Make the decision to live in divine health in the same way that you make the decision to accept Jesus as Savior. Decide to be well!

Just as salvation is being offered to whosoever will, healing is being offered to whosoever will.

The Greek word sozo, translated "saved" in Romans 10:9, is the same Greek word translated "healed" in the Gospels.

In Mark 5:23, Jairus said to Jesus, "I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed (sozo); and she shall live." To the woman with the issue of blood Jesus said, "Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole (sozo)" (Matt.9:22).

When Jesus was raised from the dead, He purchased soundness for your spirit, soul and body. You have been made whole.

Right now by faith confess Jesus as your Healer in the same way that you made Him Lord over your life. Make Jesus Lord over your body according to Romans 10:10:

According to the Word of God, I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord. I confess Him now as my Healer. I make Him Lord over my body. I believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. From this moment, my body is saved, healed, made whole, and delivered.

Resist the temptation to be sick just as you resist the temptation to sin. That may sound too simple, but it works because the Word says, "Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" (James 4:7).

Satan is the source of sickness. When Satan attempts to put sickness on your body, refuse it in the name of Jesus.

It is against the will of God for you to be sick.

As soon as you have the slightest inclination that Satan is tempting you with sickness, turn to 1 Peter 2:24 and read it aloud. Receive it in faith and thank God that by His stripes you were healed.

You have an opportunity to stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free. With His name, His Word, His Spirit and Jesus as your Healer, you can enjoy divine health.
