The Bible teaches that physical and spiritual well-being are intertwined, with God desiring His people to thrive in all aspects of life. In 3 John, the apostle prays for believers to prosper in body and spirit, while Mark records Jesus' disciples healing the sick and casting out demons. The Gospels, such as Matthew, show Jesus Himself bearing the physical infirmities of others, exemplifying God's care for human health. Additionally, James instructs the church to pray for the sick, and 2 Samuel highlights the importance of acknowledging God as the source of all healing and wholeness.
