        I identified 6 things we can do if we need healing from something. All of these verses are good for healing from physical ailments as well as healing from bad habits.

        Jeremiah 17:14 ESV Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for you are my praise.”
        First, praise the Lord more often. In this verse the prophet connected healing with praise.
        1 Peter 2:24 ESV He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.
        Second, think about and focus on righteousness more often. In this verse Peter connected healing with righteousness.
        Psalm 147:3 ESV He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”
        Third, I can be excited about worldly things, or I can be brokenhearted since the world is a mess. Or brokenhearted because of sin. When we repent, mourn our sin and live in a brokenhearted way, good things begin to happen.
        Psalm 103:2-4 ESV Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,”
        My dad thanked God for everything. He told everyone about the great benefits of being a Christian. His health was great till he was late in his 90’s.
        James 5:16 ESV Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.”
        I always try to be more righteous. It is hard, but I will keep trying. When we increase in righteousness, our prayers increase in power.
        Exodus 15:26 ESV Saying, “If you will diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, your healer.”
        Do right, know the commandments, keep the commandments. This verse is a great formula for quitting habits. The more we try to do these things, the weaker our habits hold will be on us.
        Several things to work on.
