or waver (through weakness of the legs, especially the ankle); by implication, to falter, stumble, faint or fall: KJV - bereave, cast down, be decayed, (cause to) fail, (cause, make to) fall (down, -ing), feeble, be (the) ruin (-ed, of), (be) overthrown, (cause to) stumble, X utterly, be weak.

Being feeble is the result of age, sickness, bondage and slavery. Decay had set in because of their years of serving the Egyptians with very little medical help or proper nutrients. God came in the person of Jesus Christ, to set man free from being in Adam and all the consequences of that union. He sent the "Lamb of God, slain before the foundation of the world," into the realm of time. Jesus Christ fully manifested the will of God and in doing so, became that roasted Lamb, and we to are told to eat the whole Lamb leaving nothing behind. Paul and John were given the revelation of Jesus Christ by Jesus Christ himself. We are told in Paul’s writings to eat the Lamb, study what has been done and to see our union with Jesus Christ, in his redemptive work. John the revelator, revealed to us how Jesus defeated Satan and how the sting of death has been removed from mankind, in Christ. The system of truth laid out for us by the Holy Spirit, through the writings of Paul revealed to us what we must eat on, which brings forth the manifestation of eternal life from within us, to upon us. Everything that is done, because of redemption, is true in our spirits now.  We consist of a spirit; soul (mind, will and emotions) and we live in a body. The life (Zoe) within us, will flood upon us, as we meditate and eat the Lamb of God. The result of this will be a redeemed body.

Romans 8:23-24

23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

We are living in the day when the manifestation of the Son of God is showing up in his body. We must position ourselves to cooperate with Father God’s will for his new creation being. Colossians 1:27 it is recorded that the hope of Christ appearing in this earth is "Christ in you." He first must appear in his body. There is an enemy that must be destroyed in the body and that enemy is death. Death, is the result of sickness, disease and ageing. But death comes from a condition in the soul (mind, will and emotions) of man.

I Cor 15:25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

Paul explains to us what causes death in Romans 8:6 for to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. So our enemy is the carnal mind. It is very important we understand what these words "life and peace" mean in the original text. We already understand that life, is God life, but I also want you to see what "peace" means in the Greek.

NT: 1515 eirene (i-ray’-nay); probably from a primary verb eiro (to join); peace (literally or figuratively); by implication, prosperity: KJV - one, peace, quietness, rest. + set at one again.

Peace means to be one with, at rest with, and to be set as one again. Jesus Christ did this for us and as us already. We must renew our minds to this fact. We need to see some things. Let’s look at Romans 8:24 again. "For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?" The church is hoping for a lot of things to take place in their life. At the end of the year 1999, there was much hope for a great event to take place. What they thought was going to happen did not, so what they were looking for was deferred in their minds. Thus, causing sickness.

Proverbs 13:12

12 Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

KJV

I believe many things we have been hoping for, are present realities today and they belong to us now. God is in the eternal now. What he has spoken, has already taken place and our goal should be to find out what has been done, see what has been done and draw our life source from that. If it is something we are hoping for, then we do not benefit from the object of our hope presently. We must see what Christ Has done and in seeing it, moves from the realm of hope to the realm of reality.

Thus, the reason for meditating on the subject of healing.

Meditate on the following Scriptures and confessions and allow the Holy Spirit to give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Jesus Christ. As you study, let Him cause you to see, that healing and divine health is a present possession of the saints.

Exodus 15:25-26

25 And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them, 26 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 healeth thee. God is saying I am the Lord your healer, I am the Lord the physician, I am the Lord your life-giver, I, Jehovah, am healing thee, for I, the Lord, make you immune to them (diseases). I, the Lord, will bring thee only health.

God is speaking to me now, saying, "I am the Lord that healeth thee." He is watching over his Word to perform it. He is the Lord that healeth me. He is healing me now. This Word contains the ability to produce what it says. He is the Lord that healeth me. He is healing me now. His Word is full of healing power. I receive this Word now. I receive the healing that is in His Word now. Healing is inherent in God’s nature. God is in me. My body is the temple of God. My body is the temple of the Lord that healeth me. God is bigger than sickness and disease. God is dwelling inside of me now, and his life is flowing through my body. The Lord that healeth me is my Shepherd; I do not lack healing. My body is in contact with the Lord that healeth me. My body is in union with the Lord that healeth me. My body has to respond to God’s healing life and nature at work in me now. Healing is in God and God is in me. I thank you Father, because you are my Healer and You are causing health to manifest in me now.

