He Wants You Vibrant And Strong
Beloved, I wish above all things
that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth [ 3 John
1:2]
One of the ways to improve your
health is making sure you have a good enough rest for your physical body, and
good sleep has a role to play in this. It’s recommended to sleep for a certain
number of hours every day. Although some people say, “There are days that I
sleep throughout; and then other days, I just stay awake.” That isn’t a normal
lifestyle. If you’re that way, always cutting back on sleep, then you’ve got to
reorder your lifestyle.
You’re not supposed to go on for
several days without sleep, hoping to make up by sleeping eventually
twenty-four hours. That’s not going to work. Over time, chronic insomnia could
drastically affect your health. God made day and night on purpose. Night has a
cooling effect on the natural body. The biological effect of night is to cause
you to sleep, to create the instincts of sleep, yet some people will still not
want to give in to sleep. Such lifestyle isn’t good for your health, and could
even impact your eyes negatively.
The Bible says, “… wherewith ye
may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not
hear” [ Isaiah 28:12]. Can you see that?
He wants you to be vibrant, healthy, and strong. Therefore, He’s telling you
that a good rest is a way to improve and
extend your health; it’s a way to care for your physical body. Some people
leave the responsibility of caring for their physical body to God; but your
body is your house, and you’re the custodian of it. So, you must take care of
your body.
Many get sick because they ignore
simple routines like a proper rest and physical exercises. The bible says
bodily exercise profits little; it doesn’t say that it profits nothing. It’s
important that you learn to keep your body healthy and strong; ensure proper
hygiene, and don’t wear our your body from excessive labour. Keep your body in health, through the
consistent application of the Word of God, and some basic health regimen. Make
your body healthier so you can serve God better!
Confession
Divinity is at work in me, in
every fibre of my being, every cell of my blood, and in every bone of my body!
I refuse to let sickness dominate in my body, for my body is the temple of the
living God, and that same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in me!
I’m guided by wisdom to offer my body as a living sacrifice unto God! I live in
health today, and always! Hallelujah!
