When suffering with something in the body there is a tendency to attend only to the body where the problem is, but the scriptures says that what you put in your inner man is just as important if not more important. Words have a significant effect on our whole being spirit, soul, and body. Like 3John 2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. What do you think you prosper your soul with, words. Notice, the health of your outer man is connected to your inner man. In Proverbs 15:30 it says, The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat. The words you take into your heart(not your blood pump) can have a powerful effect on your body. You see in Acts 14:7-10 And there they preached the gospel. 8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked: 9 The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed, 10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked. That confirms Proverbs 4:20-23 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. That word health is translated- medicine, remedy, healing, and cure.

Proverbs 14:30 says A sound heart is the life of the flesh. The condition of your heart, inner man, has an effect on your flesh. That's why Proverbs 18:14 says, The strong spirit of a man sustains him in bodily pain or trouble AMPC Version. What makes the spirit strong is the words you feed into it. You see in Matthew 12:34 that out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. And the words you speak are important in Proverbs 12:18 says, the tongue(words) of the wise is health (healing). Proverbs 16:24 says, Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. You see again words have an effect on your soul and body. Your words in line with God's word can bring healing to your body and that I know to be true by personal experience. So, I'm not just telling you something off the top of my head, but what I saw in the word and did and received healing. What you feed into your inner man is of vital importance that's why Proverbs 4:23 says, Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. That word keep some say guard your heart with all diligence, what do you think you guard your heart from, words. What you allow into your heart is of vital importance. There is even a thing called "Medical Student Syndrome" where medical students studying a disease and their bodies start experiencing the same symptoms of a disease they are studying. If those words going into a persons heart can have that kind of effect on their bodies, that's Proverbs 4:20-23 on the negative side. What you give your eyes and ears to is being fed into your heart. If those words can have that kind of effect how much more the word of God have the effect of healing on a body.

It is not God's will that any should perish. And I wouldn't want to end this article without giving someone the opportunity to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. It's very easy just pray: Dear God- I know I have sinned and I now turn from them and I invite Jesus to come into my heart (Revelation 3:20). He died for my sins and you have raised him from the dead and I now confess that Jesus is my Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9,10). I thank you for saving me, Amen

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12). 1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
