Question from Missy - "I am hoping you can guide me on the most accurate Bible to meditate on. I have the ESV, NIV, KJV, and Amplified. I keep getting conflicting information. I hear verses are taken out of some or changed. The internet search I did was overwhelming. Thank you for your time and help."
Perhaps my answer to Missy will be helpful to you as well.

The book, Brushstrokes on HIS Masterpiece: From the Humiliation of Rape to Exaltation in Christ, which was just published by Sharon E. Hermitt, may be the only book on the market that describes in detail how such healing is obtainable through hearing God's voice, and letting Jesus walk you through the seven prayers that heal the heart. Sharon even discusses allowing God to speak to you through dreams and bring healing through dream interpretation. She applies the seven prayers to the healing of her sexuality and personality, and she shares many things the Lord spoke to her along the way, which has put her on the path of full deliverance.

Following is some journaling from Ronald Horst, a priest who has journaled for many years. This is the journaling he did after reading the blog on "Healing Emotional Trauma Is Foundational to Restoring Health."
When I developed cancer, I realized that there were five or six events that happened in my life like a tsunami, which l believe had lowered my immune system and had opened the door for cancer to flourish.
For many years I have known that emotional trauma is often the trigger for physical pain and illness. I have worked with two specific individuals who were both able to clearly trace the onset of cancer to unresolved emotional trauma in their lives. Traumas can leave us emotionally shattered, which turns off our immune system, which in turn allows disease and infirmity to take hold and flourish. Therefore it is crucial that we hear from God to heal all emotional upset, for emotions buried alive never die.
Note from Mark Virkler - I have pulled the summary statements concerning this prophetic word out of the message below and added them as an introduction - The main takeaway is that God is right now preparing us to take down every giant in our path in the days to come. There has been a lie that has been damaging – that darkness is incontestable - but we are called to be the light! Church, you are anointed and appointed to take down the giants of this hour!

Motivation to Move by Karen Sue Smith encourages the reader to engage in bodily movements as they meditate on Bible stories. The principle is that the more of our beings are involved in the learning process, the deeper it is. That is why biblical meditation beats western study. The definition of the words for meditation in the Hebrew and Greek include murmuring, speaking, imagining, mourning, roaring, and studying. God commands writing out of Scripture (Deut. 17:18), and prophetic actions are also recommended in the Bible (2 Kgs. 13:14-19).
