Scriptures Referenced
What spirit dwells in your belly has a real and dramatic effect on your belly.
Earlier I quoted the passage that said the words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
If the spirit of fear and anxiety dwells in your belly it can cause things such as ulcers, skin disorders, nervous stomachs, heart attack and more.
This should come as no surprise. Also, note that the scriptures refer to cognizance in the bowels of a human.
Keep in mind the little brain goes from the oesophagus to the colon.
GOD SAID, thousands of years before science discovered its relevance, that the spirit dwells in the belly, that it leads and guides and instructs and that the bowels have cognizance
The heart has nearly 2 billion muscle cells and 40,000 neurons. The heart neurons are very few in number compared to those in the brain (100 billion) or gut (100 million). Nevertheless, these neurons transmit the heart’s signals and its condition to the brain.
The magnetic field produced by the heart is more than 5000 times greater in strength than the field generated by the brain
The electromagnetic energy of the heart not only envelops every cell of the human body but also extends out in all directions in the space around us
When the Stomach Talks, the Brain Listens
It turns out that “butterflies” and that “sinking feeling” in the stomach have a neurological basis. Neurons lining the stomach are filled with neurotransmitters, chemicals that help nerve cells communicate with one another. One key neurotransmitter is serotonin, which plays a major role in mood regulation.
While serotonin is also found in the brain, 95% of the body’s supply is in the stomach. This abundance explains why drugs like Prozac, known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), help elevate mood by increasing serotonin levels but may also cause stomach disturbances.

Now, THE RECORD. December 1996 in the Ladies Home Journal, in an article titled, “How Smart is Your Stomach?,” it was reported that scientists now believe there is a brain in your gut. Dr. J. D. Wood, chairman of the Physiology Department at Ohio State University, actually calls the brain in your gut, “the little brain.”
This belly brain is really quite large, touting 100 million neurons which line the digestive tract from the oesophagus to the colon. The brain in the gut, which is scientifically termed the enteric nervous system, has as many neurons (which are information centres) as the spinal cord. The following paragraph in the article reveals some very interesting observations:
The little brain is connected to the “big brain” by the vagus nerves, a bundle of nerve fibres running from the GI tract to the head. And, to the fascination of researchers, virtually all the classes of neurotransmitters found in the brain are also present in the gut. “The more we learn about the enteric nervous system, the more similar it seems to the brain,” says Michael Gershon, M.D., chairman of anatomy and cell biology at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, in New York City.
Imagine your “belly brain”…the little brain…can know something before the brain between your ears does. The concept of gut feeling is known by all. A paediatrician was giving instruction to new parents in an article in Parenting Magazine and he said, “The best advice I can give you is to trust your gut. It’s your best tool.”
