Happiness is God Medicine

Depression and sadness attract sickness and disease. Joy, laughter, and happiness release the power of God to bring health and cure. Shake yourself. Your future is just as bright as the promises of God.

After a great tragedy, David encouraged himself in the Lord (1 Samuel 30:6). You must do the same—encourage yourself, laugh, shout for joy, and celebrate your life, your health, and your future. God is with you. God is for you.

Look what the Bible says in Proverbs 17:22:

A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. (NIV)

Being cheerful keeps you healthy. (Good News)

A happy heart is a healing medicine… (Smith-Goodspeed)

A glad heart makes a healthy body… (Basic English)

A glad heart is excellent medicine, a spirit depressed wastes the bones away. (Jerusalem)

Make the following affirmation of faith often:

“Ha, ha, ha, ha! I have a merry heart. Depression and sickness can’t dominate me. Satan can’t dominate me. I have a merry heart. I’m full of health, strength, and joy. A merry heart works like medicine. God’s medicine of joy and happiness is working in me and healing me.”

Cast all of your cares on God and allow yourself to be happy!
