IMMUNE TO POISON
And these signs shall follow them that believe…if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover (Mark 16:17-18).
Are you aware that now that you’re born again, it’s not possible for you to be poisoned? No infection can thrive in your body. The life of God in you will nullify and neutralize the effects of any venom in your body. Paul proved it. While on the island of Melita, he was bitten by a venomous viper. The people expected him to swell, fall down suddenly and die as a result of the venom from the snake, but the Bible says, Paul shook off the viper into the fire and felt no harm (Acts 28:5).
It doesn’t matter how venom is injected or ingested into your body; it’ll have no effect on you. That’s what the Lord Jesus meant when He said, “…if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them…” (Mark 16:18).
The word “drink” in the Greek is “pino,” which means to imbibe, suck in, absorb or assimilate. That means the deadly thing doesn’t have to have gone in through your mouth; if your body absorbs, ingests, assimilates or receives any deadly thing, in whatever form, such a substance will have no effect on you.
Someone says, “I got malaria because I was exposed to mosquito bites.” No! The life in you destroys parasites and disease-causing pathogens; it’s poison-resistant. Have this consciousness; live every day with the understanding of who you are in Christ. You’re of the “uninfectable” breed, immune to any venom or poison. Glory to God! Amen.
CONFESSION
I’m immune to every form of toxin, poison or venom. I walk in the reality of who I am in Christ, a new creation with the indestructible and “uninfectable” life of God in me. I walk in health, strength and victory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
