God the Father is Medicine

faith and fit 90 challenge healing Jan 31, 2023

Today’s Task Reading:

This week we will focus on the various ways we can receive healing. Today we will discuss how God the Father is medicine for our sickness and diseases. One of the main reasons why God the Father is medicine for our body, soul, and spirit, because He keeps all His promises, and that gives us hope (Deuteronomy 7:9). Fortunately for us, hope makes our heart glad (Psalm 16:9). Proverbs 17:22 says a cheerful heart is good medicine.

The second reason God the Father is medicine. He has given us the 1st line of defense against disease with green leafy vegetables and herbs (Genesis 1:12). God said herbs are excellent for treating as well as preventing diseases (Revelation 22:2). Moreover, God said fruit and leaves are great for healing (Ezekiel 47:10). So if anyone is sick, seek God 1st and then send them to herb shop.

Most importantly, God is our healer (Exodus 15:26). God heals us and forgives us (Psalms 103:3). All we need to do is cry out to God for help, and He will help us (Psalm 30:2).

Today’s Prayer:

God, You reign forever and ever in the heavens and on earth. We are so thankful for You. You deserve all the glory, honor, and praise. Let Your kingdom come and will be done in our lives. When we need medicine for our body, soul, and spirit, we can come to You. Your promises give us hope and make our heart glad. Thank you for creating leafy vegetables and herbs and fruits for healing. You always provided many ways for us to receive our healing. Guide us to the way that will best help us receive healing. Thank You for hearing our cry and healing us. Give us knowledge, wisdom, and understanding we need to heal effectively. Help us to take the necessary steps to heal. We ask You to forgive us for all our debts, trespasses, and sins as we forgive our debtors and those who have trespassed and sinned against us. Lead us not into temptation. Help us to be equipped with the full armor of God as You deliver us from evil. For Yours is the Kingdom, Power, and Glory. In Jesus Name, I pray. Amen.
