TAKE YOUR MEDICINE

“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

It is hard to believe that there is anyone who would not want to be healthy and live life to the fullest.  It is difficult to understand that if someone promised you health and wellness you would not take the opportunity of possessing it.  Well, I want you to know that this is just what is happening within the lives of countless of people in the day in which we live. 

God has promised life and health which we can believe, receive, and possess.  I do not believe it is difficult to attain this level of living; however, this life is contingent on one thing.  The Word of God!  You must be deliberate and diligent to give the time it will take to read His Word and believe the words you are taking in.  You have to prefer listening to His sayings found in His Word than to incline your ear to anything else.  You are to meditate on His Word and His sayings so that you do not let them go from your hearing and seeing.  And you are to keep them in your heart so your whole being is affected by them.  What is the result, what is the benefit that will come to you from this consistent pursuit in your life?  Life and health!

So today I encourage you to take your medicine.  The medicine of the Word of God!  This medicine comes with no adverse side effects.  This medicine promises to bring life and health to your whole body!  I encourage you to take your dosage of God’s Word daily!

ENCOURAGEMENT:   God has given us a prescription for life and health.  It is free.  He has prescribed His Word which will usher in restoration to your mind, body, soul, and spirit.  Begin taking doses of His Word daily and you will see life and health come to you!

“O taste and see that the Lord is good:  blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.”  Psalm 34:8
