Perfect health is a gift from God. According to God, we are redeemed from the curse of the law, because Jesus bore our sicknesses and carried our diseases in His own body and by His stripes we are healed. Let’s go one step further with the following quote:
- “There is a straight line of absolute Truth upon which each one must walk to have demonstration. The slightest swerving in either direction from this line results in non-demonstration, no matter how earnest or intense one may be.
- The line is this: THERE IS ONLY GOD; ALL SEEMING ELSE IS A LIE.
- Whoever is suffering today from sickness, poverty, failure – any kind of trouble – is believing otherwise.” — How I used truth by H. Emilie Cady
For those of us who are unable to make that leap of faith just yet, there are affirmations (truths of God) which we speak over our physical bodies which, when believed, plug us into the healing power of God. Let us pray.
I serve the Lord my God, and He blesses my bread and my water, and He has taken sickness away from my midst. (Exodus 23:25, Deuteronomy 7:15)
Christ bore my sins in His own body on the tree, that I, having died to sins might live for righteousness – by whose stripes I am healed. (1 Peter 2:24)
I am prospering in all thing and I am in good health as my soul prospers. (3 John 2)
I am the body of Christ. I am redeemed from the curse of the law, because Jesus bore my sickness and carried my diseases in His own body. By His stripes I am healed. I forbid sickness or disease to operate in my body. Every organ, every tissue of my body functions in the perfection in which God created it to function. I honor God and bring glory to Him in my body. (Galatians 3:13, Matthew 8:17, 1 Peter 2:24)
I am of God and have overcome any spirit of infirmity because He who is in me is greater than he who is in the world. (1 John 4:4)
Pain, sickness, poverty, old age, and death can not master me for they are not real.
