Heart attacks, stroke, cancer, kidney disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, among other illnesses, are running rampant throughout the world today causing much pain and suffering. We live in a sickness-ladened society where many people are dying every day and many are on medication to control their sickness to keep them from early death. Why are there so many sick people in the world?

“My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.” [Proverbs 3:1-2]

Believe it or not, the purpose of life is not to be sick and suffer. When we become sick we have subconsciously broken the law of health and wellness. God gave man life to manifest his glory on earth as it is in heaven; therefore, sickness is not part of his divine plan, but it is the consequences of breaking the spiritual law of health.

The law of health states that if your faith or belief is not in perfect health, this unfaithful and negative mindset will cause sickness or dis-ease in the body. This spiritual law or law of mind governs all human beings; no one is exempt from this law. If you violate it your body will bear the consequences. This law does not discriminate; it is the same for everyone regardless of their financial status, education, race, religion, or political affiliation. The Bible gave us a clue as to this law when it stated; “as a man thinketh in his heart so is he.”

In truth, what we call the sickness is actually the symptom of a deeper spiritual dis-ease. The root of the sickness stems from within our beliefs about sickness which are lodged in our hearts and souls. When we break the spiritual law of health and wellness, sickness is the result. If we choose to believe in sickness, it gets in our soul and we give it power to manifest in our body. In other words, deep in our hearts we do not have faith in health and wellness, we have fear instead; therefore, the fear in our hearts and souls manifest into the sickness that we experience.

If you are in denial about your fear of sickness, it will reveal the truth about this lack of faith in your body in the form of illness or disease. In other words, illness or disease indicate that fear has stymied our healing and immune system. As stated above, it does not matter how religious you are, it all depends on your heartfelt faith or fear about health and sickness. If in your heart you feel that sickness is normal, your beliefs are resisting or blocking the flow of health and wellness into your body and leaving you open and vulnerable to sickness and disease predators.

Realize that health is a gift from God, it is man’s birth right. In other words, it is supernatural for humans to be healthy and live a long life. It is unnatural for them to be sick and die early. However, due to man’s lack of spiritual awareness, he chose the fear-based beliefs of the spirit of the world rather than the faith-based-beliefs of the spirit of God. Therefore, the consequences have been the massive worldwide sickness we are experiencing today.

The Law says that if you have faith in God for health and wellness, you will experience health and wellness and if you have fear or lack of trust, you will experience sickness in the mind or body. Therefore, increasing your faith (i.e. understanding your power) is the key to abiding by the law of health and wellness. Not trusting divine spirit places resistance and separation between you and the optimum health life that God intended for you to live.

The reward of abiding by the spiritual law is health, wellness and longevity. The consequence of breaking the spiritual law is sickness and possibly early death. If you have fear in your heart, through meditation it is advised to seek wise counsel of the highly enlightened soul that is within you to assist in healing the fear.