Exodus 23:25

25 And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.

My bread is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ and my union with him. My water, is the water of the Word, that flows through my spirit, soul and body, which brings about wholeness. He takes all diseases from me. He keeps sickness away from me because he said, "I will."

"I will" is the strongest assertion that can be made in the English language. God is speaking to me now saying, "I will take sickness away from the midst of thee." God is watching over this Word, performing it in me now. He is taking sickness away from the midst of me. I worship the Lord my God who takes sickness away from the midst of me. Good-by, sickness; the Lord is taking you away from the midst of me. Thank you, Father, for taking sickness away from me. I can see what you have done in the person and work of Jesus Christ, I believe what you have done and I thank you for causing me to see and to believe. Because I can see healing, healing belongs to me. Divine health belongs to me because of your redemptive work. In Christ there is no sickness or disease, therefore, there is none in me, because I am in complete union with Christ.

Deuteronomy 7:15

15 And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee.

The Lord is taking away from me all sickness. Sickness and disease does not belong to me. I have been redeemed from the curse. His Word contains the ability to do what it says. His Word will not return void, but, accomplish what it was sent to do. Sickness is going out of me now. Thank you, Father, for taking away from me all sickness, like you said.

Psalms 30:2

2 0 LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. I believe I have received my healing, Mark 11:24. Thou has healed me. I don’t consider what I feel. I believe I am healed. Thou has healed me.

Psalms 42:11

11 Why art thou cast down, 0 my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God. I refuse to be cast down or discouraged. I am in the conqueror. I will yet praise him Who is the health of my countenance and my God. Father, I praise you because You are the health of my countenance.

Psalms 91:1-6

1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

Psalms 91:10

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

Anyone dwelling in the secret place of the Most High, will procure himself lodging under the very shadow of the Almighty One. He will take you out of the bird-net, and keep you safe from wasting diseases. He will keep you safe from all hidden dangers and from all deadly disease and from the deadly plague (Fall of Adam). It is he that keeps me from every treacherous snare, from every whisper of harm. Sheltered under his arms, under his wings nestling, thou art safe; his faithfulness will throw a shield about me. I will have no fear from nightly terrors, from the assault of man. Because you Jehovah are my refuge and you are the Most High, there is none greater. No disaster will befall me, no calamity will come upon my home. Sickness will not approach me, nor contagions not enter my rest.

I’m abiding under the shadow of the Almighty. Jehova-rapha, the Lord that healeth me, is my refuge and fortress against disease. His Word is my shield and buckler against sickness. I’m trusting under His wings, and there is healing in His wings (Malachi 4:2). I’m not afraid of disease. I’m not afraid of sickness. I’m abiding under the shadow of Jehova-rapha, the Lord that healeth me. No plague shall come nigh my dwelling or my body. I resist sickness and disease. I refuse to accept it; it’s not mine. I refuse to be sick in Jesus’ name. Sickness cannot trespass my body. Sickness (name it), you can’t come nigh my dwelling. I refuse you; I resist you. I am a new creation being in Christ, and this new creation body I live in, has no place for sickness. It contains the life of God and the life of God swallows all mortality.

2 Corinthians 5:4

4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed (Illuminated) upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

The Holy Spirit is revealing to me, the person and work of Jesus Christ, with His help I am renewing my mind to who I am in Christ and my union with Him, and because of that the life of God within me is being released to swallow sickness and disease.

Psalms 103:2-3

2 Bless the LORD, 0 my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

Bless the Lord, Jehova-rapha, 0 my soul. Blessed be God the Father. Lord, I praise you; Lord, I thank you. Praise you for your benefits. You forgive all my sin, all my faults, all my failures and disobedience. You heal all my diseases, and I thank you for it. Healing and health belongs to me as part of the New Covenant. Healings is my redemptive right. (A benefit is a condition of a contract, not a bonus thrown in extra at the discretion of the employer.) Thank you Father, for healing all of my diseases.

Psalms 107:20

20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.

Thank you Father for sending your Word (Jesus Christ) and healing me of all of the effects of Adams fall. I am free from the corruption of sin and death. Your Word contains your ability to perform what it says (Isaiah 55:10, 11). You Word is healing me now and working in me now. You have sent your Word and healed me.

