Devotion/3 John 1:2-3

Satan Destroys; God Restores/

3 John 1:2-3 (KJV)
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.”

The Saviour in His miracles revealed the power that is continually at work in man’s behalf, to sustain and to heal him. Through the agencies of nature, God is working, day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment, to keep us alive, to build up and restore us. When any part of the body sustains injury, a healing process is at once begun; nature’s agencies are set at work to restore soundness. But the power working through these agencies is the power of God. All life-giving power is from Him. When one recovers from disease, it is God who restores him. Sickness, suffering, and death are work of an antagonistic power. Satan is the destroyer; God is the restorer.  ”Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” 3 John 1:2 KJV)  Excerpt from MH pp 112-113 by Ellen G.
