Romans 6:23; says sin pays the one who engages in it with death. Sickness is an agent of death. When somebody falls sick, the reason people become concerned is because it can lead to death. This tells us that sin, sickness and death are all linked together. In reference to 1 Kings 17:17-18; The sin of the widow of Zarephath took ill and later died. By the time the widow met Elijah, she asked, “Why have you done this? Do you want to bring my sin to remembrance? In other words, she believed some sin she committed some time ago, which had probably been swept under the carpet, was now having its toll on her (Psalm 107 :17). Anyone who lives in sins is a slave of satan according to Romans 6:16.
In addition, 1 John 3 :8; says the one who sins is a property of the devil. Sin always connects the sinner with satan. When you sin, satan automatically has what belongs to him in you, making the fellow a slave of the devil. So captivity and bondage leads to death.
Also, poverty and hunger are agents of death. Never believe the lie of anyone that poverty is good. The evil of poverty is not only that it can kill the poor before their time, for in 2 KINGS 6 :24 – 29; we read of how two women were so hungry that they decided to use their children for breakfast just to live for a few more days!
I pray for you, you shall not be a victim of poverty in Jesus name. Are you still connected with sin, evil thoughts, plans or emotions?
Break them off today!
PRAYER: My Father! My Father! As I begin to pray now, purge me totally from every secret sin, and mould me to live above sin continually, in Jesus name.
