It's one thing to believe for, say, a financial miracle. After all, you're probably not forced to stare at your bank account all day long. But when it comes to believing for healing, it might seem harder.

Those physical symptoms are in your face constantly. So how do you believe God's promises for health when your body is saying something else—and it's talking loud and clear?

The thing is, you can't necessarily choose what your body is telling you... But you do have a say in the matter when it comes to what your heart says. And when you feed your heart with God's Word day after day, you start to believe in something that goes beyond the physical reality.It doesn't mean you ignore sickness. It just means you choose to put your focus on something else. What does that look like, practically speaking?

You could be driving to a doctor's appointment, but on the way, you're declaring what God's Word says about healing.

You might be taking medication or pursuing other remedies, but as you do, you speak the Word over your body.

When you get up in the morning, maybe the first thing you feel is aches and pains—but you choose to praise God and thank Him for His promises.

Based on Romans 8:11, you can say, "The same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in me, and He's bringing life to every single cell in my body."

Or declare, "The Lord is my refuge and shelter. No evil will conquer me and no sickness or disease can come near my home" (Psalm 91:9-10).

As you hear yourself speak in faith, something happens to your heart. Your focus changes... and gradually your deepest beliefs are transformed.

If you've been dealing with sickness, a doctor's diagnosis or long-term illness... we'd love to share something with you. It's a set of personalized declarations based on healing verses. Click here to download this month's Walk in the Word collection. Then make it part of your daily routine to speak these verses over your life and meditate on them.

The symptoms in your body present only one side of the evidence. In God's Word we find overwhelming evidence that says something else: Jesus came to bring you abundant life, overflowing with supernatural health. Start declaring it's yours!
