Did you know that you have the power to choose your health. There’s an old saying that says "whether you think you can, or you think you can’t either way you’re right." Well the same principle applies to the words that we say out of our mouth. Therefore, if I say that I think i’m feeling sick today, I bring sickness upon my body. If I use a powerful affirmation such as "I am well today and always" and I focus on that, then I am eliminating sickness out of my body.

The reason you may feel sick is because at sometime, whether consciously or subconsciously, you may have focused to much on the fact that you might be sick and wound up bringing it on yourself. If you say you’re sick or if you declare that you’re well… either way it goes you’re right.

There are many families who have a history of certain illnesses or diseases. I believe that through prayer and declaring that you are healthy, regardless of your family history, you have the power to beat illnesses.

I heard a story of a young lady who was diagnosed with breast cancer and she heard all of the negative reports of the doctors. However, in her mind she believed that she was cured of her affliction. Regardless of what the nay sayers were saying, she was determined to live her life happy and full of life and she didn’t worry about the outcome of her affliction. It turned out that over sometime after being diagnosed, she went in for a check up and doctors found no sign of the cancer. To their surprise it was gone.

The lady reported that after hearing the news of her being diagnosed with breast cancer she imagined her life as if she didn’t have cancer. She went out and enjoyed herself as if she had nothing to worry about. She believed with all of her heart that she was cured and she released it out of her mind.

I’m here to say to you that if you have a history of diabetes, heart failure, cancer, or any type of illness, you must be careful not to focus your thoughts on those illnesses because they will manifest themselves in your life.
