We all know what disinfectant does and what it is used for; to kill germs, bacteria, and fungus. During the Covid-19 pandemic, our nation’s populous bought and used gallons of disinfectant to slow down the spread of this dreadful disease. It was used around the world.
The title of this writing reflects two thoughts that I want
to share with you. The first thought
pertains to the sun in our galaxy that God spoke into existence for mankind. This massive star is bright, and its sunshine
provides the needed vitamin D for all of earth’s inhabitants to maintain
vitality and mental vigor in human bodies.
Vitamin D is vital to help stave off autoimmune diseases with
its healing properties. Sunlight is a
great disinfectant and provides the healing balm that the body needs so
desperately to stay healthy. The more we
bask in its rays, the healthier we are, but not in excess.
Too little sun can lead to symptoms like fatigue, bone
fractures, frequent illness, and hair loss.
The sun keeps us physically fit, much like the use of disinfectants on
our hands, doorknobs, countertops, and light switches that help keep us well.
I read on the Web that vitamin D can help impede cardiovascular
disease, many types of cancer, dementia, types 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus, and
respiratory tract infections.
My second thought to consider is the Son of God, who is our
great healer. He heals sick, unhealthy
souls that have been infected and blackened by sin. Jesus shines the light of His love into every
corner and dark crevice of our soul when we invite Him in.
When Jesus indwells the human soul, His presence becomes a
healing balm, while removing the dankness and stench that sin causes. Good health becomes reality, because we pass
from death unto life through Him. The
Lord brings physical healing and promotes excellent spiritual wellbeing,
because of who He is. The Son is the
light of the world and healer.
(John 8:12), “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying,
‘I am the light of the world. He who
follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.’ “
I mean no disrespect to Jesus by calling Him names, but He is
the all-purpose disinfectant and healing balm that mankind so desperately
needs. He heals broken hearts, provides
light to wayward souls, and gives hope to the hopeless, while cleaning them
from infectious sin. Jesus scrubs away
weariness of those looking for peace, while He enlightens the awareness of His
nurturing presence.
Personally, I was spiritually blind before I met Jesus and
allowed Him to heal my sin-infected soul, but now I see. I experienced God’s mercy and grace, which is
free to any person that desires their soul to be healed.
Total restoration comes the moment they bow their heart
before God and asks Him to forgive their sins.
There is no disinfectant and healing balm that can cleanse a sick soul other
than the Son of God. Only He can bring
healing. As we walk with Him, the more
we absorb His light and the stronger we become physically and spiritually.
Without the Son, humanity is sick unto death. Life loses luster and meaning. Real and lasting joy is unreachable without
Jesus. The temporary and meaningless heights
that sin brings fade quickly like the sun’s rays behind a storm cloud.
Not even the sun, with all its healing properties and
brilliance can shine bright enough to compare with the Son that brings life to
a dying soul. The Son gives lasting
light, 24/7, whereas the sun, in all its magnificence, is limited to a few
hours a day.
Jesus has unlimited healing not only for the soul, but the
physical body, as I have said. Jesus is
the exclusive source of Devine light.
There is no other source of spiritual enlightenment available to
mankind.
(Acts 4:12), “Nor is there salvation in any other, for
there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
It is a scientific fact that humanity cannot survive without
the sun. Souls are lifeless without the
Son’s sacrifice on the cross for our sins, but we need to accept Him as Lord
and Savior to receive His healing.
God’s Son is the proven disinfectant that wipes away the
bacteria of sin. There is enough of Him
to bring total healing to the whole world of sin-sick souls that are dying
without the Lord. Without Jesus in our
heart, of whom is God’s healing balm, we are as dead man’s bones with no life
in us. We will die and go into eternity
without the Son in our soul, like a flower that withers and dies without the
sun on its petals.
I’m glad I chose Jesus to be my cleaning agent to disinfect
my soul from impending death. He
cleansed me from all unrighteousness through the blood He shed on the cross. The disease of sin was eliminated. Jesus washed and cleansed me from the inside
out. I am a new creation in Him.
(2 Corinthians 5:17), “Therefore, if anyone is in
Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things
have become new.”
