Take Your Medicine

We have found out in previous blogs that attending to God’s Word, inclining your ear to His sayings, and keeping them before your eyes causes God’s Word to get into your heart.

From Proverbs 4:20-22, it is only as God’s Word gets into our heart and stays there that it will produce healing in your body. Head knowledge won’t do. God’s Word is going to have to penetrate into your spirit through meditation, attending, hearing, looking, muttering, musing, affirming, decreeing, and pondering, to produce healing in your body. But once His Word penetrates, it will surely bring health to all your flesh.

The Living Bible tells us to “let them (God’s Word) penetrate within your heart.”

You can see again that God’s way of healing is spiritual. God’s power and virtue is ministered first to your spirit, and then distributed to your body. God’s medicine (Word) must be taken internally.

Instead of wondering whether you have enough faith to be healed, just faithfully take the medicine of God’s Word and be at perfect peace. Feed on the healing scriptures several times a day, repeating them over and over to yourself until they become a part of you. God’s medicine will work if you will get it inside of you.

Remember, it takes time for medicine to work. Most people give natural medicine a lot of time and patience and money to work. They take the prescription back for refills and more refills. They are diligent about it. They don’t just take one dose and expect a miracle.

Keep taking God’s medicine. Give it time to work, and it will work for you. Take your medicine by speaking healing scriptures to yourself out loud. Think on what you’re saying in your heart. Use them in prayer and praise to the Father. God’s Word is medicine to all your flesh (Proverbs 4:22).
