“…and the inhabitants (of Zion) will not say, “I am sick…” Isaiah 33:24 (NKJV)

When you accept Jesus as the Lord of your life, you come into a kingdom called Zion, which is the city of the living God. As Christians, we live there now. This kingdom is as real as the present world that you can see. It has principles, a language, and other regulations that govern the kingdom. One of them is that in this kingdom, we do not get sick and we do not say “I am sick”. The reason is that in this kingdom, we have received eternal life, and eternal life cannot be afflicted.

So no matter what happens to your health, you do not say that you are sick because having to say you are sick means you have agreed that you are actually sick. God wants you to take a stand on His word and live in the consciousness of what He has made available to you. Instead of you saying, “ I am sick, just go ahead and use this same strength to say, I am healed. When you say, “I am healed”, you are agreeing with God and saying to the symptoms, I do not agree with you. I know this might look like a joke, but the truth is that your affirmations matter a lot, and when you become conscious of it and affirm your beliefs consciously, you will activate spiritual laws that release power for change. However, when you do the opposite, you activate spiritual laws that release destruction.

So, I encourage you today to become conscious of this very transaction of the mouth because you belong to a kingdom, and in this kingdom, there is a place where God expects us to speak. In Isaiah 33:24, from the New International Version, the Bible says, “…no one living in Zion will say, “ I am ill”, and the sins of those who dwell there will be forgiven…”. Did you see that? We will talk more about this in tomorrow’s article, but Take this seriously and speak the language of the kingdom. Praise God!

Today’s Rhema

When you affirm or declare your beliefs, you activate spiritual laws that release power for change!

Confession for the Day 

Glorious and ever living Father, I am grateful for opening my eyes to this wonderful truth. I refuse to agree with the devil or symptoms at any time. I choose to agree with what God has said regarding my health. I have the life of God in me, and therefore, I live in divine health now and all the days of my life in the name of Jesus. Amen!
