The Healer Is Living In Us
I was listening to a healing service this weekend and a revelation came to me about healing and divine health that I had never seen before. Maybe you have already seen it. If you have, that is wonderful.
In the Old Testament, the Old Covenant, before Jesus came and died and rose again and instituted the New Covenant, He was their Healer. They did have the promise of healing. We see in many passages in the Old Testament that He was their Healer. In fact, we see in Exodus 23:25,26 that the Lord God would take sickness away from their midst, that He would fulfill the number of their days. We see that He was Jehovah Rapha, their Healer.
In Psalm 103:1-5 we see a list of promises for those in the Old Covenant. They were to bless the Lord with everything that was within them. They were to bless His holy name. They were to extol, worship, praise Him for His benefits. They were to remember His benefits. Then His benefits are listed. In the same sentence we see that He forgives all their iniquities and He heals all their diseases. Then we read that He redeems their life from destruction. He crowns them with lovingkindnesses and tender mercies. He satisfies their mouth with good things so that their youth is renewed like the eagle’s, strong and powerful like the eagle’s.
The above passage is Old Covenant. Look at the benefits. They are ours as well. But we are living in the New Covenant, which Hebrews says is a better covenant. What could be better than this. I’ll tell you what is better.
In the Old Covenant, the promises were given to them, but God was living outside them. When Jesus came, died and rose again, He, the Promiser, the Holy Spirit is inside us with the promises. Oh, I am telling you, this is shouting ground. The Promiser lives inside us with all His promises to be active in our lives. And part of those promises is healing and health. The answer to divine health is getting an understanding of Who is inside you. We must learn what it means to have the Healer inside us. It means that He is there 24-7 to flow through our blood vessels and arteries and veins to every cell in our bodies to bring His divine life flow through us.
The Healer is living inside us. The Provider is living inside us. He is in us with all His benefits. He is in us with His nature. He is living in us all the time. Of course, I am talking about people who have made Jesus the Lord of their lives, who have been born again. He has come to take up residence. There are so many scriptures that confirm that. I guess the greatest scriptures are those which tell us that our bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit.
1 Corinthians 6:19,20 tells us that our bodies are the temples of the Holy Ghost which is in us, which we have of God and we are not our own. We are bought with a price. 2 Corinthians 6:16 tells us that we are the temples of the living God. He has said: I will dwell in you and walk in you and be your God and you shall be my people.
In Romans 8:11 we read that if the Spirit Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He Who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead shall quicken (give life) to your mortal bodies. That is talking about God’s life, zoe life, the life of divine health, God’s life.
Oh, what a Savior. He has purchased us from the clutches of satan and his demonic pressures and challenges. Jesus Christ has restored us to the position of righteousness with His Father. Now God Almighty is our Father, if we accept the relationship. When we come back into relationship with Him, we are members of His household, members of His Kingdom, sons and daughters of the Most High God, children of the King, kings and priests unto Him. We are in the position of health, prosperity, righteousness, joy, peace, love, because Jesus has paid the price for us to be restored to our rightful places with God.
Sickness and disease is in this world, but it does not have to be in us. We are redeemed, released, brought out of that realm with the blood of Jesus. He has purchased us. Now the Holy Spirit lives in us, with the divine health of God.
