Welcome to the last segment of this series. Last week, I showed you faith as the key to instant miracle healing. This week, I want to show you what will help you to understand the covenant of total health.

There are no special people with God; there are only people with special insight. That is what makes them appear special, because we serve a covenant-keeping God.

God’s Word is the carrier of God’s power. It’s through the Word that we take delivery of our inheritance (Romans 1:16; 2 Peter 1:3). And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching…the power of the Lord was present to heal them (Luke 5:17). The power of God was being transmitted, bringing healing to them. Our inheritance is transmitted through the power of His Word.

We serve a covenant-keeping God. My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips (Psalm 89:34). While this earth remains, God’s covenant remains binding.

The Bible is a Book of covenants. All those things stated in Deuteronomy 28:1-13 are based on man cutting a covenant with God. When your part of the covenant is fulfilled, the blessing thereof is sealed and delivered. Every time the condition for a promise is met, it graduates spiritually to a covenant. You need a covenant mentality to command dominion in the affairs of life.  The word ‘testament’ simply means ‘covenant.’

What is a covenant?: A covenant is a deal between two parties, to which they subscribe in totality to the terms thereof. God, the Covenantor, is constant; the only variable is the covenantee. When your part if fulfilled, no devil in hell can stop the delivery of your blessings. The revelation of the covenant on any issue puts you supernaturally in command in that area (John 8:32).
How to cut a covenant of total health with God:

1. Living on the Word: Living on the Word is the principal key to cutting a covenant of total health with God (Psalm 89:34).

2. The love of God: Love is presented in 1 John 3:14 -15 as a vital source of life. So, when you begin to operate on the frequency of perfect love, you operate where there is no room for sickness (1 John 4:16-18). The Holy Ghost is the One who fires the love of God into our hearts, which empowers us to live a super healthy life.

3. Supernatural utterance: Death and life are in the power of the tongue… (Prov. 18:21). Your well-being is a function of the things that come out of your mouth (Mark 11:23). When the Holy Ghost gives you utterance, heaven will respect it.

God’s principal power channel: God’s principal power channel is the Holy Ghost. According to Jesus’ diagnosis, every sickness is an oppression of the devil (Acts 10:38). Oppression only bows to power (Psalm 66:3).

When Jesus saw Peter’s mother in-law, He stood over her, rebuked the foul spirit of fever and set her free. Jesus could see an oppression behind fever. It takes power for the oppressor to bow. So, the Holy Ghost is God’s principal power channel (Acts 1:8). That is your principal access to the power of God.

Where is the power of God?: God’s Word is the custodian of God’s power. The Holy Ghost is the channel to it, while God’s Word is the source. You will access power after the Holy Ghost comes upon you (Acts 1:8). The Holy Ghost is the Messenger and Interpreter of the Word (Malachi 3:1-5). God’s Word is where our total health is domiciled (Psalm 107:20; Proverbs 4:20-22).
What is in the Word that heals and keeps healthy?:

1. Divine life: Life is in the Word, and life is the cure for death. There is the spirit of life in the Word that keeps you actively alive (John 6:63). So, the more insight we gain, the livelier we become.

2. Divine light: And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not (John 1: 5). So, the oppressor that operates in the realm of darkness cannot survive this light.