Psalms 1:1-3

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Jesus is the man that walked not in the counsel of the ungodly and stood not in the way of the sinner, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. Jesus’ delight is in the law of the Lord and he mediated day and night in it. He is the Tree of Life that is planted in the water and bringeth forth fruit and his leaf does not wither, and he prospered in all he came to do. I am in Him, so I am blessed (happy). The Tree of Life flows through me and I draw from him for my nutrients. I draw life from Jesus Christ and that life drives out everything, which opposes life.

Proverbs 4:20-22

20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.

21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.

22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

God’s Word is health to all my flesh. His Word is medicine to my flesh. "1 am the Lord that healeth thee" is medicine to my flesh now. "I will take away from thee all sickness" is medicine to all my flesh. The Word of God is full of the life of God. That life is saturating my spirit. God’s life and healing power is in His Word and His Word is at work in me now. The Word of God is depositing the life of God and the healing of God into my spirit. That life and health is spreading out of my spirit into every tissue and cell of my body, creating health and soundness. My body has no choice but to respond to the healing in the Word that is being absorbed into me now.

Proverbs 12:18

18 There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.

I consider the words that come forth from my lips. I will use wise words and speak on what is true of me in Christ. A reckless tongue, wounds like a sword, but there is healing power in thoughtful words. Thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal. I will only speak Words that the Holy Spirit speaks of a person in Christ. Isaiah 57:19 the Father spoke through Isaiah the prophet, "I create the fruit of thy lips....," thus I will speak only what is true.

Speaking the Word makes me well. I have what I say. I say, "The Lord is my healer." I say, "He takes sickness away from me." I say, "No plague come nigh my dwelling." I say, "He healeth all my diseases." What I see and confess, I possess. My words make me well. There is healing power in my words, for they are God’s words. I speak health to every muscle, tissue, fiber, and cell in my body. I release God’s healing power with His words into my whole body. Healing is mine!

Proverbs 17:22

22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

Being cheerful keeps me healthy, so I will not allow any thought or person to cause me to have a broken spirit. A glad heart is excellent medicine; a spirit depressed, wastes the bones away. So, I will remain glad, for he hath made me glad. I will not allow depression to come nigh me, because it wastes the bones of my body away. Psalms 92:4 for thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! I have a merry heart! Sickness can’t dominate me. The effects of a man in Adam, cannot dominate me. Sickness was taken from me at the cross and I have a merry heart. A merry heart works like medicine and God’s medicine is working in me.

Isaiah 53:3-5

3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Surely (I guarantee you), He hath borne my sickness and diseases and carried my pains. He took my sickness on Himself, and carried my pains. He bore them and carried them away. I don’t have to bear what He bore for me and as me. I refuse to bear what He bore. By His stripes I got healed and I am healed. I refuse to allow thoughts to live in my mind that is otherwise. By His bruising there is healing for my inner sickness. His punishment brought me healing. I am whole by the blows He received because I was in him. My disease went to the cross with Jesus and died with Him there. Sickness can only thrive in a body without life, my body contains all the life of God there is, and thus sickness must perish. I am whole spirit, soul and body and it is manifesting in my life, as I see and believe.

Malachi 4:2

2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

The Son of righteousness has arisen, having conquered sickness and the cause of sickness. There is healing in His Wings. That healing is beaming into me now by His Word. I am trusting beneath His wings.

Matthew 8:2-3

2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

3 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

Jesus wants me cured, of the effects of Adam. He did so in my spirit and it is available to my body, as I renew my mind. He was willing for the leper to be cleansed and he went to the cross, that all man can be cleansed. I am in Him, thus I possess the benefits of the work on the cross. Health is mine! God wants me well. Healing is the will of God. God is at work in me right now to will and to do His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13). I can see it is true, therefore I believe.

Matthew 8:16-17

16 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:

17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

Himself took my infirmities and bare my sicknesses. He carried away my sicknesses. He took them away; He bore them away and removed them. Disease is not mine. Disease is not part of a new creation being in Christ. I refuse to bear what Jesus bore. I refuse to take up again, what He bore for me. I will not tolerate sickness. Sickness or disease is totally unacceptable. Jesus bore them and I refuse to have them.

Mark 5:25-34 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

Her faith made her whole and my faith makes me whole. My faith is in the person and work of Jesus Christ. I have faith, for I am a believer. I put my whole spirit, soul and body in the trust of Jesus Christ and what he has done. I believe I receive my healing and my faith makes me whole. The power that raised Christ from the dead is at work in me (Ephesians 1:19) My faith puts the power into active operation in my body. Disease has no choice, no chance for survival in my body. In fact it cannot enter my being. The power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead, dwells within me and that power is quickening my mortal body. I am free; I am entirely free from sickness and disease. I am whole. I believe I have received my healing, and my faith has made me whole.

