Jeremiah 17:14 - "Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for You are my praise."
What is our first reaction when we get sick? Do we reach for the Bible and God’s promises, or do we swallow an aspirin? Or, how do we react when we are sick with anxiety or depression? Do we go to God or the things of this world to help us?
Religion and medicine are products of the temporal world, imperfect instruments that seek to make a cursed world right. However, when God heals and saves He does it perfectly because He invokes the eternal to supersede the temporal. He famously calls into being that which formerly did not exist. Beloved of God, we must continue to seek God for that which replaces the natural efforts of mankind. We must cry, "Abba, Father, Papa!" and He will cause supernatural deliverance, saving us to the uttermost.
