The Idols of Sickness

In this class, we will take a bold and healing journey. We’ll uncover how sickness is not what it seems and how it ties to false beliefs—idols—that block us from knowing our true spiritual power. We’ll learn that the mind, not the body, is where healing happens. The world has taught us that sickness is physical and inevitable, but we will learn that it is a choice made in the mind—a choice to forget God. As we move through each section of this class, we will come to see that healing begins the moment we remember who we really are: God’s beloved child, forever whole and forever at peace.

1. Introduction – The Trap of Sickness

We will start by exposing sickness as a false god—an idol that we’ve unconsciously worshipped. Sickness seems to justify fear, suffering, and separation from love, but it only has power if we give it power. In this section, we will prepare our minds to let go of the belief that sickness can offer us anything valuable.

Supporting Scriptures:

• “You shall have no other gods before Me.” —Exodus 20:3
• “The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed and restore him from his bed of illness.” —Psalm 41:3
• “By His wounds we are healed.” —Isaiah 53:5

2. At Home in God – Remembering Where We Belong

Next, we will remember where we truly live—not in a body, not in pain, but in God. We will learn that our natural state is peace and joy, and that we’ve only forgotten it. God’s presence is our true home, and sickness is a sign we’ve wandered from it. But we can return at any moment.

Supporting Scriptures:

• “In Him we live and move and have our being.” —Acts 17:28
• “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” —Psalm 23:6
• “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God.” —John 14:1

3. The Decision to Forget – How We Lost Sight of Truth

We will explore how sickness comes from a decision to forget God and to see ourselves as weak and vulnerable. It’s not something that happens to us but something that happens by us when we forget our connection to divine love. This section will empower us to take responsibility—not in blame, but in freedom.

Supporting Scriptures:

• “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” —Hosea 4:6
• “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” —Romans 12:2
• “If we are faithless, He remains faithful—for He cannot deny Himself.” —2 Timothy 2:13

4. The God of Sickness – Dismantling a False Power

Here we will expose the ‘god’ of sickness—a cruel and punishing force we mistakenly obey. We’ll realize that when we bow to sickness, we are worshipping fear, not God. This part of the class will help us stop giving our loyalty to pain and start giving it back to love.

Supporting Scriptures:

• “You cannot serve both God and mammon.” —Matthew 6:24
• “God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God.” —1 John 4:16
• “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.” —Ephesians 5:11

5. The End of Sickness – Choosing Truth Instead

We will then reach a turning point where we will see that healing is inevitable once we choose to remember the truth. Sickness will end not because we fight it, but because we stop making it real. Love will replace fear, and the light of truth will heal what fear tried to hide.

Supporting Scriptures:

• “Perfect love casts out fear.” —1 John 4:18
• “For I will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal.” —Jeremiah 30:17
• “The truth will set you free.” —John 8:32

6. The Denial of God – The Root of All Illusion

Finally, we will see that all sickness is really a denial of God’s presence. When we deny God, we forget our identity and accept illusions in its place. This last section will guide us to make a new decision—to affirm God’s love, presence, and power as our reality, and to leave every illusion behind.

Supporting Scriptures:

• “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God.’” —Psalm 14:1
• “Come near to God and He will come near to you.” —James 4:8
• “If God is for us, who can be against us?” —Romans 8:31

🌟 Summary

In this Class , we will move from fear to faith, from illusion to truth, and from sickness to healing. We will unmask sickness as an idol and false god that has no real power. We will remember we are at home in God, that our decision to forget Him can be reversed, and that true healing begins when we reclaim our identity in His love. This class will show us that we were never broken—only mistaken—and that the truth is, we are already whole.
