ATTEND TO THE WORD

“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 unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh” (Proverbs 4:20-22)

Do you realize that the Word of God is health to your flesh? The Hebrew word ‘marpe’ which is translated health in our opening scripture can also be translated ‘medicine.’ The Word of God is medicine to your flesh; this means if you take the Word of God into your system, it will produce results in you. It will heal your body, get rid of the cancer and destroy the migraine headaches; that’s the way the Word of God works – it heals your bones and cleanses your blood. Realize that your healing is in the Word and it’s important to apply it to your body.

God uses His Word to bring about what He desires. If you need health in your body today, God will only create it through His Word. Psalm 107:17-20 says, “Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted… they draw near unto the gates of death. Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses. He sent his word, and healed them…” God sent healing to them through His Word. Your healing is in the Word and it’s important you give it your attention.

In our opening scripture, the Bible enjoins us to attend to the Word because of its ability to produce life and health in you. This goes beyond agreeing with the Word mentally. The Word has to go into your spirit and become personal to you; meditate on it till it alters your mindset and inundates you entire being, and then confess it with your mouth. Praise God!
