WE ARE HEALED

Philippians 2:26-27,30

I am sending him because he has been longing to see you, and he was very distressed that you heard he was ill.

And he certainly was ill; in fact, he almost died. But God had mercy on him—and also on me, so that I would not have one sorrow after another.

For he risked his life for the work of Christ, and he was at the point of death while doing for me what you couldn’t do from far away.


There has been the question, does the believer face ailments? Can a believer be sick?


Let us look at this, for it is crucial. There is a grace for health. The believer is promised healing from the Lord:


1Peter 2:24 

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.


Is there a need for healing for the believer, yes, thus it implies that the believer could be ill. Listen:


1 Corinthians 12:7,9

A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.

The same Spirit gives great faith to another, and to someone else the one Spirit gives the gift of healing.


I hope we understand the verse?


Thus the believer is not careless with their life, good hygiene, eating and other profitable habits should be maintained.


I used to tell my brethren in school those days that "No matter your anointing, if you refuse to take your bath, you stink!"


We still carry a human body, we must take care of it and also know when to rest. When Christ walked the earth as a man, He knew the importance of rest and He taught His disciples same, listen:


Mark 6:31-32

Then Jesus said, “Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile.” He said this because there were so many people coming and going that Jesus and his apostles didn’t even have time to eat.

So they left by boat for a quiet place, where they could be alone.


There is time to rest, to rejuvenate the body:


Matthew 14:22-23

Immediately after this, Jesus insisted that his disciples get back into the boat and cross to the other side of the lake, while he sent the people home.

After sending them home, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. Night fell while he was there alone.


We can prevent ill health by maintaining all the good health habits, however if it does come, our healing is available.


Thank You Dear Father for Your Healing. 


We are Healed in Jesus Christ, Halleluyah.


He calls us blessed.


Love
