“…These curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee…. If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law…. Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law…” (Deut. 28:15,58,61).
“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree” (Gal. 3:13).
The Bible says that all sickness and disease is a curse of the law. In Deuteronomy chapter twenty-eight, the law specifically named eleven diseases as being a curse of the law; then verse sixty-one encompasses all sickness and disease as a curse of the law.
But Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law! Christ is not going to redeem us; He has already redeemed us.
Peter, looking back to the sacrifice at Calvary, said, “…by whose stripes ye were healed” (1 Peter 2:24). Not going to be, but were!
God remembers that He laid on Jesus not only the sins and iniquities of us all, but also our sicknesses and diseases (Isa. 53:4-5). Jesus remembers that He bore our sins and sicknesses for us (Matt. 8:17).
Therefore, the Holy Spirit inspired Peter to write, “…by whose stripes ye were healed.”
Confession: According to Deuteronomy 28, all sickness and disease is a curse of the law. But according to Galatians 3:13, Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law. Therefore, I am redeemed from sickness!
