Exodus 13-16

15The Lord said to Moses, Why do you cry to Me? Tell the people of Israel to go forward!

How often are we looking for a response from Heaven< and Heaven is wqaiting for a response from Earth?

3The Lord is a Man of War; the Lord is His name.

We cannot forget this. He still fights injustice; he has not changed. Those outside the blood covenant today are not privy to the benefits of that covenant.

26Saying, If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and will do what is right in His sight, and will listen to and obey His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you which I brought upon the Egyptians, for I am the Lord Who heals you.

Healing and obedient action go hand in hand in the gospels. So often Jesus gives basic instruction: offer your gift, sin no more etc. Conversely, a disobedient lifestyle will put its strain on the body. This does not mean every sickness is caused by an individual's sin as the book of Job attests.
