Sickness Is Part of the Curse of the Law from Which Christ Has Redeemed Us

whatever the Lord wants to do.” No, you’ve been redeemed from it. Resist it, stand against it,
and say, “No! We don’t have to have this. No! We’re calling a stop to this in the Name of Jesus.
We’ve been made righteous. We’ve been redeemed. The curse has no place in our life. It has no
legal right to work in our life.”
Don’t let this get away from you, friend. Build it into your consciousness. Write down these
verses and read them. Don’t let this be the last time you think about this, especially if you’re
going through something right now. Get it and just eat it, dream it, and think it. Get it in your
spirit.
I was in the northeastern part of the United States a while back, and there was a young couple
there who were parents of two children. They were professionals, and things were going well for
them. Then the young mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer, one of the worst kinds, one of
the quickest-progressing, fastest-growing kinds. In a matter of weeks, she was going through the
treatments, and she was weak—just skin and bones. She was a new Christian.
However, they started going to this church when we were there. They gave her a set of our tapes
on healing, and she just started devouring them. She got serious about it. While she was so weak
sometimes that she couldn’t stand up, she’d go and work in the church. She could paint, so
sometimes she’d paint a little bit and then just lay down. Sometimes she would paint laying
down, listening to those tapes, and feeding on the Word.
When we went back, she was there, standing up—healed, rosy-cheeked, and strong—and she
wanted to shake my hand. She was just so excited. You could tell it was just sparkling all over
her. She was supposed to be dead, but she’s healed. Those children get to keep their mom. That
husband gets to keep his wife. You know that’s the will of God.
Why isn’t this happening more? People don’t believe it, and they don’t take it seriously. If you
think about something else all night and day instead of the Word you’ve heard about healing, it’s
going to outweigh it. You must take this and not just think it’s Brother Keith’s excited deal, but
realize, “This is my life. This is what I believe.” You’ve got to get it in your ears, and in your
eyes, and in your mouth, night and day, and eliminate everything else that’s telling you
differently or pulling you away. I’m telling you, God’s Word is medicine. (Proverbs 4:22) If you
take enough of it long enough, it will heal you from anything. I’ve seen it over and over again.
Nothing is too hard for the Lord.
You can’t just read this and say, “Yes, that’s interesting, that’s good,” and then go back and
think about the symptoms, problems, and other things for the rest of the day and night. It doesn’t
work that way. We already read the directions for taking God’s medicine, didn’t we? Do you
remember? It says in Proverbs 4:20-21, “My son, attend to my words; incline your ear to my
sayings. Let them not depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart.” Does that
sound like an ongoing thing? It is. How would you know if it’s working in you? It’s going to
quicken you. You’re going to get excited about it. Even if you don’t see all of the results yet,
you’re going to get excited in your spirit about it.
