[Thus you were circumcised when] you were buried with Him in [your] baptism, in which you were also raised with Him [to a new life] through [your] faith in the working of God [as displayed] when He raised Him up from the dead. Colossians 2:12 (AMPC)
This is the ultimate revelation in the area of divine health. This is God’s best for every one of His children – We were raised with Christ to a New Life.
Thank God for right diet food, exercise, medicine, doctors and all these natural ways of healing and health. They are His natural provisions for us to live healthy, strong and fruitful.
Thank God for healing through prayer for ourselves, others praying for us, the laying on of hands, anointing with oil from the elders or mature believers, and the spiritual gifts of healing. All these are supernatural provisions from God for our health and wellness.
But God’s ultimate and best for all of us is to awake to, realize and take advantage of the New Life in Christ that we have been raised to. Jesus while in this same physical body that we have, was conscious of and fully took advantage of this life so much so that it constantly flowed out of Him to make those around Him whole and well.
As the Church, the Body of Christ this belongs to us and we can walk in it.
