Healthy ~ Part 1

Is your family generally healthy?  Do you come down with the flu or colds and catch everything that people are passing around the stores, churches, or schools?

This is a series about how to stay healthy. 

First, we believe the Bible.  You have to believe what God says AND put it into practice.  That can be very difficult when it comes to our health or the health of our kids!  A lot of people immediately want to run to the doctor.  When they get there, they expect a prescription and unfortunately a lot of doctors give in.  Some doctors don't ~ that's good!

Faith means nothing without action.  How much faith do you have?

The first place to start is with Scriptures and, in later posts, I will list vitamins and talk about eating habits.  Wisdom is in His Word.  The beginning of knowledge is the fear of the LORD, Yahweh.

The PINK are promise words:

Proverbs 1:7  The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; Fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Proverbs 3:7-8  Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and turn away from evil.  It will be healing to your body and refreshment to your bones.
(That is enough to keep you busy for the rest of your life!)

Proverbs 16:24  Pleasant words are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
(NO negative thoughts or words!!!!)

Exodus 15:26  And He (Yahweh) said, "If you will give earnest heed to the voice of the LORD your God, and do what is right in His sight, and give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I, the LORD (Yahweh), am your healer."

James 4:14-16  Is anyone among you sick?  Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. 

Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed.  The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
