Be In Health

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. III John 2.

Did you know that was in the Bible? I didn't for many years after I became a Christian. There are many still today that are just like I was and I want to try and change that for them. You can see by this scripture that God wants you well and all your needs met.

This says "above all things" he wants us to prosper and be in health. Not just healed but to be in health. Being in health is different than gettting healed. Walking in health is to walk with God. Spending time in the word everyday and praying is what will get you to the place of being in health.

But as we can see to be in health and prosper depends on how our soul prospers. What does "soul prosper" mean? Did you ever read where it says that we are to renew our minds? We are to come out from the way we lived before we were born again and start living the way God says we are to live according to his word. We must read the word and study God's ways and get out mind to thinking like God thinks and obeying his word. Then our soul is prosperous. Its at this point that we can be prosperous and in health.

To be prosperous in the Lord includes every area of life. Not just financially but in our health, our marriage, socially, family, our mind, job, etc. We are to be prosperous in all areas of our life. This is what this verse is telling us. There are many Christians that are just the opposite from this verse. This is so because of a lack of knowledge. The Bible says people are destroyed because of that. We have to let people know what belongs to them so they can walk in it.

Here is another good scripture for you to read and meditate on so you can know that God wants you to have all your needs met and to be well and live in health.

Until Next Time.
Jesus loves me and you, and wants us all well, prosperous, and living in health.

Jesus Got Healing For You

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him: and by his stripes WE ARE healed. Isaiah 53: 5

Who his own self (Jesus) bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes we WERE healed. I Peter 2: 24.

Okay folks, look at those two verses and tell me if its God's will to heal you or not. The first one in Isaiah says, we ARE healed. Doesn't that mean we already ARE? Of course it does. Then you aren't going to be healed, you already ARE healed.

The next one in I Peter says we WERE healed. Well....I think that's plain enough that a child could understand, don't you? "Were" means already done, doesn't it? Sure it does! Peter was looking back at the cross and remembering what Jesus did for us. Jesus got healing for everyone at the cross the same as he got forgiveness for our sins. Can you see that?

I was sick for nearly 10 years and sat in my house and all kinds of awful things happened to me during that time. It would take too much time for me ever to tell you the whole story. But I lost everything before I found out the truth of what I'm telling you here. My life was never the same anymore and it was because I had no knowledge of healing or that Jesus had already paid the price for my healing and I was entitled to be healed just as much as I am entitled to be saved by the shedding of Jesus' blood. No one ever told me that!

Once I got hold of this truth and got well and out of my house, I tried to tell people about healing but they weren't too receptive. Why on earth would anyone not want to believe that healing is something they can have? That is a mystery to me. The sick ones will go to the Doctors and spend all the money they need to on medicine and pay for all kinds of tests' and never bat an eye. But you try telling some of them that Jesus will heal them and how to receive it and they will look at you strange. Do you know why? They haven't been taught about healing.

Some people even believe God put sickness on them to teach them something. My goodness, what kind of God would do that? Would you put sickness on your child if you could to teach them something? Of course not. Then why would anyone think God would do that to his children? He's a loving kind God that wants you well. Don't you ever believe that God wants you sick to teach you something. Sickness isn't the teacher of the church! The Holy Spirit is our teacher.

I'm going to get into some scriptures later on in other articles here that will show you how to receive healing for your body. If you are anything like I was those many years ago, it will be foreign to you, but if you need healing and will listen and read for yourself in your own Bible what I say here, then you can be healed to. God is no respector of persons, he has no favorites, he loves us all the same, and what he did for me, he'll do for you.

Jesus loves me this I know, and he loves you to and wants you well.
