God’s?Word is Supernatural MedicineAdapted in part from "Just Pray NO!" Ltd. Modified by God created man (Adam and Eve) to be and stay connected to Him. God is the life-giver. When Adam sinned, that connection was broken, and he died spiritually (disconnected from God) and then he began to die physically as well. That is what Jesus was communicating to us in John 15, about staying connected to God. He told us that He is the vine and we are the branches. If we do not stay connected to Him we will die a slow spiritual death, which will eventually cause a premature physical death due to anxiety, depression, fear, anger, bitterness, etc… All of which hurt our bodies and opens the door for disorders and diseases. Jesus came to show us how to live. That is why He told us that He is “The Way, The Truth and The Life”, (John 14:6). The Bible, the Word of God tells and shows us how to be reconnected and stay connected to God, (John 3:16). This connection allows us to live a life of peace, health and prosperity, (3 John 2). These scriptures reveal God’s desire for man to walk with Him and be in health, be whole and safe from the enemy and the world, (John 16:33). Take time each day to read the scripture for that day and then review on the following days. If you memorize the Word, it will have greater impact in your life. Memorizing is like the eating of food. If you only sniffed, smelled and licked the food it would have no nutritional value. But, when you eat the food, the nutrients help your body to grow and stay well. The same is true with God’s Word. Read, memorize and meditate on these healing scriptures and speak them out of your mouth, and you will begin to be healed, whole and safe (John 3:17). NOTE: The Word is very clear about the power of your words, so be careful not to speak death when you are believing for healing and life. Look up these scriptures on the tongue, and memorize 2-3 of them, (Prov 12:6, 18:20-21, Matt 15:11, Mark 11:22-24, Job 22:28, James 3:4). Speak life (what God says about you), not death (what you feel or hear others say about you).Proverbs 14:30 (Amplified)A calm?and?peaceful?and?tranquil heart is life?and?health to the body, But passion?and?envy are like rottenness to the bones.Isaiah 26:3 (NIV)You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are stayed on you (the Word)?because they trust?in you (the Word).Proverbs 4:20 – 22 says, “My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart; for they are life to those that find them, and health to all their flesh.” The Hebrew word for “health” in verse 22 is “medicine.” God’s Word is medicine to all our flesh. The Isaac Leeser translation of Exodus 15:26 reads, “…I the Lord am thy physician.” The medicine He prescribes is His Word.Many make the mistake of substituting belief in healing for the actual taking of God’s medicine – His Word. They say, “I believe in healing” without actually taking the medicine. What good would it do you to believe in food if you didn’t eat it? You would starve. What good would it do you to believe in water if you didn’t actually drink any? You would die of thirst.God’s Word is His medicine. There are several parallels between God’s medicine and natural medicine.?First, God’s Word is a healing agent just as natural medicine?is a healing agent or catalyst. In other words, the medicine itself contains the capacity to produce healing. God’s Word contains inherent within it the capacity, the energy, the ability, the nature to effect healing in your body. Psalm 107:20 says, “He sent His word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” Fenton says, “He sent out His word, and it healed, and from their corruptions it freed!” Proverbs 4:22 Says, “For they (His Words) are life to those that find them, and health to all their flesh.” Isaiah 55:10, 11 says the Word of God will accomplish what it was sent out to do.The Word itself contains the power to produce what it says, just as when God said, “Let there be light … and there was light.” Healing Scriptures contain within them the capacity to produce healing. Hebrews 4:12 says, “The word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit…” Weymouth says, “God’s Message is full of life and power…” Jordan says, “God’s Word is alive with energy…” Knox says, “God’s word to us is something alive, full of energy…” The key to partaking of the life and healing energy in the Word is feeding on it until it penetrates your spirit where it deposits that life and energy.We might say that medicine is no respecter of persons. It will work for anyone who takes it. It is not a matter of God willing or not willing the healing of any individual, but whether or not the individual will receive healing by taking the medicine that produces it.Most importantly, medicine must be taken according to directions to be effective.?Some medicine labels read, “Take internally;” others say “Take externally.” To rub it on your body externally when the directions say to take it internally will not work. To take it after meals when the directions say take it before meals will reduce its effectiveness. To take it once in a while when the directions say three times every day will mean limited results, if any. No matter how good the medicine is, it must be taken according to directions, or it won’t work. So it is with God’s medicine. It must be taken according to directions to work.The directions for taking God’s medicine are found in Proverbs 4:20, 21. Attend to them, incline your ear to them, don’t let them depart from before your eyes, and keep them in the midst of your heart. We might say that attending to them, inclining your ear to them, and keeping them before your eyes causes them to get into the midst of your heart. Notice this – it is only as they get in the midst of your heart and stay there that they produce healing in your body. Head knowledge won’t do. They are going to have to penetrate to your spirit through meditation – attending, hearing, looking, muttering, musing, and pondering – to produce healing in your body. But once they do penetrate, they will