"He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our
iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we
are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)
Jesus
came to earth and gave Himself as a sacrifice for sin in order to buy back for
you everything that Adam lost. He came to destroy all the works of the
devil...sickness and disease included. Once you receive Him as Lord of your
life, all the rights and privileges God originally
intended
you to have (the right to things like fellowship with God, health and
prosperity) are restored.
But
you are the one who has to exercise those rights!
You
see, the devil is an outlaw and even though Jesus has taken away his authority
in the earth, even though he has no legal right to kill or
steal
from the children of God, he'll do it anyway...as long as you'll let him get
away with it.
You
must enforce his defeat by speaking the Word of God in faith. Act on His Word
now. Demand that sickness and disease leave you in the Name of Jesus. Then
refuse to back off that demand. Resist the devil with all you've got. He might
fight you for a while, but sooner or later, he will have to flee from you!
