With regards to health, you can liken the word of God to medication. You are expected to take your medication as prescribed by your physician if you want a positive result. Symptoms may persist for a while but you have faith in the medication. You usually continue taking the medication for at least three days before you conclude that it is not effective. God is the greatest physician and he is willing to heal at all times. He only wants you to take his word as prescribed.
Proverbs 4:20-22 -“My son, attend to my words; incline your ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart, for they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh”.

Testimonies
Testimony 1
There was a time that I developed back ache and so I asked my husband to apply liniment to ease the pain. However, the pain became so bad that I felt the pain as I breathed. The following day, I woke up with severe pain and I thought to myself “why don’t I take some analgesics?” Then I thought that I should be able to believe God for all things.
Almost immediately, I changed my mind and started confessing the word of God. I was healed by the afternoon. I initially thought it was a bad mattress causing the problem but I later found out that it was because I was sleeping on two mattresses at the same time. I rectified the situation and the back ache did not return. God did two things, he healed me and then he showed me the cause of the problem to prevent reoccurrence. If you learn to believe God for little things, it will not be difficult to believe him for big things.
Testimony 2
There was another time that I started having symptoms of urinary tract infection. I felt pressed to go to the toilet and all I passed was a tiny amount of urine and the process was painful. The pain continued in the lower part of my abdomen. I have had this symptom several times in the past, and I only felt better after taking a course of antibiotics. I had to make a decision whether to get antibiotics, or stand on the word of God.
As a medical doctor, I knew that in the physical the infection could only settle down with antibiotics. I however decided to meditate on the word of God which says that “by the stripes of Jesus, I am healed”. The pain continued but I did not give up. Later on, the intensity of the pain began to subside and in approximately 4 hours, the pain had gone. The next time I went to the toilet I passed urine freely and it was pain free. The following morning the pain came back and immediately I spoke the word of God “by the stripes of Jesus I am healed” and the pain disappeared instantly and that was the end of the infection
I want to you to know and believe, that the word of God does not return to him void until it has accomplished what it has been sent to do.
Isaiah 55:11 - “So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it”
The word of God will accomplish great things and prosper in your life in Jesus name. Continue to meditate on the word of God, confess it and your transformation will soon be evident to all.
