My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. Don’t lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body. Proverbs 4:20-22 (NLT)
When things seem to happen effortlessly for you in a certain area, you can bet that your heart holds positive beliefs about that area of your life.
For example, if you are healthy and you have always taken good care of your body, your heart likely holds great beliefs about health. On the other hand, if you constantly struggle in an area, it’s time to take a look at what you believe. If you struggle to build strong relationships, your heart-beliefs about relationships must be faulty.
Miracles happen when your heart beliefs agree with God’s promises. Proverbs 4:20-22 communicates this power contained in God’s words, saying, Let them penetrate deep into your heart, for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body (NLT). But how do you let God’s words penetrate into your heart?
When you take the time to really grasp a promise from God, you literally bring miracles into your life. It’s as though your heart connects you to the promise. Although the promise was made thousands of years before, getting into agreement with it releases or attracts the promise into your life.
If there are promises in God’s Word that you are not receiving, change what you believe in your heart. Study and think about the promise until your heart is fully convinced.
