Oh To Be Wise Meditations
Healing and obedience. Then he said, "I am the LORD your God, and I cure your diseases. If you obey me by doing right and by following my laws and teachings, I won't punish you with the diseases I sent on the Egyptians." Ex. 15:26. There is an amazing connection between healing and obedience. Now I am not saying a health and wealth Gospel, but there is something to walking in obedience receiving health. Even sin within our hearts like jealousy and envy rots the bones. But a cheerful heart is like medicine to the bones. To obey God and live for Jesus there is blessing in it. A lot of the world's suffering comes from disobeying Gods word and ways. That doesn't mean the Christian will never get sick or have a disease. But God has way of righteous that avoids much folly and sin. If we please God, he will make us wise, understanding, and happy. But if we sin, God will make us struggle for a living, then he will give all we own to someone who pleases him. There are consequences to sin and there blessing to righteousness. Live in light and his healing love will cover you. For who knows what the darkness will bring upon you like a thief in the night.
Study Jer. 17:14
