TAKE ADEQUATE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH
TUESDAY JUNE 20
TEXT: ACTS 27: 33 – 36
Key Verse: “Wherefore I pray you to take some meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you” Acts 27: 34
You need to have knowledge of things and ways required to preserve your body. Knowledge has increased, that’s why we need to have knowledge of medicine, because your body needs it to be preserved. It is essential to avail yourself of appropriate medical care in times of need. If you allow that stomach ache there, you cannot rise up, you won’t be able to stand up in the pulpit. Can you? With a biting stomach ulcer? You cannot move because your body has been affected. What if an accident happens and they have to amputate your leg? Brother, automatically many things about the gospel will be limited in your life. What if you were to lose your eyes, because Cataract is coming up in your eyes and you don’t bother? Your usefulness in life has been affected. What if you lost your teeth? Come, is it a good thing when somebody stands speaking and the teeth are not in order? Limited number of people will hear you. Some human beings are easily irritated by little things. If you fail to attend to some of these things, then you have reduced the number of congregation that will hear you.
Take care of that body. Keep it well. Do that which is just to it. Feed your body with appropriate food for your health. Be careful with fasting. Don’t be so power – driven to the point of destroying your body. There are principles in life. Whatever a man sows, he shall reap. Subject that body to a condition and you shall find it so. A particular pastor said, ‘I have finished all my fasting!’ I asked, ‘How did you finish your fasting?’ He explained that he went on marathon fasting as a young preacher, until stomach ulcer carried him, so he said that he has finished all his fasting! So, demons also have finished? Why did you finish your fasting so early? Have problems of life also finished? Let your moderation be known to all men.
Thought for the day: Healing and good health are for God’s children.
Song for the day: Somebody touched me (2x), Somebody touched my soul, while I was praying….
Bible reading for the day: Nehemiah 12-13; Acts 4:23-37

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
