Tuesday 18th December 2018 Prayer Devotion
Scripture Reading:- Isaiah 38
Topic:- Dos And Don’t For Divine Health
Text:- Exodus 15:26
Someone said, “divine healing is a gift”. Then, I need to question, “what of divine health”, which one is the best? Divine healing is coming from God with total trust when sick for healing. While divine health is the position of not falling sick at all.
The following seven points, if practiced will give you automatic way to divine health:
1. In Exodus 15:26, it says, “If you diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God.” Note it stated diligently hearken and not hearken alone. That is if you understood what God told you, and not mere listen. Good examples are that of King Saul in I Samuel 15.
2. In that same Exodus 15:26, it stated that, “If you will do that which is right in God’s sight.” Just like the example of King Hezekiah that was sure of his obedience to God. Even in James 4:17, it is a sin for not doing good if you will know what is right.
3. Also, in the same Exodus 15:26, it stated that, “If you will give ear to God’s commandment,” i.e. you love to hear God speaking to you either in Church or through Prophecy or Sermon on Television, tapes, books etc. See David for example in Psalm 26:8; 69:9; 122:1.
4. And in that same Exodus 15:26, it says that, “If you will keep all God’s statues.” While statutes means decree or law and laid down principles for the health of oneself or others e.g. you must not eat heavy food for dinner because of indigestion. See Luke 1:6, 8.
5. Although attack or sickness may come but whenever you are attacked, you attack back by looking on Him, Hebrew 12:2, without any doubt and fear, 2 Timothy 1:7, thereafter the sickness or attack will disappear. See Isaiah 54:17; James 4:7.
6. Always examine yourself on the following three ways:
a. Examine yourself maybe you are still in faith, I Corinthians 11:28; 2 Corinthians 13:5.
b. When feeling uneasy, go for check-up, it is good for your state of health.
c. Always do exercise either in fasting or physical exercise of your body. Unnecessary fat and calories will be reduced in your system. See I Corinthians 10:12.
7. Know what you are eating. Don’t just eat anyhow but eat healthy and balance diet. Even when fasting, be observant of fruits and vegetables. You should be assured that as you grow, your body will be rejecting some food or even reacting against some food. It is not quantity food you need bur nourishing one. Be clean in your food because cleanliness is next to Godliness.
I want to assure you as you observe all these, you are on your way to divine health. And healing is assured.
Prayer Points:-
1. Oh God, I want to enjoy Your divine health, help me henceforth, in the name of Jesus Christ.
2. Whatever sickness that I am battling with, by Your stripes, I am heal henceforth, in the name of Jesus Christ.
3. I claim it, divine healing is for me, I enjoy it to maximum henceforth, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Have a Lovely Tuesday!
