Galatians 3:13 (NKJV): Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree").
It was at a tree that curse began (see Genesis 3). But the good news is Galatians 3:13 says Christ has redeemed you from that curse, having Himself become a curse for you! In Deuteronomy 21:23, notice that under the law given to Moses, anyone who hangs on a tree is accursed.
All things went wrong at one tree (in Adam & Eve's time), but Jesus made all things right at another tree (in Calvary). He came for this very reason - redemption! And it was at this 'tree' (picture of the 'cross') in Calvary that He has redeemed you! So, because of that, as a believer, you have been set free! No more curse, whatever curse it may be! Only blessings. Blessings of Abraham (Galatians 3:14). Health. Wholeness. Recovery. Restoration. Breakthrough. These are yours to receive! Victory has already been won for you at the cross. So, take it. Walk in it. Run and soar with it!
Have you been struggling in the area of health recently? Or maybe you are stuck in a debt that seems rather impossible to clear? Or you're wondering if you'll ever recover from a loss opportunity?
Whatever situation you may be facing, or no matter how impossible it seems at the moment, Jesus can. He can set you free. In fact, He came for this very reason - setting you free (see Luke 4:18-19). He is also supernatural. He is the Most High God, the possessor of heaven and earth (Genesis 14:19). And because He loves you, He is also willing. Not only will He set you free, He'll also recover you. I believe. Because His Word says so. And for many years now, I've learned to really take Him at His Word, and it has ALWAYS worked! Somehow, someway. I know it will also work for you. Believing, you'll receive. He can open the way for you, supernaturally! He can give you the breakthrough you needed, supernaturally! Yes, He can. He has done it before in Moses' time. He has also done it in Elisha's time. So, He can do it for you too, because He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). People of God, expect nothing less than the supernatural from your supernatural God!
Let's look at Moses and Elisha now.
In Exodus 15:22-26, Moses was stuck in a situation when he (and his people) went three days in the wilderness but found no water. And even when they've found water (in Marah, meaning 'bitter'), it was too bitter to drink. Not only that, Moses also had to deal with the complaints and demands of his own people then. So, in the middle of the desert, and for three days without drinkable water, all hopes seemed lost. And that's when Moses cried out to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a 'tree'. When he cast the 'tree' into the waters, something supernatural happened. The waters were made sweet, and of course, good for drinking! You see, the answer is at the 'tree' (a 'picture' of the cross). When Jesus died for you on the 'tree' (cross), He has carried all those 'bitterness' away! So, yours have been made sweet as well! Amen! And it was at that very same place, God also said, "For I AM the Lord who heals you (Jehovah Rapha)."
In 2 Kings 6:1-7, Elisha and his servants were about to build a bigger place to dwell (because the one they've been dwelling in was too small for them by then). As they came to Jordan to cut down trees to build, a servant's iron ax head fell into the water! And when Elisha was told about it, he asked the servant where it fell. That's where the supernatural happened! Elisha cut off a 'stick', and threw it into the water where the iron ax head fell. And you know what? Instead of the 'stick' floating, it was the iron ax head that floated! Elisha then asked the servant to pick it up. I don't know about you, but to me, that's a miracle! What a retrieve! What a recovery! Wow! And this is definitely supernatural! Friend, do you believe your restoration and recovery is also at hand? Yes, expect the supernatural from your supernatural God! He is more than enough in any situation you face. Now, how did the iron ax head float? It floated when the 'stick' was thrown in! The word 'stick' here in Hebrew is 'ets', which literally means 'tree'! And again, because of what Jesus has done for you on the 'tree' (cross), you too are on the way to your full recovery! Debts cancelled! Losses restored! Wealth recovered! And all these for His glory! Take it. Believe & receive it. In Jesus' name. Amen!
