God Wants You HealthyEvery Day! GC 04 September 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. Exodus 23:25I have some revolutionary news for you today. God wants you healthy! Every day! Oh, I know that, you may quickly think, I know God will heal me when I get sick. Yes, thats true. He will. But thats not what Im saying. Im telling you Gods perfect will is for you to live continually in divine health. His will is for you to walk so fully in the power of His Word that sickness and disease are literally pushed away from you. Isnt that good news? Youve probably heard a lot about Gods healing power, but there is a difference between divine healing and divine health. Years ago, the powerful preacher John G. Lake put it this way, Divine healing is the removal by the power of God of the disease that has come upon the body. But divine health is to live day by day, hour by hour in touch with God so that the life of God flows into the body just as the life of God flows into the mind or flows into the spirit. Proverbs 4:20-22 tells us Gods Word is life to us and health to our bodies. That word health in Hebrew means medicine. Gods Word has life in it. It is actually spirit food. As you feed on it, you become strong spiritually and physically. When you read the Word and meditate on it, you are actually taking Gods medicine. If you will be faithful to take it continually, eventually it will be as hard for you to get sick as it was for you to get well. But its a process. You cant just read the healing scriptures once and then go on about your business. You must continually feed on the Word of God to keep healing in your life. When you do that, youll be walking healed every day! Youll be walking in divine health.Ecclesiastes 12; Song of Solomon 1; Psalm 22I serve the Lord my God, and He blesses my bread and my water and takes sickness away from my midst. Exodus 23:25
