Two keys to good health and a long life

Two keys to healing:

“Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones.”

Prov 3:7–8

Sometimes a deep truth can be stated simply – like here. It means that there can be blocks to prayer answers, as emphasized here in Proverbs. To be “wise in your own eyes” involves pride that we need to remove daily. To fear the Lord means that we live in open fellowship with Him and maintain the daily sanctification process: By the power of the Spirit, we eliminate sin in our lives that the Spirit of God reveals (Rom 8:13). And here is the promise from God’s word:

“It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones.”

Has it ever dawned on you: Godliness has to do with health and a long life? By living a holy life for God, we will experience God’s power being released. The promise here entails power and health for skeletal issues (“strength to your bones”) and healing for internal and external parts of the body (“health to your flesh”).

Godliness holds great promises of good health and a long life:

“The fear of the Lord prolongs days, But the years of the wicked will be shortened.”

Prov 10:27

But – we must not become so focused on the mistakes we make that we lose faith in God’s ability to perform miracles in our lives. Jesus healed all types of people from different backgrounds. It was not angels He healed, but ordinary, sinful people with faults and shortcomings.

“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”

Heb 4:16

Be bold, come to God with your problem! But do not forget to live in a right relationship with Him.
