Lessons I Learnt From Observing Our Pet Dog - Part 4

Recently we brought Scot to the veterinarian for some sores on his legs which had started to bleed and while we were waiting for the helper to fetch his medication, we chanced upon a chart which lists all the possible ailments that dogs would be susceptible to. The list was a fairly long one and as we read each type of sickness and how it would impact dogs in general, we could not help but noticed that Scot practically had all the symptoms described there.

Now, according to the list, some of the sicknesses are pretty potent and yet, when we look at Scot, his tongue is as healthy as can be - all pinkish and red with good blood circulation. Then the Lord reminded me that Scot is a blessed dog because he belongs to a blessed family and because of his blessedness, he will live a long life.

And so I was immediately arrested to the fact that we, as blessed sons and daughters of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, will live up to a good age and we are filled up on health; sometimes symptoms appear on our bodies but the truth of the matter is, we are the Lord's and as His own, divine health is our portion. The moment we realize that and start to declare that over our lives, viruses will have to leave our bodies for where the Temple of the Holy Spirit is, there will be LIFE and health.

And so I learnt from observing Scot that "as my days, so shall my strength be" Deuteronomy 33:25.

A New Believer's Prayer

Thank you Father for loving us so much that You sent Your precious Son Jesus Christ to this world to die for all our sins. I receive Jesus into my heart as my Lord and Savior.
Thank you that all my sins have been nailed to the Cross on Jesus at His death and because He died in our place, I am now saved forever. I have been made righteous in Your sight because of what Jesus did and I can now enjoy Your blessings over my life. Thank you for the privilege of being called Your Child and for the Gift of Your Holy Spirit in my life. AMEN
