Rhapsody of Realities TeeVo Devotional 2nd July – We’ve Gone Past Healing!

(Your Whole Being Is Infused With The Very Life of God)

TO THE BIBLE: 1 Peter 2:24
“Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.”

LET’S TALK
“What’s up Jay? I’ve been looking for you all day; where did you go?” John asked his best friend, Jayden.

“Oh sorry, I took some time out to fast and pray,” Jayden answered. “I needed to square up my covenant with God.”

“Wait a minute, what covenant is that?” John asked in mock surprise.
“My covenant of healing of course, according to Exodus 23:25,” Jayden replied.

“But that was for the Old Testament folks, dude!” John pointed out. “In Christ, we don’t have a “covenant of healing.” We’ve gone past healing! We’ve got something even better now—the very life of God flowing through our veins!”

Every Christian has to understand this: God never made a covenant of healing with the new creation in Christ. In the Old Testament, God made provisions for the children of Israel, but those provisions and messages don’t apply to the Church. The covenant of healing was for Israel. When Jesus said on the Cross, “It is finished” (John 19:30), that was the end of the Old Covenant. It’s important to understand who the Christian really is.

The Christian is one with the God-life, a life that doesn’t require healing because it doesn’t get sick. “So, why are many sick then?” you ask. One answer: ignorance! God said, “My people are destroyed for their lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6).

The Bible says, “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you” (Romans 8:11). The Holy Spirit, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you and has vitalised your mortal body. That means your body isn’t death-doomed or sickness-prone anymore. Hallelujah!

When you become a Christian and receive the Holy Spirit, you should never again be sick in your life! What you need to maintain is the consciousness of the divine life inside you now and the fact that the Holy Spirit perambulates in you to ward off every anomaly, and keep you in perfect health.

Speak:
The same Spirit that raised up Christ from the dead has vitalised my body. Sickness has no place in me because the life of God permeates me through and through. I live in divine health and impact my world with the God-life in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
