Scriptures For Faith, Deliverance, And Healing預覽

Healing and Deliverance Are Your Covenant Rights

Then the angel of the Lord called to Abraham out of heaven a second time, and said, “By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son, I will indeed bless you and I will indeed multiply your descendants as the stars of the heavens and as the sand that is on the seashore. Your descendants will possess the gate of their enemies. Through your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.” 

—Genesis 22:15–18, mev

The whole theme of Scripture is about God’s covenant with man to rescue, restore, heal, and deliver them, even while they have historically and consistently broken their end of the deal. God remains faithful; man is unfaithful. God keeps covenants; man breaks covenants. Healing and deliverance come to those who are in covenant with God—the ones who remain faithful. 

If it weren’t for the mercy of God, every covenant violation that we commit today would cause us to be destroyed. Our actions outside of God’s plans for our lives put us in violation of the covenant and open us up to all kinds of evil and torment from the enemy. But God has created a way for us to be delivered out of all our troubles, then healed and restored to a place of authority in Him.

It is through Jesus that we now are also the seed of Abraham. We have been grafted in, and because of this covenant we experience the mercy of God. When we see God acting on behalf of the people of Israel and then we see Jesus healing all those who were sick and casting out demons from those who were oppressed by the devil, we can see these as acts of God’s covenant of mercy.
