The Scripture in Mark 16:17-18 is extraordinary; it reveals something striking about you – the Christian. You’re the new creation who is superior to sickness, disease, and infirmities. You have a life that can’t be infected by any disease pathogen. You can’t be poisoned or destroyed. It makes no difference that you were told that a certain poison or virus has gotten into your system; it has no power over you. 

In Luke 10:19, Jesus said, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: AND NOTHING SHALL BY ANY MEANS HURT YOU.” This is either true or false, but thank God it’s true! 

We’re associates of the God-kind; we have the indestructible, uninfectable life of God in us. So, where will the sickness come from? Even if you feel symptoms of sickness, it’s a mirage; shake it off in the Name of Jesus! Walk in divine health and refuse to be sick. 

Live with the consciousness that you’re a partaker of the divine nature. Don’t join the bandwagon of those who are flustered and rattled by the spread of infectious diseases; the life in you is divine; it’s not sustained by blood but by the Spirit of God who lives inside you. “But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you” (Romans 8:11). 

The foregoing verse isn’t a promise but a vital reality. Now that the Holy Spirit lives in you, He’s the life of your physical body. Maybe you’ve even been diagnosed with an incurable disease as you read this; declare the Word that the divine life in you gains ascendancy. 

With faith in your heart, keep affirming, “The same Spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead lives in me and has invigorated my physical body. I have the life of God in me; that life destroys sickness and disease. I walk in divine health. I refuse to be sick!” 

Christians are people who have come from death. They’re a different breed. That’s why the Bible says, “But ye are a chosen generation…” (1 Peter 2:9). The word ‘generation’ is the same as ‘breed’. You’re a special breed, superior to anything that’s of the devil. 

Take charge of your life from the realm of the spirit and subdue your world and your environment. Even now, declare that you live victoriously through the Word, and by the Spirit, over and above sickness, disease, and death.
