(Galatians 6:7, NKJV)
Explanation:
If you are reading today’s Daily Meditation, you have only joined us at 20th Day. I will advise you to find time to study and meditate on the scriptures that we have discussed from day 1 of the 30 days program. In fact, we have a lot to cover and share which will be difficult to cover within 30 days. It is impossible to share everything I have learned over the last 12 years on this topic of Divine health and healings. During my early years in college, I put efforts to study Physics because it is full of Physical laws that are proven mathematically. The Law of gravity is very important. If you apply force on a stationery object, it will move proportionate to the applied force with the Law of Motion. Likewise, the Scripture exposes us to certain Spiritual laws. They are prevailing and controlling many aspects of our human life. It is very easy to ignore or dismiss that these spiritual laws do not apply today. The reality of their consequences cannot be overlooked. Life is spiritual. In this context, we will discuss 5 of spiritual laws that have influence on our health.
1.The Law of sowing and reaping: “While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, and day and night Shall not cease” (Genesis 8:22)
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap (Galatians 6:7). This law has both physical and spiritual connection. The spiritual law is connected to whatever you sow as evil or good can affect you and your generation. This is crucial in mapping certain issues that emanate within certain Generation. Imagine a man who has sown evils, the effects will likely be seen later in life and unto his fourth generations. The reason is that God has said: “You shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me (Exodus 20:5, NKJV).
2.The Law of sins and death: The law of sins and death also has both physical and spiritual connection. I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore, choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; (Deuteronomy 30:19).This is often connected with Obedience and disobedience to God’s commandment. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 8:23, NKJV). Adamic sin is a good example. It brought a serious penalty to humans following Adam and Eve’s disobedience in the Garden of Eden. Disobedience to God’s commandment attracts a penalty in the form of punishment such as curses. Curse is the absence of good things or the blessings. This law of sins and death is a choice between Life or Death. God said “See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil (Deuteronomy 30:15). Curses can manifest various difficult, challenging and incurable diseases. For instance, the scripture in Deuteronomy 28:14 – end contains several of those causes that you see as challenges of life today. Example is: The Lord will strike you with consumption, with fever, with inflammation, with severe burning fever, with the sword, with scorching, and with mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish (Deuteronomy 28:22, NKJV). Thanks be to God that Jesus Christ came and shed His blood for our redemption.
3.The Law of Love: The law of Love of God transcends from ages to current time. For instance, God gave the command to love Him: “that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them” (Deuteronomy 30:15). The law of Love features as “The Greatest commandment” given by Jesus Christ. A lawyer came to Jesus and said: “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
(Matthew 22:36-40, NKJV).
4.The Law of the Spirit of Life: For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death (Romans 8:2, NKJV). Jesus came to redeem us from the Law of sins and death discussed above. His blood was shed for our sins. Jesus is the resurrection and the Life. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live (John 11:25, NKJV).
Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith (Galatians 3:13-14, NKJV).
5.The Law of Faith: Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.
Faith is the currency of the Kingdom. The promise of the Spirit – Divine Health and Healings is accessed and obtained by faith.
Stay tune as we shall continue further tomorrow. Remain uncommonly blessed.
Confession:
The word of God is in my mouth. It is Life to my body, soul ,and spirit. For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, it is piercing even to the division of my soul and spirit, and of my joints and marrow, and is a discerner of my thoughts and intents of the heart.
I prosper in all my ways and have good success daily, monthly and all years to the Glory of God in the name of Jesus. My body is healthy and strong. I refuse sickness, diseases, and evils of this world. I exercise my dominion over devil and the cohorts of darkness. From today I declare my victory and protection in the name of Jesus.
