THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Part 43.

Matthew 8:16-17 (KJV) When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: 17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
Isaiah 53:4-5 (KJV) Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Psalm 107:20; 1Peter 2:24; 5:8-9; John 10:10; Acts 10:38; Romans 8:1-2; Galatians 3:13-14; 2Corinthians 5:21; James 4:7; 5:14-15; Mark 16:17-18; Ephesians 4:27;

Today we continue our study series titled THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS to enable us to walk in the fullness of the resurrection power.

51. Sickness is a curse. The curse of the law of sin and death is sickness, poverty and untimely death. When man sinned God pronounced a curse on man and all creation on earth. A curse is a spiritual power called to enforce failure, poverty, death and destruction. It is the direct opposite of blessing. No sickness comes to bless you or teach you a lesson. Every sickness no matter how small wants you dead. Never under estimate any sickness no matter how common and no matter how often it comes and goes. It is in a gradual and subtle mission to steal, kill and destroy you. Treat every sickness as a curse, reject it, resist it, rebuke it because by the power of resurrection of Jesus bible says in Galatians 3:13-14 (KJV) Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

By His death Jesus became curse for us and by His resurrection Jesus has poured out divine blessings upon us all. Therefore whenever sickness comes begin to confess and speak blessings of the blood and the resurrection of Jesus over your life. Everything is bound to respond to what you say consistently over a period of time. Thank God we have been redeemed from every curse in Christ Jesus through His resurrection from the kingdom of the dead. The kingdom of the dead is the kingdom of the cursed, darkness, sin, sickness, diseases, poverty and death.

By the resurrection of Jesus we have been raised from the curse of the kingdom of darkness to the blessings of the kingdom of heaven. Every Christian now carries heavenly blessings which are far above all earthly challenges. A curse can only be removed or reversed by a blessing. As curses are spoken in order to take effect so also you must speak blessings upon your life for it to take effect. Don't wait for a man of God or anyone to do it for you. In Luke 10:19 we trample upon snakes and scorpions and all the powers of the enemy not with our feet but with our mouth speaking blessings over every curse in our lives and family. You are a new creature in Christ so even generational curse or sickness has no power over you. But it will not work automatically you have to enforce it in your life and family by speaking blessings over you and your family. Genesis 3:14-19; 12:2-4; 49:1-28; 2Kings 5:25-27; James 4:7; 5:14-15; 1Peter 5:8-9; Mark 11:23; 16:17-18; Ephesians 1:3; 1John 4:4;

The bottom line of all what we are saying is that God wants you to begin to see yourself in the eyes and light of all that the resurrection of Jesus has done for you and has made you. And no more in your fleshly natural sin nature so that you can begin to enjoy the fullness of the blessings of the mystery of the resurrection power which includes eternal life and freedom from sin, sickness, diseases, poverty, demonic oppression, fear, doubts, anxieties and death.

If you need healing the bible says In Matthew 8:17 that Jesus Himself took all our sicknesses and diseases. Therefore you can receive your healing now by faith in the name of Jesus. Just lay your hand on the affected area of your body and say this prayer. Father God in the name of Jesus I believe that Jesus died for my healing. I believe He took all my sickness and diseases on the cross. If He took them, then I cannot have them. Therefore I resist and I reject every sickness in my body and I confess Jesus today as my healer and I receive my healing now. Thank you Jesus that I am healed. 1Peter 2:24; Ps 107:20.
Now begin to do what you couldn't do before because of the sickness. You are healed in Jesus name.

Jesus is coming very soon. Are you ready? Heaven is real, hell is real. The time is very short. Choose Jesus today.
You can become a born again child of God today. The bible says If you shalt confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead, you shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9-10; John 1:12.

Say this prayer: O God have mercy on me. I come to you today in the name of Jesus. I believe in my heart that Jesus is the Son of God. I believe that He died for me. I believe that you raised Him from the dead for my salvation. I accept Jesus in my heart today and I confess Him today as my Lord and Saviour. Thank you Father that today I am saved In Jesus name.

If you prayed this prayer of Salvation, please go to a nearby bible believing Church in your area, so you can grow in the grace of our Lord Jesus.

Grace be with you.
