God has laid on my heart for awhile to open a thread to meditate on His word.. to help us find Him and all He has for us...
Proverbs 4:20-23 (King James Version)
20My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
Proverbs 4:20 and 22 20My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
22For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh
Life to those who find them.. health to all their flesh..
What a promise.. we all want life.. not death.. We all need our flesh healthy!! What a promise.. Who else on earth can promise/guarantee healthy flesh!!
Let us incline our ear Incline meaning..
To be disposed to a certain preference, opinion, or course of action.
To lower or bend the head or body, as in a nod or bow.
To bring our thoughts into line with Gods thoughts.. Our ear decides on the content of what is heard and the thoughts are absorbed into the brain.. re what we hear..
That just came to me.. !!!
I haven't any more time right now.. but I know Gods Word is life and healing.. and I want that!! I want that for more then me!!
In a sometimes confusing (Christian) arena full of pet theories, and personal philosophies and phrases, presented as truth, it's so refreshing and renewing to just go back to the gospels and read and re-read and meditate on what Jesus did and said.
That is the real truth and it washes the counterfeit "truth" right out of the mind, re-centers me and enables me to continue on my journey, walking in His footsteps until I need my next fill-up.
I am always struck by the fact that Jesus healed ALL.

Yes,.....Jesus dwells, to Heal/Clean, in the inside of the Cup, then the outter will be clean.
The Goodness Of God's Word Leads Us To Repentance~
BOARD:
Jer 14:19-21
19 Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? hath thy soul lothed Zion? why hast thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we looked for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!
20 We acknowledge, O LORD, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers: for we have sinned against thee.
21 Do not abhor us, for thy name's sake, do not disgrace the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us. KJV
The Inside of the Cup:
20 We acknowledge, O LORD, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers: for we have sinned against thee.
Where we have made covenants with the enemies on our heart land:
1. Pride (Ammorite)
2. Fear (Hittite Nation)
3. Condemnation - Rejection (Canaanite Nation)
4. Rebellion (Hivite Nation)
5. Sexual Defilements (Jebusite Nation)
6. The Flesh Nature (Girashite Nation)
7. To Decide to seperate from others - unforgiveness (Perizzite Nation)
All these things are from the inside of the cup, when we Have Faith that God will Heal us of these the outter cup will be clean. But it's a Walk. It's a Saved, Being Saved Journey that the Goodness of God might bring more Repentance for we don't know what's in our heart - until he brings the enemies within to light where we can choose Him and hate the darkness!

Thank you sisters in Christ for commenting.. God laid it on my heart to do this.. and you know sometimes you think... Did I hear wrong??
But His Word is truth and life and light.. and health to all our flesh.. We can never ever go wrong in the Word.. Love to you all..
Mark 9:23 NIV "Everything is possible for Him who believes.". Oh these words.. are so precious.. Jesus is saying.. Come on.. just believe.. all I have is yours if you will only believe.. Believe what I have said.. Everything.. everything.. everything IS possible.. Just believe!!
I just got my Voice of Victory magazine last night from the Kenneth Copeland ministries, and there's a wonderful article on healing that might be a real blessing to you.
First you create an eConnection account with password and then you subscribe to the print magazine. I don't know if you can get this current issue right away, but it's worth a try. because the magazine is a gold mine of spiritual information and I promise you will be blessed by it.
Here are the opening sentences of the article by Gloria Copeland:
TAKE YOUR HEALING--BY FAITH!
TAKE IT! That's exactly what you have to do if you want to obtain healing. In fact, in every area of life obtaining the victory boils down to one thing: Just take God at His Word.
What He says--what is written in His Word--is the absolute truth and it really will work if we will only take hold of it.
The fact of the matter is, healing is no problem for the Lord. The only hard part is getting people to believe what He has said about it so they can receive their healing.
Peacechild: I would be happy to send you a xerox of this article, if you would trust me with your address. I will understand if you're not comfortable with that. Maybe I can send it to a neutral/public address, like a post office box or a place of employment. Or maybe you know someone who gets the magazine already and will let you borrow it.

Psalm 43:5 (King James Version) Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
There is no need of sadness or depression.. of the Spirit.. No... no.. no... go away we don't want you...
Why aren't we standing up and shouting out.. We have hope because of our GOD! We shall praise Him... Yes we shall praise Him..
God brings health to all of us... every part so that we glow with a noticeable radiance.. He is our God.. Our God.. Our God.. Our every bodily cell says this..