Luke 13:11-13

11 And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.

12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.

13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

Luke 13:16

16 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?

Satan has been defeated, destroyed, brought to not, therefore he can’t bind me with sickness. It is what I think of sickness that gives it power over me. I have been delivered from Satan’s dominion and translated into the kingdom of the Son of God. (Colossians 1:13) Sickness is ungodly and violates the kingdom of God. Sickness is of the devil, which has been defeated. Jesus stripped him of all authority (Colossians 2:15, Hebrews 2:14). So sickness has no power or right in my body, nor my families. I am delivered, I am free, I have been loosed and I am no longer fettered. I am now rid of infirmities. I am not feeble. Jesus is the seed of Abraham and all the blessings to Abraham are in Christ, I am in Christ therefore I have the blessings of Abraham dwelling in me. Healing is in the New Covenant and I am under the New Covenant, therefore I have healing. I have a right to be whole and therefore I confess that I am whole. I am not looking in the realm of the carnal intellect for understanding. I live in a new sphere, which is the heavenly realm and these are spiritual truths that are manifesting in my body now. My new creation body is taking over.

Acts 10:38

38 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.

Sickness, is oppression that came from the devil, and I am not under his dominion any longer. I cannot be oppressed any longer. I have authority to tread on all the false power of the enemy. I tread on sickness, it is no longer a power or force that I am under. It can’t be lorded over me any longer. The power that raised Jesus from the dead, is at work in me. It is healing power, because, He is the Lord that health. Healing power is at work in me and I am free.

Luke 10:19

19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Sickness, was a power the devil had. (Acts 10:3 8) Jesus trampled on all the power of the devil and I am the body of Christ therefore, the power the devil had, is under my feet. I trample on disease. I stomp on disease because Jesus the head did so. The Lord Jesus Christ himself gave me authority over all the power of the enemy. His power has been stripped from him, therefore, I tread over any perceived power he might have in my thought process. I renew my mind to the truth. The truth is, Satan is defeated and powerless in my life. Sickness and disease are under my feet because I am seated with Christ above all the power of the enemy (Ephesians 2:6).

Romans 8:2

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

Romans 8:11

11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

The Spirit of God is residing in me. The Spirit of God has made His home in my spirit. The Spirit of Jehovah-rapha is in me, giving life to my body. The Spirit of the Lord that healeth is creating life, supplying life in my body, making me whole. His Spirit who dwells in me is applying the life of Jehovah-rapha to my body. I draw from that life. The life of God drives out every trace of sickness and disease. The life of God is destroying disease germs in my body now and from henceforth destroys any disease germ before it comes into my body. My body has been created to resist germs, and now the life of God is restoring my body functions, and they will work accordingly.

1 Corinthians 6:13

13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them.

Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

1 Corinthians 6:15

15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

My body wasn’t made for sin but for the Lord. My body wasn’t made for sickness, but for the Lord. My body is a member of Christ. My body belongs to Christ. My body is the temple of Jehovah-rapha, the Lord that healeth. No weapon formed against me can prosper and that includes sickness. God is in me healing me now, for He is the Lord that healeth me. I have been bought with a price. Jesus’ blood cleansed me from all sin, and by His stripes, my body is healed. I glorify God in my body. I refuse to allow disease in my body in Jesus’ name. I command in the name of Jesus Christ for disease and sickness to leave my body now.

Galatians 3:13

13 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 hangeth on a tree:

Christ ransomed me from the curse of the law by taking that curse upon him self. Christ has purchased my freedom, and he who the Son sets free, is free indeed.

Deuteronomy 28:21-22

21 The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.

22 The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.

Deuteronomy 28:27-28

27 The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with~ the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.

28 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:

Deuteronomy 28:35

35 The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.

Deuteronomy 28:59-61

59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.

60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou waste afraid of and they shall cleave unto thee.

61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.

