For so many years, I believed a lie. That autoimmune diseases were a mystery. No one could figure out how and why they came about. Somehow this amazing system that God put in place to protect us suddenly became our enemy and started attacking our very own body. Nonsense. Your immune system is the bomb. A most divinely designed part of the human body and we simply could not live without it. It is the army of the Lord strategically placed throughout the body and the best defence system ever created. If we had an immune system for Isis there would be no Isis or terrorist in the world. It would be easy to write this whole blog just on your immune system and its beauty. But that is not my intent here.
I want to share what has gone wrong with the body when there is an autoimmune disease such as diabetes, crohn's, ulcerative colitis, arthritis to name a few. I what to share what happens when someone has deadly, damaging emotions running around in their body.
Lets just say that what a person feels emotionally becomes how their body feels and reacts physically. For example if (a person) someone tells themselves long enough that they don’t like themselves and their self talk keeps filling them up with self hatred, eventually their white blood cells get the message that they are under attack. If a person attacks themselves spiritually eventually the body will attack them physically. Depending on where the attack takes place, depends on what dis-ease happens in the body.
Let me share with you my personal story. I was married to the man of my dreams, so I thought for a very long time, over 15 years. We had what I believed to be a beautiful marriage, until he had a midlife crisis when suddenly I was too fat, too old and just not attractive to him anymore. I was traded in for a newer younger model. I know this is an old story, but it happened to me. Needless to say I was devastated and turned in on myself with a lot of self hatred and self rejection. I ended up with hashimoto's disease, a fancy word for hypothyroidism.An autoimmune diseases. I was consumed with fear, anxiety, stress so constantly that my white corpusles decided that my thyroid was the enemy and my thyroid levels became seriously low.
Here’s where conventional medicine is good. Thank God I was able to get help in the form of pills to keep my thyroid levels up, but that will not cure me. In fact according to conventional medicine I can not be cured. But God's view on this is totally different. No dis-ease is incurable, if I will stop attacking myself spiritually God can and will heal me. But the stinking thinking has to stop. I can not keep filling myself with self rejection and self hatred and expect to be healed. The Bible tells me I am fearfully and wonderfully made and a man's opinion of me can never supersede God’s word about who I am. I can take all the pills I want and have my dis-ease managed or I can come into agreement with the word of God and start loving myself. I caused my thyroid to malfunction because of fear, anxiety and stress and when I eliminate that thinking my thyroid will kick back in again and God can step in and heal me.
We do not have to live with our dis-eases. We do not have to settle for dis-ease management, we can be dis-ease free. The battle is won by finding out what the spiritual diagnosis is and what the spiritual cure is. That's what we are all about at Kingdom Meditation, we are spiritually healing the human race.
Much Love,
