TOPIC: HOW DO YOU TREAT YOURSELF: Take care Of Yourself (6)
One Year Bible Reading:
Ezekiel 8 - 10
Hebrew 11: 7 - 40
MEMORY VERSE:
Mark 12:31.
"31. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none commandment greater than these."
BIBLE READING:
1 Timothy 5:23
"23. Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities."
Thinking Point:
No matter our ambition and vision, we need to take care of our body before it breaks down.
One of the aspects we do little about ourselves is our health; what we eat, when we sleep, resting time and our attitude with work. Most times, we break down before getting treatment. We apply faith concerning our health instead of treatment. You need to know that, our Fathers in the Lord do go for check ups too, they are guided by Professional Doctors on what to eat, drink, rest and even how many hours they can stand daily. Spirituality doesn't work without the physicality, Yes, it's a body that's well taken care of that can stand to minister. We've heard and seen ministers who died while ministering, wealthy men die untimely, the poor also die because of lack of care for their health, we need to be concerned about our health.
Apostle Paul was speaking to Timothy to take care of his health even when it involves taking a little wine, meaning, He also believes in treating oneself with medication. Apostle Paul would have directed him to start praying and fasting but No, he gave him treatment. Get the needed rest, treatment and eat well. Not all sickness you will hand over to God, many have died in this process. Treat yourself before getting sick. Follow instructions concerning your health as instructed by professionals. Watch how you use yourself and stop being overused. It'll cause you little when you treat yourself before breaking down. Eat well and sleep well, see the doctor if you can, it's high time we take our health seriously. Jesus understood the duty of physicians in the Bible, He said in Matthew 9:12,
“12. But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.”
So, it's not out of spirituality when you seek a doctor concerning your health. Go for check ups and treat yourself well. A living soul is the one that will testify of God's act. Do all things to make sure you are healthy.
God Bless you and Good Morning.
