“I
am the Lord that healeth thee.” Ex 15:26
INSTRUMENT
RATED (9)
Instrument
rated for sickness. Many a healthy person has been cut down
in the prime of life by cancer, heart attack, stroke, or some other
debilitating disease. But there’s a way to be ready for this storm, a way not
paved with fear, a way so prepared you that you can hear the diagnosis of your
doctor and still have a sense of God’s peace in your heart. You know what your
instrument panel, the Bible, says about it. You know what to do, how to act,
and what to say. You’ve been prepared for this moment. Now, if a pilot hasn’t
faithfully maintained his aircraft, then it will go down in the storm no matter
what his instrument panel tells him. So if you have taken good care of your
body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit, then you can go to God with
confidence, standing on His Word and asking Him to heal you. Eventually we will
die of something, but you don’t have to die before your time. God has promised
us “long life” (Ps 91:16) The Bible says, “He…healed all who were sick, that it
might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying ‘He Himself
took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses” (Mt 8:16-17 NKJV). You say, “I
know some good Christians who prayed for healing, and didn’t get it.” That’s
true. “Will explain later!” But as long as you’re living you must stand on the
Word of God, which says, “I am the Lord that healeth thee.”
