Our Heavenly Father's Health Plan – DAY #18: Firm Foundation October 21-Day Devotional
Our Heavenly Father's Health Plan
Lesson by Corey J. Jones, M. Div.
This is a beautiful conditional promise from the Lord to His children. Before the blessing is bestowed there is responsibility and accountability required of the child of God.
A choice and decision must be made to be obedient and do what the Lord requires of us. It is imperative that as Christ followers we do our part. We know that the Lord is always willing and able to do His part, according to His promises.
In this verse there are 3 specific points;
1) Obedience
2) Divine health
3) Healing
I'm going to focus on divine health and healing since I've already touched upon obedience. When the Father said He would put none of the Egyptian diseases upon His children, this can be interpreted as divine health. If you were able to avoid getting sick then healing wouldn't be required. So often we take divine health for granted, until sickness comes upon us. The blessing of being healed of sickness is a promise from our Heavenly Father. There is no shame in being sick, nor does it mean you have sinned, thus bringing sickness to come upon you. According to wisdom we should utilize everything at our disposal for our wellness.
Obviously, we seek the Lord for healing. However, we do ourselves a disservice if we don't make medical science a part of our treatment plan. Miracles happen every day, yet God also works through people. He gave mankind the ability to gain knowledge of the workings of the human body. God wants you to be well, but he also wants to walk in wisdom. Expect our Heavenly Father to be up to something good on your behalf. That includes divine health and healing for your bodies when you become sick. Jesus is Lord!
