Dear <<First Name>>,
In the UK we've got a heatwave. Everyone's trying to keep cool in soaring temperatures. This is a trend worldwide. We all need to shelter in God!

Health and restoration

Return and tell Hezekiah the leader of My people, "Thus says the Lord, the God of David your father: 'I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; surely I will heal you.'"

2 Kings 20:5 - NKJV

Doctors - well-qualified, medical practitioners - are God's compassion on the people of the world. The people of the Christ's church also find help with them from time to time. Yet, as we grow in faith and Christian understanding, we access more of the health and healing brought to us by Christ. We start to need the doctors less. No matter what your situation at present - whether you're often at the doctor's or very seldom - be sure you make the primary prescription of your life the Word of God! Prov.4:22.

The 1985 sci-fi film Cocoon is like a metaphor for the health found in the words of God. In the film a group of residents from a retirement home plunge into the water of a neighbour's swimming pool. Little do they know that pods from a distant world called "cocoons" are in it and the water itself contains a life force for the benefit of the cocoons. The old folks of the retirement home plunge into this water designed to sustain those cocoons. To their astonishment, they experience a renewing of youth. They partake of its life force. They are renewed, even healed, by the life force in the water. What a vivid picture we have in this of what the water of God's Word can do for us! Psa.107:20.

God's Word is a container of spirit and life for you. Immerse your spirit in God's Word and the force of eternal life will come on you for the maintaining and restoring of life and health in every area of your existence - physical, mental and emotional. Get apart every day for a session in God's Word. Immerse yourself fully in it at some time each day! His Word will be to you life and health. God's words are a curative, a medicine, for you! Joh.6:63.

Immerse yourself in the healing water of God's Word
