Rom 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Rom 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
It should be understood that the law of the Spirit of life that makes one free from condemnation and from the law of sin and death, HAS A CONDITION ATTACHED TO IT.
That condition being, those who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Those who walk after the flesh are referred to as, carnally minded, and the carnally minded look to and trust in the carnal or natural things of this world for the things they want.
The spiritually minded keep the word of God in their hearts and before their eyes, and look to God in faith through the promises of His word for the things they want.
It is written, "And the just shall live by faith", but when it comes to not only sickness, but many other things in life, many walk after the flesh for help, by seeking or looking to the natural and not after or to the Spirit.
Why is that?
Because most have not kept the word of God in their heart.
And when the floods and the storms of life come, and they will come, those who built their house on the sand (the word of doctors, or trusting in medications, treatments, or any person or thing in the natural world), will fall.
But if it is built on the word of God, it will stand. And not only will you weather the storms of life, with the floods, but the word you kept will bare fruit. And if it was for healing, then after the will of God is accomplished, you or your loved one will be healed.
If one doesn't have the faith for healing or whatever it might be for God to do for that person, then they are subject to the limits of what the natural can provide. And if that is what is necessary for that person to find relief or to survive, then that person should seek and pursue the natural, but should still do so in faith. To most, that is a blessing of God. And it is, because most don't live by the faith of God.
Heb 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man drawback, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
It is written, the only way to please God is through faith. Yet if we shrink back in fear from declaring the word of God in faith, or in confident assurance that what the word of God says shall come to pass, in the face of the situation, regardless of what it may be, we are no longer walking after the Spirit, but after the flesh.
The words, draw back, mean to, shrink back in fear.
In many places around the world, declaring one's salvation does not present any threat to that person's life. No need for fear there. But what if we were to declare our healing publicly, according to the word of God, before we had any physical manifestation, and the public knew it?
Would that cause you to shrink back in fear?
Wouldn't you fear being made a fool of?
Well, what if God doesn't do anything.
Oh, the shame of it.
Isn't that what many would think? At least, that is what those who don't live by faith might think.
In most cases, sickness and disease are a result of the curse of the law of sin.
If you were not condemned, in most cases, no sickness or disease should come on you.
For it is written, Pro 26:2 As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.
There are of course exceptions.
One being for the word's sake, which would be for the purpose of causing you to fall away from believing the word of God. One of those things the word of God deals with is about our healing through the work of the cross.
The cross not only provided a way for our salvation through faith, but among other things, for our healing and deliverance as well.
For if we are saved by grace through faith, then we are also healed and delivered by grace through this same said faith. For the word saved also means, healed, delivered or protected, preserved, or made whole.
If you had kept the word of God and not fallen away, then you would still believe this.
2 Co 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight)
But those who walk by sight, the testimonies of others, from personal experience or history, or that of others, and look to and live according to the dictates of the natural, are not living or walking in or after the Spirit, nor by faith.
Therefore, I believe most Christians live in condemnation and are not free in Christ Jesus from the curse of the law of sin, because they walk after the flesh and not after the Spirit in many areas in life. In particular, concerning that of healing from sicknesses and diseases.
One last note.
IT IS THE WILL OF GOD FOR YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES TO BE HEALED, HEALTHY, WHOLE, AND PROSPEROUS.
