Take Care of Your Health


Our health is our greatest asset. If you lose your health, you lose your ability to be productive. Our body, spirit and mind are interconnected. Our body is not only where we live but it is also where God lives. If we don’t feel good, it will affect our spirituality.

A few days ago one of my friends told me, “Brother Sandy, will you please pray for me, I’m drawn to junk food easily.” Of course I prayed for my friend. But I also recommended not storing junk food in the house. When we discipline ourselves in what we eat and drink, we’ll develop new healthy habits. What we eat makes a great difference to how our body feels.

Another area that will greatly affect our health is exercise. We live in a very sedentary society. This is why it is very important to get some form of physical exercise on a regular basis. Don’t compare with others; just do what’s best suitable for you. Be committed and do it consistently.

Sleep not only makes you beautiful but it’s the best way to release stress which is one of the main causes of disease. Sleep is like rebooting your computer. When you wake up, everything works better. You’re not wasting time when you sleep; you’re energizing your battery. Sleep is nature’s way to heal your body.

Here’s a great promise from God’s Word for divine health in 2013: “You shall serve the LORD your God, and he will bless your bread and your water, and I will take sickness away from among you” (Exodus 23:25 ESV).
