A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones. So when your heart is sound, it brings life to your flesh, but if you are still engaged in envy, jealousy, comparing yourself with this and that, it will lead to rottenness of the bones. You may go to doctor, you may take medicine but when that envy is still in your heart, the rottenness of the bones will still be there.
There are things people do that encourages infirmities to raid their lives. I have shared with you before of a friend of mine who went to minister somewhere, the way my friend ministered, he will call those who are sick to come forward, then he will begin to lay hand on them one after another. That very day he took the altar call and people came forward. And he was asking them “what is the problem?” then lay hand, on and on until it got to a slightly old woman like that.
“Mama what is the problem?” The head is heavy, the chest is heavy, the body is heavy, she was confused, she cannot eat very well. My friend wanted to lay hand, the Lord said, “no, don’t lay hand on this woman, but tell her to go and padlock her mouth, and should stop talking anyhow.” And my friend said “mummy, I am not going to pray for you, the Lord said you should just go and control your lips, you will be fine.”
Mama lost her temper “Heeey, see you, it is not your fault, if not this sickness what am I suppose to be doing here, look at him self, look at his ears, his ears is like a flag!” Talking to a preacher like that. My friend did not answer a word, he moved away and pray for the remaining people.
Nevertheless the woman went home and had a good thinking, and she decided, she is going to control herself, control the anger, control the mouth. She only did it for one day; she didn’t abuse anybody, she didn’t shout on anybody, and all her sicknesses vanished.
As I said earlier, there are characters and behaviours that encourages infirmities. A sound heart is the life of the flesh but, envy is the rottenness of the bones. Are you here, you are envious of others, stop it before your bones becomes rotten.
An unsound mind, mind which is not sound will be experiencing troubles, physically and spiritually. If a sound mind is the life of the flesh then, unsound mind will bring trouble to the flesh. When you now add this unsound mind to envy, it will lead to all kind of sickness, bones problems, arthritis, paralysis, skin diseases and cancer. These are the diseases that rotten the bones.
Beloveth, many disorder in the body are rooted in rebellion to God. Many kind of problems that men battles; rebellion and idolatry can be the root of any disease incident. Look at 2 Chronicles 21:14.*
The bible is a complete book if you know what its saying:
Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods: [15] and thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.
So, rebellion and idolatry led to the situation we are describing here. Roots of bitterness, resentment, anger, and envy can affect your kidney, can affect your heart, it can give you infections. Disobedience can lead to heart disturbances and melancholy.
When you get home and start to read Isaiah 3 you find out many of the things we called fashion that we put on can cause trouble. It can cause problem in your hair, inflammation, infections etc. When you are always interested in vanity; this party you are there, that one you are there. You cone to church this way you go outside another way. All these vanity and pride, listen, they can be the root of restlessness, inability to sleep and despair.
Let’s read from the book of Deuteronomy to put this in important perspective, so you will understand the key things we are saying now, about secret of sickness and infirmity. Deuteronomy 28 let first read verse 1
And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth
From verse one the Lord began to list the blessings that will follow obedience to God. As you read on, you see what the Lord will do to those who obey the word of the Lord; when you get to verse 15 but it shall come to past *if thou will not hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God.
Deuteronomy 28:15 KJV
But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee continue reading to verse 35.
What is the scripture telling us? The scripture is telling us that many sicknesses are attached or ascribed to the curse of the law. The curses of the law we are reading here are: pestilence, consumption, tuberculosis, inflammation, astonishment of the heart – which means heart attack, itching, eczema, madness, blindness, usher, boil, piles, consumption – what disrupt the body by separating to parts, it make to waste away or emaciate, fever, inflammation, abnormal rise in temperature, astonishment of mind, depression. It read, no man shall save thee, that is, no cure.
What Are We Suppose To Do?
1. We need to repent and turn from our wicked way.
2. We need to acknowledge our sins, by confessing that we are sinner.
3. We need to ask and receive forgiveness.
4. After we have done the first three – repentance, acknowledgement of sin by confessing our sins, the need to ask for forgiveness. Then we start casting, casting out the spirits behind.
We begin to speak destruction to the fruits of the evil spirits. We begin to issue the curse of God upon them. We begin to anoint with oil. It is not a joke, that the bible say, “is any sick among you, let him call for the elders of the church, let them anoint him with oil.” Then we need to pray warfare prayer.
Therefore, it is now left in your court. If I don’t say stop praying and you stop, you may have made a mistake of stopping when the things is about to be shifted away. And immediately you stop praying, it goes back to where he is trying to leave before.
Close your eyes beloveth, but if you are here and you are not born again, you are not yet surrender your life to Jesus. Repeat this confession after me:
Father, in the name of Jesus, I come before you now, Lord Jesus, come into my life, take control of my life, in Jesus name. Amen!
The warfare prayer have commenced and we aare here to address strangers. And let me tell you the truth; prayer demobilises strangers. The bible say, when the strongman armed he secure his palace, his goods are in intact; but when a stronger man shall come upon him, then he will dispossess him. This prayer is to invite the stronger man to smoke the strangers out of their close places. Don’t joke with these prayers.
(1) Strangers in my body, hear the word of the Lord, come out now, in the name of Jesus.
(2) Wicked power, assigned to increase my disappointment, you are a liar, die in the name of Jesus.
(3) Anything, lodging in my body, that God has not put there, your time is up, die in the name of Jesus.
(4) Lay your right hand upon your head and pray, Strangers in my head, come out now, in the name of Jesus.
(5) Lay your hand upon your chest and pray this prayer: Strangers in my chest, come out now, in the name of Jesus.
(6) Lay your hand upon your stomach and pray this prayer: Arrows fired into my body, backfire, in the name of Jesus.
(7) Powers, assigned to destroy my health, you are a liar, die in the name of Jesus.
(8) Powers, assigned to donate me to the dinning table of darkness, die in the name of Jesus.
God bless you