Pestilence, is disease after disease.... Consumption, is tuberculosis, infectious diseases and wasting disease. Inflammation, is fever and infections. Extreme burning is influenza, and sunstroke. The sword, is drought and blasting is blight. Mildew, is jaundice or paleness. The botch of Egypt, is inflammatory disease, ulcers and boils. Emerods, is tumors, hemorrhoids, swelling in the groin, sores and piles. Scab, would be scurvy, incurable itch, festering sores, itch and skin eruptions. Madness, is insanity, loss of our mind, distracted, or minds diseased. Astonishment of heart, is distraction of mind, confusion, confusion of mind, dismay, dismay of heart (mind), crazed in the wits, confusion of heart, fear and panic. Sore botch, is ulcers, boils, sores, a skin disease or a sore inflammation. Plagues, are thy strokes and the strokes of the seed, malignant and obstinate diseases, incurable diseases and horrible epidemics, sever and lasting plagues and chronic sicknesses. Cruel diseases stretching on through long years and extraordinary strokes and blows. Then verse 61 makes a statement to cover every sickness not listed. "...every kind of sickness and disaster not recorded in this Book of the Law..."

Christ, has redeemed me from the curse of the law, for he bore all of these on the cross as me. The curse of the law, includes sickness, as the Scriptures above show. Christ bought me back, brought me back, and set me free from the curse of the law. Sickness and disease is part of the curse of the law; therefore Christ has redeemed me from sickness. I am liberated, I am ransomed, and I am free from disease. I am redeemed from every disease written in the curse of the law. "I am redeemed from ______________________________________." I am also redeemed from every disease that is not written in the Book of the Law. Christ has redeemed me, brought me back, and set me free from all sickness and disease.

Ephesians 4:27

27 Neither give place to the devil. Hebrews 2:14

14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

The Greek word for ‘destroy’ is, katargeo (kat-arg-eh’-o): to be (render) entirely idle (useless), literally or figuratively: KJV - abolish, cease, cumber, deliver, destroy, do away, become (make) of no (none, without) effect, fail, loose, bring (come) to nought, put away (down), vanish away, make void.

Jesus destroyed the devil and his works; therefore I give no place to that fallen foe. I do not give him honor or glory, by giving him credit for any sickness, that is illegally in my body. I know that death now comes from the carnal mind; therefore sickness is the result of living out of a carnal mind. I am renewing my mind to the truth of salvation, (being made whole) and allowing the Holy Spirit to reveal these truths to me. I am rightly dividing the Word of God, so the Word of God can rise up within me and cleanse me of any unrighteous thoughts of my position or myself with God. I am whole and that includes divine health. So I refuse to give any place to a fallen enemy. I give place to Christ Jesus my Lord and Savior. It is in him that I live and move and have my being. I am a new creation being, because, I am in Christ and in the body of Christ there is wholeness. When I make statements like, "The devil did this or the devil did that," I am giving room to that fallen foe. That gives him power in my life even though Jesus Christ has destroyed him. I will no longer think that way; I am no longer ignorant to the fact that the carnal mind brings death. Therefore I am renewing my mind to the point that I draw only from the mind of Christ. My old thoughts are perishing and righteous thoughts are coming forth.

Colossians 1:12

12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

I am qualified, entitled, worthy, and able to partake of my inheritance in Christ. Healing belongs to me (Psalms 102:3). I refuse to be robed of my inheritance because of lack of knowledge. I will study, pray and believe what is true of me in Christ.

Colossians 1:13

13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

I have been delivered from the authority of darkness. (Acts 26:18) I have passed out of the jurisdiction of spiritual death into the kingdom of the Son of God. I am a citizen in the kingdom of Jehovah Rapha, the Lord that healeth me. I have been transplanted into the kingdom of His Son. In that Kingdom is righteousness, peace, love and joy in the Holy Ghost. None of that contains sickness.

Colossians 1:14

14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

In Christ Jesus I have redemption. I have been ransomed from captivity. I am delivered from sickness. I am free from all of the effects of Adams fall. The blood of the Lamb has redeemed me and I am in total union with Father God.

James 4:7

7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

I submit to God, I submit to the will of God. I accept the authority of God and His Word. I submit to God’s Word. I resist anything opposing His Word. I resist disease.

Sickness and disease cannot ravish my body, they must leave, and germs must leave and flee from my body, because, I am full of God life. Bones out of joint must come into alignment, because Jesus Christ’ bones were out of alignment, so mine can be straight. Nerves must be healed and function properly. I resist sickness and disease by renewing my mind to the redemptive work of Christ, therefore releasing His life to cleanse my spirit, soul and body.

James 5:14-15

14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and. the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

The prayer of faith has made me whole. The Lord is raising me up. I cannot stay down. I believe, I received, when I prayed, and my faith makes me whole. I believe I have received healing and it is at work in my now. Father, help me in areas of unbelief. I recognize the importance, of the laying on of hands by the elders of the church; the prayer of the elders and anointing of oil in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ. When sickness manifest in my body, I will call for the elders to pray for me and agree with me. Because you have shown me my union with you and that healing is mine because of your redemptive work, then I can join in the prayer of faith and be healed. Further more I believe as my mind is being renewed to these truths, that divine health is working in my body.

