Remission of Sickness Part 2

Remission of Sickness Part 2

In the previous part, I shared about the biblical understanding on the remission of sins. And just as God has remitted your sins, 𝐇𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐭 (Azazel) 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲. It is entirely removed and it shall not return like what the doctors claim. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬!

In the past, after eating very spicy stuff, I would experience loose stools on the following day. It had been so normal that I was used to it. I wasn't really bothered by it, because I love spicy food, and I thought that the after-effect is normal. What you tolerate will dominate you. You can only dominate what you don't tolerate.

However, not long ago, I somehow spoke to my stomach, "In Jesus' name, you shall never have loose stools after eating spicy food again." 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐭𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐭.

Recently, I ate really spicy Mala crawfish (the whole bowl on my own). On the next day, my stool was normal. I didn't even realise it. On subsequent times after eating very spicy stuff, my stools were still normal!

It wasn't until last morning that I realised that I was free from the effects of eating spicy food! So I pondered on the whole thing and felt the Spirit of God highlighting a word at the back of my mind, "𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧."

Then I realised the whole deal on the 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧! When God forgave our sins, He cast them into the depth of the sea (Micah 7:9). He remembers them NO MORE (Jer 31:34). Technically, 𝐇𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 intentionally. There is a song called, "The Sea Of Forgetfulness".

What God did for our sins, He did for our sicknesses (Isa 53; Ps 103). While His blood remitted our sins, His body removed our sicknesses.

When Jesus cried on the Cross, "It Is Finished!", God 'forgot' our sins, and because our sins are 'forgotten', our sicknesses (which is a form of death that came through sin, Rom 5:12) were also 'forgotten'.

Since there is no more consciousness of sins (which is evil conscience, Heb 10:2-3, 22) because our sins have been 'forgotten', 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬, because they have been 'forgotten'.

The principle of 'forgotten' lies in understanding remission. It is simple but not easy, because when you can see and feel your symptoms, you still need to choose to forget the sickness, because Jesus has already dealt with it by His stripes.

Just as how you believe that your sins are remitted, believe that your sicknesses are remitted.