surely bring health to all your flesh. The Living Bible says, “…let them penetrate deep within your heart.” You can see again that God’s way of healing is spiritual. Power is ministered first to your spirit and then distributed to your body. God’s medicine must be taken internally.Listen, instead of wondering whether you have enough faith to be healed, just take the medicine. Here is a list of healing Scriptures – feed on them several times a day, repeating them over and over again to yourself. The medicine itself will work if you will get it inside you.Remember that 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.Take your medicine. Say these Scriptures to yourself. Think on what you’re saying in your heart. Use them in praise to the Father. His Word is medicine to all your flesh.Day 1: Psalm 50:15“Sacrifice thank offerings?to God,?fulfill your vows?to the Most High, and call?on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver?you, and you will honor?me.”Day 2: Exodus 23:25And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless your bread, and your water; and take sickness and disease away from your midst. Day 3: Exodus 15:26And said, If you wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD your God, and will do that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon you, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that heals you.Day 4: Psalm 91:9-10Because you have made the LORD, your refuge, even the most High, your habitation; no evil will befall you, neither shall any plague or calamity come near your dwelling.Day 5: Psalm 103:1-5Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget all his benefits: He forgives all of our iniquities; and heals all our diseases; He redeems my life from destruction; and crowns me with lovingkindness and tender mercies; He satisfies my mouth with good things; so that my youth is renewed like the eagle’s.Day 6: Psalm 107:19-20Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saves them out of their distresses. He sent His word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.Day 7: Proverbs 4:20-23My son, attend to my words; incline your ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.Day 8: Isaiah 41:10“Fear not; I am with you: be not dismayed; for I am your God: I will strengthen thee; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.”Day 9: Isaiah 53:4-5Surely he bore our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.Day 10: Isaiah 55:9-11For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and returns not, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.Day 11: Isaiah 58:6-11Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke? Is it not to give your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor that are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you hide not yourself from your own flesh? Then shall your light break forth as the morning, and your health shall spring forth speedily: and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the LORD shall be your reward.Then shalt you call, and the LORD shall answer; you shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; And if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall your light rise in obscurity, and your darkness will be as the noonday: And the LORD shall guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and make fat your bones: and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.Day 12: Jeremiah 30:17For I will restore health unto you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says the LORD; because they called you an Outcast, saying, “This is Zion, whom no man seeks after.”Day 13: Malachi 3:6“For I am the Lord, I change not”Day 14: Malachi 4:2-3But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, says the LORD of hosts.Day 15: Matthew 7:7-11Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son asks for bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?Day 16: Matthew 8:16-17When evening was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.Day 17: Matthew 9:35And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.Day 18: Matthew 15:30-31And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus’ feet; and he healed them: Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.Day 19: Mark 11:22-24And Jesus answering said unto them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be removed, and be cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he says shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he says. Therefore, I say unto you, “Whatsoever you desire, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you shall have them.”Day 20: Mark 16:17-18And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.Day 21: Luke 4:17-19And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.Day 22: Luke 9:1-2Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.Day 23: Luke 10:8-9And into whatsoever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you: And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come near unto you.Day 24: Luke 13:16And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?Day 25: Acts 4:29-30And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto your servants, that with all boldness they may speak your word, By stretching forth your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of the holy child Jesus.Day 26: Acts 5:15-16Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them. There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.Day 27: Acts 10:38How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.Day 28: Galatians 3:13Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree.Day 29: James 5:13-16Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray. Is any merry? Let him sing psalms. Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.Day 30: 1 John 5:14-15“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he hears us: And if we know that he hears us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”Day 31: 3 John 2“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.” ................