1 Peter 2:24

24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being. dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

By His stripes I was healed. Healing belongs to me. I was healed over 2000 years ago by the stripes, Jesus bore. By His stripes I was healed. I’m not trying to get healing. I’ve got healing, because by His stripes I was healed. I am not confessing these truths to make them true, I confess them because they are true and I’m renewing my mind to the facts contained in the Scripture.

1 Peter 5:8-9

8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

I stand immovable against sickness in Jesus’ name. I refuse to accept it. I choose to believe the report of the Lord.

1 John 3:8

8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Sickness was the work of the devil. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil, and he did. I have seen the point in time where the devil was destroyed. It was in the resurrection of my Lord and Savior. Sickness has been dissolved, broken up, annulled, undone, and liquidated, as far as I am concerned. Jesus put sickness to an end for me. The activities of the devil have been liquidated. I am exposing my mind to the Way, the Truth and the Life. All thoughts that bring on sickness are being eradicated as I feed on the Lamb of God. I eat the whole lamb, leaving nothing to remain. I am in union with Jesus’ redemptive work. Everything that is true of Jesus Christ, is true of me.

3 John 2

2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

I am prospering and I am in health, even as my mind, will and emotions prosper, because it is God’s will for me. God is at work in me, to do His will and pleasure. Jehovah-Rapha is at work in me, healing me.

Philippians 2:13

13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

God is at work in me. Jehovah-Rapha is at work in me, healing me. He is the Lord that health me. God is greater than any sickness or disease. Healing is greater than sickness.

Zoe, God’s life is greater than sickness and disease. He is the Vine and I am the branch, everything in the Vine flows into the branch. I draw my life source from that Vine. God is at work in me, healing me.

Luke 10:19

19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Sickness, is an enemy and it comes from the last enemy, which is the carnal mind. I trample on sickness and disease. The Lord Jesus Christ gave me power over all my enemies. I have authority over sickness and disease, because they are enemies. Get out of my body, in Jesus’ name. Sickness and disease are under my feet, because I am seated with Christ, above all power of the enemy. (Ephesians 2:6) Jesus Christ has defeated the kings of carnality, which produce sickness and I am commanded to put my feet on their neck and walk above them and on them. They do not belong in the mind or temple of the Most High God, which is my mind and my body.

Mark 16:17-18

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

The name of Jesus is greater than sickness. Jesus conquered sickness and disease. In the name of Him who conquered sin, sickness, and Satan, I command disease to leave my body. In the name of Jesus, I am free.

John 14:12-14

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

Jesus guarantees me that I can use his name, if I believe in Him. Jesus you said whatsoever I ask in your name, you will do. So I ask in your name to give me a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of your redemptive work. I use your name and command in the name of Jesus, disease to leave my body. I cast __________ out in the name of Jesus Christ. You have no place in me and I am free, in the name of Jesus Christ.

16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

His name, through faith in His name, makes me whole, gives me perfect soundness, and makes me strong. The name of Jesus, is greater than sickness. All that He is, is in His name. All He did, is in His name. He is greater than sickness. He conquered sickness. I speak His name, Jesus, to my body now. Every disease germ dies now, in Jesus’ name. My body is made whole in Jesus’ name.

Galatians 2:20

20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

Christ, took me to the cross with him; I died there with him. It is no longer I but Christ living in and through this body. The old man in Adam was crucified with Christ, died with Christ, buried with Christ. Now, a new creation being was quickened, I am in Him, he was raised and I am raised with Him and now He is seated at the right hand of the Father and I am seated with Him, in heavenly places. I died with Him to sickness and disease and Christ the healer lives in me.

John 15:4-5

4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

You must go on growing in me and I will grow in you. For just as the branch cannot bear any fruit, unless it shares the life of the vine, so I can produce nothing, unless you go on growing in me. I am the vine itself, you are the branches. It is the man who shares my life and whose life I share who proves fruitful. For the plain fact, is that apart from you Jesus, I can do nothing at all. I am in union with Christ. My spirit is in union with Christ the Healer. I draw out His healing power and it is manifested in my body. I am one with the healing Vine. I am in union with the healing Christ. I have His life and health in me. In the name of Jesus Christ all these truths are true of me!
