Part 4 The Promise

In this last part we have the promise given to us by God the Father."I (GOD) will put none of these diseases upon thee,which I have brought upon the Egyptians:for I(GOD)am the Lord that healeth thee. Here is the thing if we as the children of God follow the first three than we have the assurance from God that he will be our healer.God fullfilled this promise in Jesus. Jesus came to bring us life. Jesus even said in John 10:10"The thief cometh not, but for to steal,kill,and to destroy: Now listen to what Jesus says as to why he came"I(Jesus) am come that they might have life:and that they might have it more abundantly. Lets ask the question: Who are the they Jesus is talking about, could it be the born again child of God? God our Father has always had the best interest for His creation in his heart. He sent the Word to us. In the gospel of John chapter 1:14"And the word was made flesh, dwelt among us,(and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth. Who is this word? It is Jesus and God the Father sent him to bring healing to us. I believe healing not only involves our physical bodies but it also involves our soul. When you and I were born again the new birth took place in our spirit and the spirit that once was blinded by the darkness of sin now has been awkened out of darkness and brought into the gloriuos light of Gods presence. But we renew our soul and build it up in the presence of God by the Word.I believe this is where Romans 12:2 must become a reality listen to the Words of Romans 12:2"And be not conformed to this world: be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind,that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable and perfect will of God. I have studied the teachings of the great men of faith and they all seem to agree on one thing that the soul is where your mind,will and emotions are carried out. If this be the case then for you and I to renew our minds we have to open up our soul to the Word and guidence of the Holy Spirit. If you really think about it before Jesus came in we never gave any thought to what we were going to do. Our attitude was if it feels good do it. Taht was because we were blinde by the darkness but now the life of God is now in our spirit giving us the ability to see the truth. These four parts deal with Gods covenat of healing and Jesus is the full fillment of this covenant. I truly beleive that this promise of healing belongs to every born again child of God.I wouls like to leave you with thses words from 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 rightuosness: by whose stripes ye were healed. I here people say bore our sins on his body, but the word says he bore them in his body when you take something in your body it becomes a part of you you cant wash it off. Jesus bore in his body so that he could destoy it through his death. He destroyed the consequences of sin through his death. Notice it also says " we being dead to sins should live unto righteousness. We are supposed to be dead to sin this to me means sin can be all around us but if Christ is Lord of our life it can not attach itself to us becuase we have the power with in us to say no. I want to close with these words from the gospel of John1:12"But as many as received him,(Jesus) to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. The same power that worked in Jesus as he walked this earth is living in us who believe in his name.Think about it. Have a Blessed and Healthy Day. From Pastor Ken
