In Scripture, physical well-being is often linked to spiritual vitality, with God desiring wholeness for His people. The prophet Jeremiah cries out to God as the "healer" of his soul, seeking restoration (Jeremiah 17:14), while the apostle John expresses his wish for a friend's good health in 3 John 1:2. The Bible also promises that God will bring health and healing to those who follow Him, as seen in Exodus 15:26 and Jeremiah 33:6, where He is the one who heals and restores. Additionally, Proverbs 17:22 notes the importance of a joyful heart in maintaining good health.

Beloved, I pray that in every way you may prosper and enjoy good health, as your soul also prospers.
Nevertheless, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal its people and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.
saying, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God, and do what is right in His eyes, and pay attention to His commands, and keep all His statutes, then I will not bring on you any of the diseases I inflicted on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you.”
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body.
So you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take away sickness from among you.
Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and turn away from evil. This will bring healing to your body and refreshment to your bones.
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God.
