What isHealth?

V14 : I KNOW THAT, WHATSOEVER GOD

DOETH, IT SHALL BE FOREVER:

NOTHING CAN BE PUT TO IT NO ANYTHING TAKEN FROM IT, THAT MEN

SHOULD FEAR BEFORE HIM.

V15 : THAT WHICH HATH BEEN IS NOW; AND THAT WHICH IS TO BE HATH ALREADY

BEEN; AND GOD REQUIRETH THAT WHICH IS PAST.

ECCLESIASTES 3:14, 15

Jeremiah 10:23, 24

V23: O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh

to direct his steps.

V24: O Lord, correct me, but with judgment: not in thin anger, lest thou bring me to

nothing.

PROVERBS 14:12

There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

Ecclesiastes 7:29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.

THE VALUE OF HEALTH

Health in itself is not regarded as an ultimate value but used as a means to an end. It is only when health fails that every conceivable method is employed to restore it, in spite of the in inconveniences and costs involved.

How important is your health? Do you value it? Are you doing all that you can to maintain and preserve it?

WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF HEALTH?

Is it……”A complete state of physical, mental, and social well being and not merely the absence of disease” as stated by the World Health Organization (WHO)

Or as the Bible states, “And Jesus increased in wisdom (mental) and stature (physical) and in favor with God (Spiritual) and man (social). “ Luke 2:52

A sa tubu cake ko Jisu ena vuku kei na yagona talega, a sa vinakati koya vakalevu cake tikoga na Kalou kei ira talega na tamata.

CONT’

The difference between the two is the former excludes the spiritual while the latter includes it. Human beings regardless of their status in life, have a need for spirituality. We were created with this because our Creator wants to be part of our existence.

C. FOUR DIMENSIONS OF HEALTH

Spiritual-That which has to do with our relationship

with our Creator, we need to understand that our health is a special gift given to us by our heavenly Father.

Mental- That which has to do with our mind, the mind

has tremendous power in itself and harnessing this power towards the promotion of health is the science we need to study.

CONT

Social-That which has to do with our relationships

with others, remember “no man is an island!” We all need each other.

Physical-that which has to do with our body in

general, we need to understand how our body functions so we can look after it properly.

D. IMPORTANCE OF THE FOUR DIMENSIONS

State of Mind-Mind should be free from guilt, guilt makes

us sick, mind and heart should be happy, sadness brings sickness, Deut. 28:65, 66; Prov 28:13, Prov 17:22

State of physical body-Keep body physically fit with exercise,

proper nutrition, and rest. Our body is a living sacrifice/template for the Holy Spirit, 1 Cor. 3:16, 17; Rom. 12:1

CONT

Spiritual life-a carnal mind is death but a spiritual mind is

Life and Peace. Strife to maintain a connection with the source of Life, God Himself- Rom 8:6

Social Life-Love thy neighbor as thyself, act of

benevolence is healthful. Apply the golden rule all the time- Matt 22:37 – 39

E. DEFINITION OF HEALTH

Health is not just a mere absence of illness or infirmity. It is a complete and balance state of the Spiritual, Mental, Physical, and Social dimensions of our well being.

The four dimensions of health must be in place in order to have optimum health!

F. TO BE HEALTHY IMPLIES!

Making new decisions, choices, preferences

Changes in lifestyle, behavior, habits

Understand difference between facts and myths, truth and error

Self-denial, sacrifices

G. GOD’S DESIRE FOR YOU

Beloved I wish above all things that thou mayest proper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” 3 John 2

“….I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” John 10:10

HEAVEN’S ONLY REMEDY FOR HEALTH

There are many ways of practicing the healing art, but there is only one way that Heaven approves. God’s remedies are the simple agencies of nature, that will not tax or debilitate the system through their powerful properties. Pure air and water, cleanliness, a proper diet, purity of life, and a firm trust in God are remedies for the want of which thousands are dying; yet these remedies are going out of date because their skilful are requires work that the people do not appreciate.” -5 Test, page 443

MINISTRY OF HEALING

The only hope of better things is in the education of the people in right principles. Let physicians teach the people that restorative power is not in drugs, but in nature. Disease is an effort of nature to free the system from conditions that result from a violation of the laws of health. In case of sickness, the cause should be ascertained. Unhealthful conditions should be changed, wrong habits corrected. Then nature is to be assisted in her effort to expel impurities and to re-establish right conditions in the system. {MH 127.1}

“Our first duty, one which we owe to God, to ourselves, and to our fellow men, is to obey the laws of God, which include the laws of Health
