“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: Fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, And marrow to thy bones.”
If I were to offer to you a pill that could add years of productive living to your life, I would assuredly be a very rich man. Why? Well we are always looking for ways to improve our lives and to add time to our stay here on earth. Our word today shows us that if we pursue God with our whole heart, we shall have health in our lives. You see there is a direct connection between our physical health and our spiritual health.
I have known people who got ahold of the principles of the kingdom, surrender their lives and saw a marked improvement in their quality of life. I mean they began to operate with more peace, more joy and love in their lives and saw a bounty of happiness they never had before. Many these were in spite of the fact they still had tribulation show up on occasion. We need to seek God’s wisdom, his ways and his counsel. When we do, we open the door to a life that surpasses the ordinary and the mediocre and takes us to the high places of God’s kingdom.
Want to be healthy? We can start by pursuing a life founded on God and his word. Our spirit will soar and our bodies will improve as our attitude grows in his riches !
In Christ
