Healed in Jesus' Name - Part Two

Do not claim the sickness or sicknesses which attack your body. Do not say “my disease, disorder, illness”; that is a proprietary phrase claiming ownership over. We are sick, but we do not have sickness: sickness is attacking us. And what do we do when we are attacked? We fight back!
I have been fighting back using worship, praise, thanksgiving, Scripture and prayer. There is no right order for using these weapons to fight against that which would destroy our bodies, our minds and our spirits.
Yes, we may occasionally forget and say “my” but we can correct ourselves by asking The Holy Spirit to remind us. Being the good friend He is, He will. He does.
I am healed in Jesus’ Name. The Name which is above all names. ALL names. Names of diseases. Names of sicknesses. Names of disorders. Above the names of mental disease or mental defect. It is the Name Above All Names which heals those who want to be healed.
I choose Jesus. JEHOVAH-ROPHE = THE LORD MY HEALER.
Did you know that the color yellow in the Bible is the color for healing? Think of when you bang your shin on the coffee table and this magnificent bruise begins to form. First it is a darkish purple, almost black. Then blue and red. Then yellow. Yellow is the last color of the bruise to be visible on our bodies. And then the bruise is gone.
Isaiah 53:5 tells us that JESUS was bruised for our iniquities. John 19:1 JESUS was scourged, or flogged, if you will. In verse 2, a crown of thorns was put on his head. In verse 3 the soldiers beat him with their hands. You think his body was bruised from that? Mark 15:16-20 describes the mock worship and beating he received at the hands of the soldiers. Not just a few, either. A whole band, the Word says; the group of soldiers assigned to the military governor.
Beaten, bruised, flogged, crucified. That’s my Jesus. He was crushed in spirit and body. The sins of the world weighed heavily upon him. He who had done no wrong would now be punished for the wrongs of the world. From Eve’s sin to the sins of this generation and the next, Jesus would die. His blood is on me.
That whipping He received in the Pretorium (courtyard) that day healed me. Isaiah 53:5 With his stripes we are healed. I believe that Jesus Christ is God’s only begotten Son. I believe that I am healed in His Name.
Bless that wonderful Name of Jesus !
