Corona Who? Part 4 – Taking God’s Medicine

Exif JPEG(Ver 1.1) This is Part 4 in the Bible Study series about the current world crisis called “Coronavirus” or “COVID-19”.  If you would like to read the entire series, please go to “Part 1“.  This is a situation that has been occurring like no other that I have ever seen.  We have governments in over 150 nations placing people into quarantine to stop it from spreading.  This has caused great fear and panic in many people.  To a Christian we should not fear death.  We learn from reading Hebrews 2:15 that unsaved people are in the bondage of this fear.  I believe this is because of the uncertainly of what happens to them after they die. If anyone is not saved, I can tell you plainly the Bible says your fear is justified.

But that is not my subject today.  The LORD wanted me to put this out a few days ago and I pray I’m not too late to help someone going through what the enemy Satan is trying to do in all our lives.  The Bible declares God’s Word to be the source of LIFE ETERNAL (Salvation).  But also in the same redemptive work of Jesus, He gives to us healing and health.  Throughout the Bible this TRUTH is communicated.  We are required to take HIS Word like we would take a pill that the doctor gave to us.  If you went to a doctor and he recommended a pill that he thought would help you get better, what would you do?  I personally would pray over the matter with God and if I had peace, I would take the medicine.

The Bible says God’s Word is HIS medicine for our spirit, soul and body.  The Hebrew word H7965 is transliterated as “SHALOM” and is often translated as “peace”.  However, this word is ALL-INCLUSIVE, and it means peace, safety, health, welfare, prosperity and even happiness. A very similar Greek N.T. word is G4982 “SOZO” and it is often translated as “saved” or “made whole”.  This Greek word again is “ALL-INCLUSIVE”.  N.T. salvation includes our spirit, soul and body.  This should help us to understand why the WORD of GOD is so important.  This should also help to encourage us to read the WORD of GOD about our situations that we are facing “out loud” every day and even multiple times a day when fear tries to overcome us.

Remember God told Joshua in Joshua 1:8, “This book of the law shall not depart from out of your mouth, but you shall mediate therein day and night.  Then you observe to do it according to all that is written therein.  For then you shall make your way prosperous and then you will have good success”.  Wow, what a concept!  The Hebrew word translated as “meditate” literally means “to mutter” continually.  What God is saying when My Word gets into your heart to change your thinking, believing, speaking and actions you cannot be defeated by your enemy.

I have been taking God’s medicine daily ever since this evil suddenly came to light.  I regret not doing this as faithfully before it came.  I trust with the LORD’s help I will do a better job in the future not to let this habit slip. I believe this was just God’s way of waking me up.  Therefore, please join with me if you believe the Power of the Word of God and take God’s medicine with me daily up to 3 times a time or more.  If a doctor gives you a prescription please don’t stop taking that, just add the Greater medicine God’s Word to it.  Here are just a few of God’s medicine verses that I believe the LORD wanted me to say out loud daily.  I changed the words in the verses to make them personal to me.  I like to take make the Bible a personal love letter to me from God.  This is the way I believe God intended and designed it to be.

 

GOD’S MEDICINE – TAKE 3 TIMES A DAY

 

We will begin with Galatians 3:13 a very important verse of truth for every Christian:

Gal 3:13  Christ has redeemed ME from the curse of the law, being made a curse for ME: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:

(What was the curse of the law?  We can find that answer in Deuteronomy 28:15-68.  But the verse 61 is the key to fighting and taking a stand against the coronavirus:)

Deu 28:61  Also every sickness (diabetes, heart disease, cancer, etc), and every plague (Coronavirus, etc.), which is NOT written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon those that are disobedient, until they be destroyed. 

Isa 53:4  Surely he hath borne MY griefs (Sickness & Disease), and carried MY sorrows (Pain): yet we did esteem HIM stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
Isa 53:5 But HE was wounded for MY transgressions, he was bruised for MY iniquities: the chastisement of MY peace was upon HIM; and with HIS stripes I am healed.

Mat 8:17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isiah the prophet, saying, Himself took MY infirmities, and bare MY sicknesses.

1Pe 2:24 Who HIS own self bare MY sins in HIS own body on the tree, that I, being dead to sins, will live unto righteousness: by whose stripes I was healed.

Psa 107:20 He sent HIS word, and healed ME, and delivered ME from MY destructions.

