We've blogged about causes and results of Spiritual Anemia. Let's wrap up this mini series by looking at some remedies for those afflicted with this insiduous affliction.
First of all, an individual with Spiritual Anemia needs sunshine. An individual who has symptoms of Spiritual Anemia may possibly be walking behind light. That is, he/she may not be in obedience to God's will in some area of life. It may be that God has asked them to do something, or perhaps give up some harmful practice, but so far they are not being obedient to what God is asking. In other words, they are walking behind God's light. Such a person needs to step out in obedience to a holy God thereby living in the sunshine of His love. It will be amazing how quickly his Spiritual Anemia will begin to disappear.
Then, too, an individual afflicted with Spiritual Anemia needs to follow a prescribed diet -- a spiritual diet, that is. As the Apostle Paul admonished Timothy in I Timothy 4:13, the afflicted person needs to "give attendance to reading" -- reading and feasting on the Word of God for his spiritual food. He needs to listen to good sermons and other supplementary reading.
And in more advanced cases of Spiritual Anemia, it may be necessary to have a blood transfusion. Of course, care must be taken that the individual receive the right kind of blood. For the anemic Christian, only one individual in the entire universe has the type of blood that is needed, and I'm sure you know what that is. We are redeemed with the precious blood of Christ. If a blood transfusion is used successfully, a change for the better will be noticed immediately.
Yes, there is a remedy for Spiritual Anemia.
