Communion isn't just a ritual, when we take
it, we are taking part of the life of Jesus, His
death and His benefits. In Him there is both
spiritual and physical life. . .
"it is made manifest in our mortal flesh"
2 Corinthians 4:11

Again, we are not to forget all His benefits,
He forgives all of our iniquities (sins);
and heals all of our diseases, (Psalms 103:3)

Nature or the physical body always does it's
natural work in restoring or healing itself.
We have been made that way.

Some sicknesses or diseases the body cannot
repair on it's own. So when we go to a doctor
for help; they can only aid in the natural work
or do a temporary fix, manage or control them.
They acknowledge that they are unable to do the
healing process, which can only come from God.

We can receive our physical salvation the same
way we received our spiritual salvation, through
faith in Jesus' work on the cross.

Disease is a physical penalty because of sin;
but Jesus took that penalty in His body for
us by the "stripes" or lashes or beating He
received before He went to the cross.

Because He has taken them for us, then we
do not have to "bare" them or keep them in
our bodies. If we keep them, then He bore
them for nothing.

Disease is a part of the curse.

"Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of
the law, being made a curse for us: for it is
written, Cursed is everyone that hangeth on
a tree:"
Galatians 3:13

Only God's power through Jesus can remove
the curse which is disease.

" By one man sin entered into the world,
and death by sin." Romans 5:12
So we know that death entered into the
world because of Adam's sin.

We also know that disease (a form of death)
has entered into the world because of sin.
The only way out of disease in through the
works of Jesus Christ. God's power is the only
power that can destroy the works of the devil.

After planting God's Word, His seeds, in our
hearts and minds, we have to believe they
are growing even before we see them grow
and produce.

This is faith which is "the evidence of things
not seen." Seeing only what God says will
produce faith. No one ever looks in vain to
the Great Physician.

His Words of healing can be trusted when we
get them into our hearts and trust Him to
bring them to pass!

Where are we looking? Symptoms can be
powerful, calling for our attention.

But if we can make ourselves look at the
Word of God which can over power all the
symptoms and give us the healing we are
wanting.

All heaven is behind His Words! He healeth
all thy diseases!

When our eyes are upon our symptoms and
our minds are being occupied with them more
than with God's Word, we have the wrong seeds
in our hearts. We have seeds of doubt.

Our symptoms may point to death, but God's
Word points to life. We have to look at one or
the other; we cannot look at both at the same
time.

It is the one that we look at continuously that
we will manifest in our lives.

Our faith becomes stronger when we are
looking at the promises of God and not at
something else.

The word can only work when it is kept in
our hearts and minds. This does not mean
occasionally but continually throughout
the day.

His word is the "imperishable seed" that
can "effectually work in us" when it is kept
"in the midst of our hearts."

In Proverbs we see the way of getting
results from the promises in God's Word:

"Incline thine ears unto my sayings."
We must constantly listen to it.

"Let them not depart from thine eyes."
We must constantly be looking at it.

"Keep them in the midst of thine heart."
There must be a constant reverant heart.

In the Psalms, David said, "Thy Word hath
quickened me." Paul tells us that it is the Word
which effectually worketh in them that believe.

Every Word of God is 'spirit and life' and will
work in us when we receive and 'attend' to it.

When we receive and obey the Word of God, we
can say with Paul, "The power of God worketh
in me mightily." The Word of God becomes the
Power of God. It is spirit and life.

God tells us exactly how to "attend" to His
Words.

He says, "Let them not depart from thine
eyes, keep them in the midst of thine heart."

Instead of looking at the symptoms or the
problems, we are to be looking at His Words,
continuously. The word will only work if it
is kept "in the midst of our hearts."

Many have failed by not doing this.
