At present the amount of money spent by governments globally on drugs to make people healthy runs into billions of dollars annually and yet diseases run rampant worldwide in this planet that we live in. There is an ancient saying that states that, "a healthy nation is a wealthy nation".  Recently the National Health Service in Great Britain has been allocated an extra £40bn just to ensure that Great Britain becomes a healthy nation. It is important for us to understand that there is a mystery to health; a careful study of the book of Leviticus show us that we need God’s personality and principles to be healthy. Human medication can only at best hold down symptoms but it cannot provide health for the body.

Any serious student of the scriptures would notice that Jesus paid a lot of attention to restoring health to people’s bodies in his public ministry. There is no record in scriptures of any of the twelve disciples of Jesus being sick; this observation then poses a question to an enquiring mind. What is the secret of walking in divine health?

PRINCIPLES OF DIVINE HEALTH

Meditation

Daily deep thinking on the scriptures provides divine health for the body. It is highly essential to develop a habitual scriptural thinking into our lives to get and maintain divine health. Whatever dominates your thoughts dominates your life.

THINK IT TO REAP IT Proverbs 4: 20 – 22 & Proverbs 23:7

Prayer & direction

Prayer is a dialogue not a monologue, when you pray expect God himself to speak to you directly about your eating habits and lifestyle, then you will enjoy divine health.

READ IT TO REAP IT Isaiah 43:26, Jeremiah 33: 3, Psalm 32; 8 & 73:24

An ultimate lesson, which needs to be learnt, is that Divine Health only comes from the only true and living God and His principles.
