Don't get sick again!
The 2 systems
We are going to begin looking at two systems regarding the health of the physical body we each possess: the world’s system and God’s system.
But first, I want us to take note that the Bible clearly tells us our physical bodies were designed by God to experience health, and that sickness and disease were never a part of God’s will or plan for His human physical creation.
In the book of Genesis, we are told that after God had created this earth and everything in and on it and after He had created the human physical body on the sixth day, God was “very” pleased with what He had created:
“And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”
~ Genesis 1:31
If man had been designed for sickness and disease, God would never have called that physical body he had just created “very good.”
Animals in the wild, such as chimpanzees, do not get sick! They do not get diabetes, cancer, heart disease,
asthma, heartburn, arthritis, etc. Animals in the wild also do not take drugs. Animals in the wild don't go to the health club to work out. Yet without drugs, medical visits, surgeries, or formalized exercise routines,
animals in the wild have virtually no disease or illness and live three to five times longer than humans.
Sickness runs rampant today in both the Christian and non-Christian communities — and it is increasing with each passing year, despite the number of prayers being offered up to God.
In fact, in most churches today, some 90% of the prayer requests are for sickness… why?
God's Diet vs The World's Diet
If one were to compare the diet God gave to mankind in Genesis 1:29 with the World’s Diet of today’s averyou would find the difference as great as night and day!
The diet God gave His human creation in Genesis 1:29 contained no animal sourced foods of any kind; no refined sugar; no refined grains; no refined table salt; nor any caffeine. In Genesis 1:29 God clearly tells us that everything man was to eat for food was to come from the living plants found in the garden.
Almost every physical problem being experienced today is caused by the wrong foods we are eating… NOT by genes, germs, viruses or bacteria.
I like the way God put it in Galatians 6:7: “Brethren . . . be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”
So man puts into this glorious, God-made, physical body, foods never intended by God to ever enter it. And what happens as a result? Man gets sick!
