It is imperative to the well being of any and all that we balance the impending judgments with the promises of the Lord to His own. When His requirement are met, there is promised deliverance. ìNone of these diseasesî will effect those who are His. But, there are requirements which must be met. Namely, diligently respond to the Word of the Lord. Live according to His Word. Be willing to hear and obey His Word. Ex. 15:26 In the case of the Israelites who were in captivity in Egypt He revealed Himself as Jehovah-raphah, the healing, curing Lord. In one night, by partaking of the Passover Lamb, there was a wave of healing virtue which came upon the captives in Egypt until when they left, there was not to be found one sick or emaciated person among them. The Lord had revealed Himself by His name to them and they were all well and strong. Ps. 105:37
Those who believe and obey the Word of the Lord have a great assurance and potential for a joyous and happy life in the Lord. Not only is He the Lord who heals but He is the Lord who keeps diseases and illnesses away from those who serve Him. Ex. 23:25 His work is complete and absolute. Has He forgiven ALL our sins? Then with the same breath He said He would heal from ALL our diseases. Ps. 103:3 The Apostolic method still works. Call for prayer by the elders of the church. Be anointed with oil in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, believe and there is deliverance, not only from sicknesses but and if necessary, from sin. Confess your faults pray fervently and enjoy the results. James 5:14-16
The pestilence, the plague, sickness and disease are predicted under the opening of the fourth seal. Rev. 6:7 That the seal and its subsequent display of various kinds of illnesses, old and new, is in effect is apparent. We live in a sick society, sick in more ways than one. We have seen new diseases crop up and when a cure is found, there is another which takes its place as the latest pandemic. This pale horse, is rightly named Death and Hell, for it not only embraces death by disease, but every and any event causing death other than old age. Rev. 6:8 Most unfortunately, sudden, unexpected death can leave a person without an opportunity to repent before the Lord and assure themselves of eternal life as it is found in Him. Whatever disease breaks out anywhere in the world is soon transported around the world, due to our modern day ability to fly from continent to continent in just a few brief hours. There is a refuge, a shelter where the mercy and the grace of the Lord surrounds one and keeps believers from danger and harm. Ps. 91:1-10.
