7 Positive thoughts for healing from Bible



This post will give you fives positive quotes from the Bible regarding healing with brief comments of mine about each verse. Hope those will inspire you to believe that you can be healed. God bless you. 

Proverbs 12:18: “The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

Comment: Words have power to heal or bring diseases. Watch what your mouth speaks. You may bless or curse yourself with your own words.

Jeremiah 33:6: “‘Nevertheless, I will bring health and healing to it; I will heal my people and will let them enjoy abundant peace and security.”

Comment: Israel sinned against God and different afflictions and illnesses came to their lives. Nevertheless, God is good and He heals his people. 

Ezekiel 47:12: “Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing.”

Comment: This is a promise of redemption. Jesus died not only for our sins, but also for our diseases. Trust his redemption.

Matthew 4:23: “Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people.”

Comment: Take note that Jesus healed all manner of diseases and illnesses. That includes your trouble.

Luke 9:6: “So they set out and went from village to village, proclaiming the good news and healing people everywhere.”

Comment: Wherever good news is preached, diseases are healed. That is part of the gospel. 

Acts 10:38: “how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.”

Comment: A source of all diseases identified: it is the power of the devil. And Jesus breaks the power of the source by the power of the Holy Spirit. 

Psalm 103:2-3: “Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits— who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases…”

Comment: The Lord has a lot of benefits for you. It starts with forgiving your sins and continues with healing your diseases. The best part is that he forgives all of your sins and He heals all of your diseases. 

Conclusion:

Good is good and he has positive news for you. He wants to heal you. Physical healing is part of his redemption plan. Take courage, you are not forgotten. Pray to Him for deliverance and He will answer you. 

Yours with love,

Vytas.

Positive thinking and health


Positive thinking and health is the topic on the ‘Thought for the day’ blog today. Health is probably one of the greatest treasures that we can have. Take it away and you will probably be unhappy. I know that even being ill you can practice various aspects of positive thinking and by doing this make you feel better, but still ever remaining health problems reduce the quality of life and have negative influence on our emotions, results at work, possibilities to enjoy life. The good news is that by means of positive thinking we can improve our health. 

Positive thoughts bring health

You have probably heard doctors say that ninety nine percent of diseases are caused by our nerves. I think it is slightly exaggerated but it is very close to the truth. Your mental health very much depends on your reactions to problems and everything that happens around you on a daily basis. If you tend to react negatively to small problems that arise, you will surely have emotional problems. And emotional problems cause severe health problems as nothing else does. I am not a physician and I cannot present you a lot of facts to prove that I am right, but you can find a lot of material on internet to read on the topic and find out for yourself that bad emotions do a tremendous damage to your emotional and physical state. And vice versa, positive emotions do a lot to improve your health. 

But do not forget that both negative and positive emotions are the consequences of your thoughts. So, your thoughts are the cause and your emotions are the effect. Our body reacts to any emotion that we have. If you are laughing vitamin C is produced. A lot of people consume a lot of vitamins to maintain their immunity system working well and spend loads of money on that. Good news is that you can get some vitamins for free. Laugh more and you will never lack vitamin C. Tests show that our bodies do not differentiate between true laughter and fake laughter. They still produce vitamin C if we laugh. So, if you feel bad and do not find any logical or natural reason to laugh about, just do it. Just fake it. Laugh a bit. Maybe in the beginning it will look very unnaturally, but as you continue it will become a natural laughter. You will get a lot of vitamin C as a consequence. Of course, try to do it somewhere where nobody watches you. Just in case people consider you … . 

So, learn to control your emotions by controlling your thoughts. No negative thoughts = no negative emotions. Positive thoughts will bring a lot of good emotions. That will result in an increase of your health. As you can see positive thinking will help to increase your health a lot. Just be patient in learning how to control your thoughts. If you do not quit, after a year you will not recognize yourself. You will see so many positive changes in yourself. 

I hope you enjoyed the post. I encourage you to read a few other posts of mine on positive thinking:

Foundation for positive thinking


Foundation for positive thinking is the topic on ‘Thought for the day” blog today. There have been a lot of attacks on the value and power of positive thinking recently. Some people give a number of arguments trying to prove that positive thinking is simply not working, or creating unnecessary stress, or simply misleading and deceiving people. Some of the arguments can be justified. Positive thinking does not have any power if it does not stand on solid foundation. If it does not, it is merely a wishful thinking and as such it does not have any positive influence and results in our lives. But if it does stand on strong foundation, it really has tremendous power, which can create miracles. 

