“Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones.”
Proverbs 3:7-8 NKJV
In this verse we learn that there is more to gain from obeying God than just spiritual blessings. Another natural byproduct of fearing God is that it will be of help to you physically. Now this doesn’t mean that you’ll be exempt from illness, but it does mean that the things that come from following God; like peace, joy, etc. will be of benefit to your physical health. Following God can give you a good outlook on life overall, which will put your body under much less stress. This is another part of God taking care of us as His children. As we obey God and trust Him then the less we become angry or sad or even stressed. This is because we have trusted God to make us into what He wants us to be. When we dwell in God’s will for us spiritually our psyche feels at peace, which in turn brings peace to the body.
