The Spirit In You And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness (Romans 8:10). In the verse above, the Apostle Paul wasn’t questioning whether Christ was in the brethren in Rome; rather, he stirred their minds to an important reality: He wanted them to know that the Healer lived within them. He said if Christ (the Healer) is in you, though your body may be weak and sickly, He’ll vitalize it; therefore, refuse to be sick. Paul’s conclusion, upon meditating on our transcendent life in Christ, is that when you have the Holy Spirit, you shouldn’t be sick, because your body is vitalized by the same Spirit. "Now if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken (vitalize, make alive) your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you" (Romans 8:11). The work of the Holy Spirit in vitalizing your physical body is in the "now"; it’s not something that’ll happen when we get to Heaven; He’s working in you now! Glory to God! The Spirit that lives in you is where the power is: His presence in you has settled the matter of sickness and weakness forever, for He "perambulates" in you, to "fix" any anomalies in your physical body. If sickness "attacks" your body, you have nothing to fear or worry about; the Holy Spirit—the Healer—lives in you! His life in you makes you unconquerable. He’s the One who made Jesus the Healer, and had enough power to raise Him back to life; and now, He lives in you. Perhaps, you’ve been a Christian, and your physical body has been so ravaged, messed up, destroyed, or battered by sickness or disease; what you need is the consciousness of the indwelling Healer—the Spirit of God in you. Christ in you, is your hope of healing and health. Halleluiah. Confession The Holy Spirit—the Healer—lives in me, therefore, I’m not susceptible to infirmity. The life of God in me makes every fibre of my being: my cells, tissues, organs, and systems, impregnable to disease and sickness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. 1 John 5:11-12; 1 Peter 2:24; Luke 10:19