Positive thinking is based on faith and not logical thinking

Most people attack positive thinking because they see it as an illogical thinking pattern. They might be true, but positive thinking has its’ roots in faith, which is not built on logical facts, but on conviction that what you believe for exists in invisible world. We must accept the fact that material world is not the only world there is. There is a spiritual world and it is based on absolutely different principles than this material world is. In this visible world we base everything on facts that are gathered by means of five senses: seeing, sensing, smelling, hearing and tasting. Whatever does not go within the scope of those five is considered to be unreliable. However, if we take into account that spiritual world exists and it cannot be comprehended and explained and proved by means of five senses, then testimony of the five senses can be questionable. However, invisible and visible worlds are connected by means of our faith. When we believe that things which are invisible can come to visible reality, we bring them to pass. It is only a question of time, not the question of ‘if’. 

Positive thinking does not break natural laws

Most people fail to see the power of positive thinking because they neglect the fact that positive thinking does not break natural laws. Let me explain what I mean. You cannot expect to stay healthy if you constantly eat junk food and maintain a positive attitude that everything will be ok. If your immunity system is very strong and you are naturally very healthy from birth you may stay healthy longer, but by eating junk food you are destroying your body, which was given to you by God to take care of and not stuff it with various kinds of junk. If you neglect that and continue claiming that nothing wrong is going to happen this is nothing else but a wishful thinking, which has nothing to do with positive thinking. 

Positive thinking has to become an inseparable part of you

The problem with us humans is that we start doing something when we get into trouble. Most people try to use principles of positive thinking when problems come. However, it never works that way. Positive thinking has to be practiced daily. It has to become your second nature. You have to associate yourself with positive thoughts. You have to cut off all channels that fill your ears, eyes and mind with negativity and open up all the channels that deliver you a positive message on a daily basis. You have to look at things from a positive perspective daily. You have to be one with your positive thoughts. Then you will know the power of positive thinking.

I hope the post helped you to see what foundation for positive thinking is. I will be dealing with the topic in my future posts as well. So, keep coming to my blog and reading my daily posts.

Positive thoughts


Positive thoughts are the topic of my blog ‘Thought for the day’ today. We cannot talk about positive thinking, positive attitude or positive mentality without discussing importance of positive thoughts in developing these on a daily basis. In fact, it would be illogical to talk about positive mental attitude without understanding that thoughts are the foundation of any type of thinking, negative or positive. A set of thoughts constructs a certain paradigm or pattern of thinking, which later controls our lives. Thoughts are like bricks which you build your house of mind with. So, be careful how you build your house and be sure to use positive thoughts as bricks for your house. Of course, if you want your house to be strong. 

Positive thoughts carry positive energy

Most people look at thoughts as some inanimate objects that have no big influence on us. However, nothing can be further from the truth. Thoughts do carry energy which can be used to build your life or destroy it. It is quite obvious that positive thoughts carry positive energy which you can build your life with and see how everything around starts blossoming. On the other hand, negative thoughts are full of negative energy which can ruin your life if you continue dwelling on them for too long. 

Learn to monitor your thoughts

We cannot live with empty minds. There always is some thought in our mind and very often there can be quite many of them even at the same time. You have to study yourself and see which thoughts you can allow to stay in your mind and which you have to get rid of. By monitoring your thoughts you will understand yourself better too. So often we do not understand why we behave as we do. Most of us would like to get rid of some bad character features but are not able to. The answer to the problem lies in our thoughts. 

Get rid of bad thoughts by replacing them with good and positive thoughts

What do you do when you notice bad thoughts in your mind? You have to get rid of them. It is much easier said than done. How do you do it? You simply replace them with good and positive thoughts. It means you change direction of your thoughts. By concentrating on negative you allow negative thoughts to reign in your mind. By concentrating on positive you push all negative thoughts out and invite positive thoughts that immediately start changing your attitude, feelings and reactions to the things that can be of a very negative nature in themselves. 

Invite positive thoughts by looking at everything from a positive point of view

Most people do not understand how they can fill their minds with positive thoughts. That is not difficult at all. Just try to see every situation from a positive point of view. Let us say you have lost a job. It is a serious problem, right? However, this can also be a big opportunity for you to get a much better job or even start your own business and become financially independent. You can concentrate on that or you can start complaining and crying because you have lost your income. Some people when facing a problem immediately lose all hope and some even start drinking. Everything depends on your attitude. I would encourage you not to give in to negative thoughts and feelings, but concentrating on the bright side of life. You will see how this will help you to go through all hardships in life and get a better job.

There can be a lot of things that can be said about positive thoughts. I think I only scratched the surface of the topic. Therefore, I am going to update this post together with a few more posts which I consider to be very important. If you want to learn more on the topic I recommend reading a few of my previous posts:
