Derek Prince speaks from personal experience when he asserts that there is healing in God's word. He himself was miraculously cured of an untreatable condition by embracing the truth contained in Proverbs 4:20-22.

This thin volume goes step-by-step through that passage to explain how paying attention to the word of God and taking it in like medicine can be more effective than any drug or surgery in treating our diseases and physical disorders. A totally unexpected approach to physical healing--and one which is grossly neglected in Christendom. I recommend this book for anyone who struggles with chronic physical illness, as well as those who work in the medical field.

One of the better small Derke Prince books, but not without it flaws - it is actually one of those that will show us what I dislike about Prince. He tends to only look at the Bible for his answers favoring simple trust in the Bible in favor of advanced medical science - as if they are not in alignment. When he says something like that sometimes there is something that comes up that only God can heal(talking about his own eczema) then simple belief in the Bible is the only solution - but the problem is he already disbelieves medicine in order to know that it is a thing that only God can solve. (My idea about things only God can heal is the Heart - something he did in Prince case because his experience here lay the foundation for the rest of his life. For me that is God in the works, not simply because he wanted to heal Prince physically.) That sentiment is for me not very good although trusting God is. So, this book gives some ways of using God's word as your medicine, which is all good. It is a simple read based on a simple idea, that works seemingly well theologically. Most of all though, I like how he here takes one point and nails it down.

" كنت مريضا و الفلسفة لم تشفنى ، لذلك كنت حقا أواجه اختيارين واضحين : يمكننى أن أكون ذكيا و ابقى مريضا أو اكون بسيطا فأشفى ، شئ واحد كنت سعيدا به أكثر من أى وقت مضى و هو أننى أصبحت بسيطا بما فيه الكفاية لانال الشفاء "
الفقرة دى تعتبر اكتر حاجة قريتها بتشرح " بساطة الايمان " اللى بقينا بنفتقدها جدا .

Short but singularly focused

Derek Prince never minced his words and in this book he made a sharp and short case for the power of the Word if God to penetrate and heal areas we can’t touch with modern medicine.

Short, simple, and profound. Prince breaks down Proverbs 4:20-22 and shares his own experience of praying healing with those verses. Very cool way to see the practical use and his own experience with the scripture passage.

Loved it

I loved the simplicity of this book, I recommend reading it, there is certainly something natural about it, it makes you question life as we know it or what our beliefs are, where and why have we lost our connection to God?

Take As Prescribed

This title presents the truth…that if we follow Gods word to the letter, what ails you disappears. You need unwavering faith and dedication to see results. Highly recommended.

In a world where we run to the Dr before we run to God, and where unbelief is rampant, this small book with encourage you to come back to believing that God DOES want to heal you. Jesus said He had come to give us abundant life. It's time we start living it.

Outstanding book about God’s Word

Derek Prince shows, from his own experience and God’s Word, how important the Bible is for the Christian’s life. I came away very encouraged about how to approach Bible reading and study in the future.

Comes from a doctor. Also from the author's age, he is 88 when he died, quite a long age in the earth. Here in this book, he unveiled the secret of long life, a secret for healthy in all things.

Short and to the point. Prince likens reading the bible daily to taking medicine. This medicine is however from God and is powerful and effective to meet all your needs, physical and spiritual. Sometimes (but not always) praying for healing is like going to a doctor and him telling you take these pills three times a day for two weeks and you'll be better, but not taking them and then wandering why we're not healed. God has given us his medicine bottle and if we take it as prescribed, then it will it work.

This is a good and concise book for beginner's who are finding a way into Jesus. The author, through his relatable life experiences and relevant bible verses makes us understand the fundamentals of faith and tuning into Jesus. The recap exercises were good too, helped me sum up the learning and reading experience.