Exo 15:26  And said, If I will diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD MY God, and wilt do that which is right in HIS sight, and will give ear to HIS commandments, and keep all HIS statutes, HE will put none of these diseases upon ME, which HE has brought upon the Egyptians: for HE is the LORD that healeth ME.

Psa 103:2  Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all HIS benefits:
Psa 103:3  Who forgives all MY iniquities; who healeth all MY diseases;

 

Pro 4:20  Because I am His child, I attend to HIS words; I incline MY ears unto HIS sayings.
Pro 4:21  I WILL NOT let them not depart from MY eyes; I will keep them in the midst of MY heart.
Pro 4:22  For they are life unto ME because I find them, and health to all MY flesh.

 

Pro 17:22 A merry heart does good like a medicine: but a broken spirit dries the bones.  (Laugh every day this will help build your immunity against every disease)

 

Exo 23:25 And I WILL serve the LORD MY God, and HE will bless MY bread, and MY water; and HE will take sickness away from the midst of ME.

 

Psa 91:1  Because I dwell in the secret place of the most High I will abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Psa 91:2  I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in HIM will I trust.
Psa 91:3  Surely HE shall deliver ME from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
Psa 91:4  MY GOD shall cover ME with HIS feathers, and under HIS wings shalt I trust: HIS truth shall be MY shield and buckler.
Psa 91:5  I shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Psa 91:6  Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
Psa 91:7  A thousand shall fall at MY side, and ten thousand at MY right hand; but it shall not come near ME.
Psa 91:8  Only with MY eyes shalt I behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Psa 91:9  Because I have made the LORD, MY refuge, even the most High, MY habitation;
Psa 91:10  There shall no evil befall ME, neither shall ANY plague come nigh MY dwelling.
Psa 91:11  For MY GOD shall give HIS angels charge over ME, to keep ME in all thy ways.
Psa 91:12  They shall bear ME up in their hands, lest I dash MY foot against a stone.
Psa 91:13  I shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shall I trample under MY feet.
Psa 91:14  Because I have set my love upon HIM, therefore will HE deliver ME: HE will set ME on high, because I have known HIS name.
Psa 91:15  I shall call upon HIM, and HE will answer ME: HE will be with ME in trouble; HE will deliver ME, and honour ME.
Psa 91:16  With long life will HE satisfy ME, and show me HIS salvation.

 

CONCLUSION

Remember to read and speak God’s medicine daily as many times as you can.  God’s medicine has NO ill side effects.  God’s medicine only produces life spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically.   If you think the conditions are getting worse take it more often.  Command the devil’s symptoms to leave.  Say “No devil you can’t put that on me, I’m redeemed”.

Thank you for reading and studying the Bible with us.  I believe that we in the church are going to come through this with a major victory.  Please join with me and many other Christians this week of Easter to pray and come against this foul satanic enemy called “coronavirus”.  According to Philippians 2:9-10 God informs us that Jesus was given the greatest name in heaven and under heaven on the earth.  So that every other named thing must bow their knee to the name of Jesus!  Therefore we in the church are going to come against this named enemy and command it to bow to the name of Jesus.  According to Luke 10:19, we in the church have been given this authority over our enemy.    But this given authority is useless if not being spoken and exercised.  Everyday from now until Easter I will be commanding the named virus “Corona” to come into obedience to the authority of the Word of God.  I overcome you by the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of my Testimony.  “Bow your knee in Jesus name and be gone from my city, state, & nation, etc.”  Please ask all your Christian friends and relatives to join us in this stand with the Word of God, the Name of Jesus and the Blood of Jesus!  Thank you and God bless you all.  If you have any specific prayer needs or requests, you are welcome to post them for us and every reader to pray with you.  If you have other Bible verses that you love please leave them in a comment.  Thank you!

 

~WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I DIED TODAY?~

Today, if you do not know Jesus Christ as your personal LORD and Savior or you do not have the confidence to KNOW what would happen if you died suddenly it is time to get your life in order.  I believe NOW is time to resolve your uncertain eternal destination after this life ends and before it is too late.  Some might think I’m not a bad person and have not committed any bad crimes, but God says our righteousness is like filthy rags compared to His standard of Holiness.  By default, without making a choice we are all headed to a lake of fire that burns very intensely to be separated from a loving God that already forgave us.  That is a very sad reality.    One wise man has said NO ONE is ready to live, until they are ready to die.  Please go to “Salvation” and read and pray the prayer to receive the free gift of forgiveness & eternal life.  This will be the greatest decision that you will ever make.  Thank you and God bless you.
