hey sister!! How are you doing today?
How did day 2 go?
We find ourselves in Proverbs 3 again today. But before diving into verses 5ā8, I was also in Haggai this morningāand as God would have it, the message echoed the same truth:
ā”ļø Trust God.
Letās walk through Proverbs 3:5ā8 together.
Thereās a divine rhythm here:
āļø Trust in the Lord with all your heart
āļø Donāt lean on your own understanding
āļø Acknowledge Him in all your ways
āļø Turn away from evil
And what does God promise in return?
āIt shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.ā (Proverbs 3:8 KJV)
š” Think about that:
𧬠Bone marrow is the production center of our blood cells. Healthy marrow means healthy blood. And healthy blood is foundational to a healthy body.
š± The navelāour very first lifeline in the wombāconnects to the organs responsible for nourishment. Even after birth, the vessels around the navel still play a role in our digestive system.
God is not just giving poetic imagery here.
Heās revealing a biological reality:
ā”ļø Surrendering to Himā¦
ā”ļø Walking in the fear of the Lordā¦
ā”ļø Departing from evilā¦
ā¦is directly tied to our physical health and nourishment.
⨠To fear God is to flourish.
⨠To walk away from evil is to walk toward life.
⨠To trust Him with your path is to anchor your health in Him.
Your surrender isnāt just spiritualāitās biological.
And your healing isnāt just physicalāitās spiritual.
š¬ Letās Reflect Together
Take 2 minutes today and ask the Holy Spirit:
ā”ļø āLord, is there an area in my life where Iām still leaning on my understanding?ā
ā”ļø āIs there a place Youāre calling me to trust You more deeply?ā
