Even as I am writing these words, I’m sure many of you are thinking of great Christians that you know that have suffered through all kinds of sicknesses and maybe even died. We don’t have every answer, but what is good to remember is that Jesus came to give abundant life, and it is the devil who comes to kill, steal and destroy. (John 10:10) We do live on an earth that has a curse, but praise God for the wisdom of godly doctors who practice medicine – it is proof that God will continue going to great lengths to have the body of Christ healthy. God made the biggest sacrifice and went to the greatest length of all with His son dying on the cross so we could have life in Him. Although the work was completed, there are still many who the devil inflicts with disease. That is the devil’s M.O. (method of operation), and he doesn’t give up just because we are nice, godly people. In fact, he often picks on us harder because he knows he will get many to believe that it is God’s will to be sick. With that kind of confusion going on in the body of Christ, the devil has a hay day. The saddest part of that whole scenario is that people often believe it and consequently lose heart because God is made out to be the bad guy, and the giver of sickness and disease. Jesus’ desire really is to have it be on earth as it is in heaven as He taught us to pray in the Lord’s Prayer. Heaven is disease free, and for Christians, the earth should be disease free as well.
