If you’ve been around some good teaching about healing, you’ve likely heard 1 Peter 2:24 quoted. It says that by Jesus’ stripes you “were” healed (past tense). This is a powerful truth, but I don’t believe most people understand what it means to have been healed in the past, even when their body is still sick or hurting.

In our last part, we showed that Jesus delivered us from everything we could be afraid of. Therefore, if we are still afraid, we are only afraid because of what we’re not seeing of Jesus’ provision. That is a universal truth that applies to every person, in every situation. You are not the exception. People only fear because of what they’re not seeing about Jesus. That is the only source (Isaiah 26:3).

“Wait on the Lord.” Some people love the term. Some people don’t. Either way, the term is usually misunderstood.

People often believe that if a Christian sins, that leaves them susceptible to the Devil, to bring trouble or sickness into your life. While I don’t agree with sin, if that is true, none of us have any surety of protection.

We’ve spoken a lot about how Jesus makes us righteous, blameless, and free from guilt (Colossians 1:22). I would encourage you to get a thorough training in those truths. But sometimes, even when you know these things, if you do something wrong, you still have a nagging negative emotion. What is that?

Apart from Jesus, how does a human body get tired? By doing hard things over and over again. How does a human soul get tired? By looking at hard things over and over again. How do you strengthen a tired soul? By looking at lovely, easy things in Jesus.

Sometimes, when people picture having a “Jesus-conversation” with someone else, they think it needs to look like a Bible study or traditional witnessing. Actually, you could be talking about any given subject with someone and still be talking about Jesus.

Many times, believers look at things they’ve done in their life and think they’ve messed everything up. Or they look at some hardship they’ve experienced and feel they’ll never recover. Or they may have gotten off track and feel like everyone has left them behind, forgotten. The truth is, if you’ll take the gospel and believe it, you can thrive no matter what has happened.

Sometimes, even though we know that we should be meditating on Jesus, our minds can get caught up, chasing after the so-called “good things” of this life. Whether that’s wealth, our job, other people, or any earthly pleasure. These things can be temptations to draw our mind from the Lord, but here’s the answer to keep you from getting caught up in the world.

God is not asking us for any payment for the things He’s given, but when things hinder our knowledge of Jesus, those are things we should certainly let go of — not as if we’re offering it to God, but for our own sake. Trust me, when you give something up to know Jesus more, you’re not making a sacrifice. You’re letting go of the things that make you poor, for a Wisdom that wants to make you rich.

Many years ago, I started learning about how forgiven and righteous I was through Jesus. It was an amazing revelation. I finally felt clean and presentable before the Lord. Whenever I did something wrong, I would remember how righteous the Lord had made me. While that was an unspeakable consolation to me, something was missing, and I didn’t know what it was.

If you were to read Romans 5-7 (and a bit of chapter 8) you would find words like “reign, slave, dominion, captivity, and law (as in a governing authority).” There are a lot of words describing a slave/master relationship. That’s because, before we knew Jesus, we were slaves to sin and death. Those were the two things that came through Adam. Likewise, we now have a new slavery to righteousness and life – the opposite of what Adam enslaved us to. Romans 5 calls it “righteousness and grace.”
