One truth that resounds through the Scriptures is God’s desire for His children to dwell in health. He never intended for them to be victims of sickness or adverse circumstances.

God always wants His children well! When you study the Scriptures, you’ll find how He constantly sought ways to bring succor to His children in their times of affliction. He never left them without help.

In the Old Testament, He gave them laws to obey, and their obedience guaranteed their health and well-being. All they needed to do was obey, and they were sure to enjoy a lifetime of peace and prosperity. In Isaiah 1:19, God declared, “If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land.”

In the New Testament, we see the same awesome demonstration of love. When our Lord Jesus walked the earth, He wanted to give succor and life to a hurting and dying world.

Acts 10:38 says, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.”Through Christ’s sacrificial death and His resurrection, it has become possible for everyone to enjoy a life free of sickness and infirmity. This is God’s purpose and desire for everyone to always live a balanced healthy and prosperous life.

3 John 1:2 says, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” Some people think you can’t always be healthy; well, that’s not what the Word of God says. Healing became yours when Jesus took your place on the cross. It’s important to know that what He accomplished for you is not a partial healing, such that you could be sick sometimes and well at other times.

In truth, the Lord Jesus successfully bore your infirmities on His own body and died, so that you may continually enjoy a life of perfect health and never be brought down by sickness. This great truth becomes your vital experience when you believe and endorse it. The Bible says, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9-10).

In Romans 10:17, the Bible also says, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
