LIFE TO ALL YOUR FLESH
Proverbs 4:22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
It is the will of God to heal. One reason we know that is because the Word of God is life to all our flesh. The Word of God, the Zoe (God kind of life), will drive out all sickness and disease. We must understand that God’s Word is medicine. If we would be as faithful to take our scriptural medicine as we are to take pills the doctor prescribes, we would see great changes in our bodies. We must be like the prophet who said, “I found your word, and I did eat it and it was the joy and rejoicing of my soul” (Jeremiah 15:16).
When we need healing for our bodies, we must first find the Word of God on that subject. The Bible happens to be loaded with scriptures concerning our physical bodies. As we find them, we must eat them. How do you partake of scripture, so it becomes health to all your flesh? You read it, hear it, meditate on it, speak it, and apply it (do it). The verses right before today’s scripture say that we must attend to this Word, incline our ears to it, keep our eyes on it, and keep it in the midst of our hearts. Our hearts must be tended to and kept full of the living, life giving Word of God, especially on the subject of healing. Think of it this way. For those of you who are vitamin takers, vitamins are great, but one specific healing scripture every day will do so much more for you than a vitamin. So, take your vitamins daily but with them, take what will bring life to all your flesh, the healing Word of God.
