There is an enemy who wants <strong>to</strong> destroy us, an<br />

enemy who wants <strong>to</strong> oppress us with sickness <strong>and</strong><br />

s<strong>to</strong>p us from reaping the harvest of <strong>health</strong> <strong>and</strong> divine<br />

<strong>life</strong> that is our inheritance as believers. I am not<br />

saying all diseases are caused <strong>by</strong> spirits, but let’s not<br />

forget spirits exist. The gospel of Luke records how<br />

our Lord Jesus healed a woman who had been<br />

oppressed <strong>by</strong> a “spirit of infirmity” (Luke 13:10–17).<br />

For eighteen years she was bent over <strong>and</strong> could not<br />

raise herself up. Our Lord Jesus Himself said it was<br />

because Satan had bound her.<br />

Thank God for doc<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>and</strong> nurses who have<br />

dedicated their lives <strong>to</strong> caring for the sick,<br />

preventing diseases, <strong>and</strong> alleviating the sufferings of<br />

their patients. They are a gr<strong>eat</strong> blessing, <strong>and</strong> I fully<br />

believe God can work through them.<br />

But there is a limit <strong>to</strong> what doc<strong>to</strong>rs can do when<br />

spiritual forces are involved, <strong>and</strong> we cannot use<br />

natural means <strong>to</strong> come against supernatural forces.<br />

The apostle Paul wrote:<br />

For we do not wrestle against flesh <strong>and</strong><br />

blood, but against principalities, against<br />

powers, against the rulers of the darkness of<br />

this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness<br />

in the heavenly places. (Eph. 6:12)
