Faith Food – May 14

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. — JAMES 1:17

What is good?

Acts 10:38 says that Jesus went about doing good and healing. Healing is good! Sickness is not good. Every healing comes down from the Father. Every sickness does not come down from the Father.

In the first place, where in the world would God get sickness to put on you? He doesn’t have any in Heaven. He would have to borrow some from the devil! (You can’t give someone something you don’t have.) The Bible says there is no sickness in Heaven. Therefore, sickness can’t come from Heaven.

What does come down from Heaven?

Every good gift and every perfect gift!

Confession: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from my Father, the Father of lights. Only good gifts can come down from God, for God is good, and Heaven holds only good. There is no sickness in Heaven. Therefore, sickness cannot come from God. Healing comes from God. So I purpose to receive only what my Father gives — healing!
