Health Food Devotional Keep Your Body Under September 9, 2014 “ But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. (1 Cor. 9:27)” Notice that this scripture says, I keep under my body. If your body were the real you, Paul would have said, I keep myself under. I bring myself into subjection. But he didnt say that. He said, I keep my body under. Well, what did he bring his body into subjection to? His spirit. He didnt let his body dominate him. Rather, his spirit dominated his body. He didnt let his body dictate to his spirit. His spirit dictated to his body. This principle has to do with divine healing. Speak to your body and tell it to obey the Word. Say to your body, The Word says that youre healed now, so quit acting up. Thats keeping your body under. Dont let your body dominate you in any way, shape, form, or fashion. Dont let your body tell you what to do. You tell your body what it can and cant do. And if your spirit is dominating your body and the life of God is in your spirit, that life is going to be flowing into your body. Thats divine healing. Confession: “ I keep my body under. I dont let it dominate me. I dont let it tell me what to do. Instead, I tell my body what to do. I dictate what it can and cant do.” Source: Health Food Devotions by Kenneth E. Hagin.
