Sickness is a state of bad health, an unsound condition in any area of life, a feeling of nausea etc. Disease on the other hand,is a condition in living things I.e.human, animals or plants that results in symptoms. It is a specific disorder with recognizable signs often having a known cause.
The devil knows that, when a man's health is tampered with, everything about him will be affected. Health is wealth.Sickness or disease is a weapon used by the devil to cause discomfort in man to depress or discourage him and thereby divert his attention from doing well in life and in the kingdom.
Devil uses sicknesses and diseases to fulfill his three fold assignment i.e to steal,kill and destroy.
"The thief does not come except to steal and to kill and to destroy; I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly."(John 10:10).
Purposes can be affected; visions can be jeopardized by sickness or disease. Carewr can also be brought to an abrupt end with sickness. A healthy man will definitely run around to execute a great plan in order to put in place his purpose and vision. No matter how wealthy a man is, if he is knocked down by a sickness, the wealth will fade away gradually, till he gets to the stage of abject poverty. A brilliant student at any level of education can also end it at a point, if sickness or disease comes in.
You can count days, months or years for a particular need to be met just because you are healthy. You can complain of what God has not done in your life, you can raise your shoulders and jump around; many are even running around at the expense of God's assignment! All is possible because you are healthy. May you not be sick in Jesus name.
Moreover,do you know that some people are physchologically imbalanced?. Everything had been done to put them on bed to rest but did not work; strong does of sleeping medicines had been administered to them, all to no avail. There are people also, who are not on bed, psychologically okay but if they unfold to you the type of trauma they are experiencing, you will not believe.
Every form of sickness or disease take its root or source from the devil. It may be a spiritual,physical or emotional sickness. The source of a sickness or problem will definitely determine the approach to solving it. The promise and desire of God for all men is to remain in perfect health so as to make great impact in their generation.3 John 1:2 says:
"Beloved,I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health just as your soul prospers."
Emotion is a strong or deep feeling about somebody or something aroused by a situation or circumstance. When a man is emotionally destabilized, thd situation must be handled with peculiarity. To such a man, everything is blurred and confusing. It will be as if the world has come down on him. It is neither a time to bind and loose nor the time to cast out, all these may come later. The firsr approach to that person's problem is counselling.
A hardworking and brilliant student just got his result and found failed, he will automatically develop headache and severe rise in body temperature. He needs to be counselled first and later prayed for. A man that has just lost his beloved one (brother,sister,wife or husband) will first of all need an inspirational or inspired counselling after which prayer and medical attention will become relevant.
All the above challenges of life if not properly handles, may leas from mine level of trauma to the other, may even finally lead to death. The first antidote is counselling, followed by prayer and then a quick medical attention.
Do not spiritual as to carryimg your burden alone, share your burden and take a corresponding counselling, otherwise, the situation can lead to a severe medical illness such as high blood pressure, stroke, heart attack, mental disorder or death to cap it all. A woman got married late and yet no issue after many years of marriage, she decided one day, to commit suicide before her husband returned from work. Please, learn to share your burden with people that can give you right counselling.
"Where there is no counsel, the people fall, but in the multitude of counselors, there is safety."Proverb 11:14
It is also expedient that we develop a habit of making ourselves happy and joyful. No matter what comes our ways, we can have smiles on our faces. We should get up each morning, excited about the day. Even if we are facing difficult or negative circumstances, we need to learn to keep a positive outlook. Many people are waiting for their circumstance to be worked out before they can be happy. Do not allow your happiness to be conditional or circumstantial- until you get a new job, as soon as your child gets better, as soon as your health improves etc,No! The bottom line is, if you are going to be happy you need to make a decision to be happy right now.
"Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart."psalm 37:4
Happiness does not depend on your circumstances but on your will, it is a choice that you must make.
I have seen people going through awful time and unfortunate situation, yet, you will hardly know they were having a problem. They had smiles on their faces and a good report on their lips in spite of their dire dilemmas, they remain positive upbeat and energetic.
If you are going to develop a happy habit, you must learn to relax, instead of getting frustrated. You have to believe that God is in control, that means you have no need to be stressed out and worried.
"Be anxious for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known to God."Phillipians 4:6
Moreover, you have to be grateful for what you have, rather than complaining about what you don't have. A habit of happiness boils down to staying on the positive side of life.
Each day is full of surprises and inconveniences, so, you must accept the fact that, not everything can go your own way. Your plans are not always going to work out just as you scheduled them. When that happens, make a willful decision that you are not going to let the circumstances upset you.
Don't allow stress to steal your joy, instead, notable and adjustable and seek to make the best of a bad situation. However, it becomes easier for you to rejoice always irrespective of what you face,
