Let It Go!
Exodus 15:26
" ... I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord who heals you."
After crossing the Red Sea, the children of Israel came to a place called Marah. The waters there were bitter. That is why the place was called Marah, which means "bitter". The Israelites could not drink any of the water, so the Lord made the bitter waters sweet (Exodus 15:23-25). Beloved, understand that no situation in this life or on this earth is ever permanent; even the negative ones will one day pass away. That's why we should never despair nor be discouraged. Refuse to be bitter in bitter situations, but maintain your peace and keep on moving ahead. Your positive mindset and peace are very important to your health.
Then, God brought up the subject of the diseases of Egypt and, for the first time, revealed Himself to His people as "the Lord who heals you".
Why did the Lord suddenly mention the diseases of the world (Egypt represents the world in the Bible) at a place called, Marah "bitter"? What do diseases have to do with bitter waters? I believe that it was because He wanted His people to know that a major cause of diseases in their bodies is harboring bitterness and resentment!
Here is a testimony a pastor share about a member. Some years ago, a lady shared with him about her sister who had died of cancer at a young age. She said, "Pastor Prince, a number of years before she passed on, she went through a very bitter divorce. She was very bitter toward her ex-husband." Then, she asked the pastor, "Is there a relationship between her bitterness and the cancer?" The pastor responded, "I have studied the subject of healing for many years. I have read many books. I have listened to many sermons and I have sat under many healing ministries. And they all say the same thing: If you have unforgiveness in your heart long enough, that unforgiveness can sometimes translate into a disease in your body."
So if you have been bitter about something or someone, it is time to let it go! Your health, your joy and your life are more important. If you are already sick and you know that bitterness has something to do with it, let it go! See Jesus as your healer. He is standing at your place of bitterness today and He is saying to you, "My child, I can make your bitter waters sweet. I am the Lord who heals you."
My friend, let it all go and let Jesus heal not just your diseases, but your broken heart too! He can do both.
May God grant you to have a blessed week!
