Genesis 8:4 4Then the ark rested in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
For 40 days and nights, it rained so hard that the whole
world perished, except for Noah and those who were with him in
the ark. At the end of 150 days, on the 17th day of the
seventh month, the ark rested on the mountains of Ararat.
In Hebrew, the word “Ararat” means “the curse is reversed”.
The waters of judgment receded, causing the ark to rest on the
mountains of Ararat, on new ground where the curse is
reversed. And it happened on the 17th day of the seventh month
on the Feast of Firstfruits — the exact date that Jesus rose
from the dead 4,000 years later!
When Christ rose from the dead, we were raised together with
Him. (Colossians 2:12). We who are in Christ our true ark
stand on resurrection ground where the curse has been reversed
(Galatians 3:13), where diseases, poverty and failures have no
right to operate!
A church member shared how God delivered him from cervical
spondylosis, a medical condition which causes the neck section
of the spinal cord to deteriorate. An X-ray taken four to five
years back showed that that area of his spinal cord was
deteriorating fast. He was in pain and had to take medicine to
manage the condition. And whenever he had a relapse, he would
get depressed.
During his last relapse, he went to the doctor, trusting God
that he was already healed, had another X-ray taken and was
given some medication. He took the medication, still believing
God that he was healed. The following morning, the pain in his
neck was gone and he was able to turn his head. When he
finally collected his X-ray results a week later, his doctor
actually told him that his spinal cord looked better than the
doctor’s own! The doctor was very surprised because patients
with this condition usually don’t get better. God had reversed
the curse of cervical spondylosis for him!
My friend, as a believer, you are on no-curse ground. You
stand in the blessings zone where it is very easy for God’s
blessings to rain all over you!
