And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness (Romans 8:10).

Often in a well-translated King James Version of the Bible, you'd observe some italicized words due to missing links in the manuscripts. Consequently, the correct rendering of our opening verse ought to have been, "And if Christ be in you, though your body is dead because of sin, the Spirit gives it life because of righteousness." The updated New International Version actually renders it similarly.

Then we come to the 11th verse of the same Romans 8; it says, But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. The word translated as but doesn't necessarily have to be 'but'. Its best rendered as 'and', 'now', 'then' or 'so'. Either of these forgoing words provides a more fitting connection.

So, lets now put these in the right context and read: "And if Christ be in you, though your body is dead because of sin, the Spirit gives it life because of righteousness. Now, if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you (Romans 8:10-11).

Even now, as you read this, if your physical body has already been so battered, bruised, damaged and ravaged by sickness and disease, there can be a change. If it had been paralyzed, the Holy Spirit can give life to your physical body and restore you to perfect health!

Its one of the reasons we speak in tongues. The Bible says, "He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself.." (1 Corinthians 14:4). The Greek word translated edifieth is oikodomeo, which means to construct or build up, to embolden or charge up like youd charge a battery.

Thus, the one who speaks in tongues builds himself up, charges himself, and rejuvenates himself. What happens when you do this is that the power of God within you courses through your being, vitalizing your physical body.

Spend some time right now to speak in tongues; the power thats at work in you even now will revive, vitalize and produce life in your body or wherever you require it.

Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for the impact of the Holy Spirit in my life and on my physical body. I activate the power by speaking in tongues, therefore, Im invigorated, refreshed, energized and vitalized; health courses through my being, and sickness and all that hurts and binds are dispelled, in Jesus Name. Amen.
