A Source of Healing From God's Word........

Proverbs 4:20  Says this.....  My child, pay attention to what I say.    Listen carefully to my words.  

 I love the "pay attention" part.  God's word needs our undivided attention, without any distractions from the day, from work, from family or any other source.

The second part of the verse is also critical.  We have to listen carefully because I don't know about you, but I don't want to miss a word of what God has to say....not one word.   

Let's look at V. 21 also which says this:  (NIV)  Do not let them out of your sight,
    keep them within your heart;

One key of verse 21 in my opinion is a continued focus on the word of God, with our eyes and ears and brain.  And when we chew on a portion of scripture long enough it will be hidden in our hearts.  (Hopefully Forever)

 Then at that point we can claim Psalm 119:11 which says this:  "I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you."  

 Last but not least it's good to mention the benefits of obeying God's word.  Which is in Proverbs V. for they are life to those who find them and health to one’s whole body. 

Sounds to me like it's a good source of healing!  

God Bless You!!
