So, youโre a Christian, you believe in God, and youโre doing your best to live right, but it still seems as though things are off. Youโve heard that God is a healer who desires that His people are healthy and well, but you canโt figure out what youโre โdoing wrongโ or why that promise hasnโt manifested for youโฆ Well, you might not actually be doing anything wrong, but this weekโs topic will be an introduction to some and a reminder to others that the spiritual realm is even more real and important than the natural, because pretty much anything that manifests in the natural is first made manifest in the spirit realm.
What many people donโt know is that most, if not all illnesses and dis-eases have spiritual implications, so in order to step into our full God-given authority in the area of our health and wellness, we need the knowledge of biblical laws and principles in order to obtain and maintain Godโs promises in this area of our lives (and really, in all areas).
If this is your first time hearing this, or if youโve heard this but still donโt know what that really means for you, check out this weekโs video for a foundational understanding of the spirit realm, how it works, and how to be prepared for what is called โspiritual warfare.โ
Stay ready so you ainโt gotta get ready! ๐๐พ
