"Well, if you do feel a little under the weather, what do you do?"

I said, "I just double up on the medicine.

I just double the dose. I double up on my Bible reading. And it works wonders!"

Chapter 3

GOD'S MEDICINE: TO BE APPLIED FROM THE HEART

God's Medicine, like all His provisions—salvation for instance—is to be believed and applied from the heart, the spirit.

What often happens though is this.

People read certain promises, perhaps they can even quote them, and they endeavor to act upon them without really getting them into their spirits. It's more in their heads than in their hearts.

I always do it this way. I don't pray about some things just right away. For example, in March of 1952 I was in a meeting in Texas City, Texas. Pat, our daughter, was a little girl at the time. She had developed a growth, not a sty, but a growth of some kind near her eye. Before I left home to travel to the Texas City meeting I had laid hands on her and prayed.

But when my wife wrote me on Monday, the growth was still there.

She wrote, "Pat wants to know what to tell the nurse when she comes around to check next Monday."

Once a month a nurse came around to the grade schools and checked their eyes and ears, etc. Pat knew that when the nurse found that knot she would ask if we'd taken her to a doctor. And we hadn't. So all Pat wanted to know was, "What am I going to tell the nurse?"

I received the letter on Tuesday and I knew I had a little time before I had to answer her. I pushed it out of my mind until after the evening service so my attention wouldn't be divided.

That night after the service I returned to my hotel, listened to the news from 10:00 to 10:15, turned off the radio, and at 10:15 I picked up my Bible and said to myself, I'm going to read the Bible for an hour on the subject of healing.

I daresay I could have quoted 90% of all the verses in the Bible on the subject of healing. They were all marked in my Bible.

But I started with the Book of Genesis and read these verses—very slowly—right on down through the New Testament.

At 11:15 I closed my Bible, turned off the light, and said, I'm going to lie here an hour and meditate on these Scriptures.

Or. Roy Hicks points out that one meaning of the word "meditate" in the Old Testament is "to mutter." That's what I did.

There in the nighttime in bed I muttered those Scriptures to myself.

At 12:15 I said to myself, I'm going to sleep for an hour, then I'm going to wake up and meditate on these Scriptures an hour.

Then I'll sleep an hour and wake up and meditate an hour until morning.

And I did that. The Holy Spirit dwells in your spirit. Your body needs rest and sleep, but really your spirit doesn't. I have an alarm on the inside of me.
