God bless you for taking your time to study.
TOPIC: CARE FOR YOUR LIFE
TUESDAY NOVEMBER 29th
TEXT: ACTS 27:33-36
Key verse: Acts 27:34 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.
Some basic necessities are required for your health and carelessness in taking care or one's health could have consequences in future. For instance, some people may have accident today and fail to go for proper medical check-up, only to begin to experience effects much later in life when they go to the doctor to make complaints. Oh that you were wise at that time. Feed your body with appropriate food for your health. Be careful with fasting. If you persistently subject that body to a bad condition you shall find it so in future.
A particular pastor once 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 caught up with him. Now that you claim to have finished fasting, have problems also finished? Why did you finish your fasting so early? Have troubles of life that may warrant scriptural fasting and prayers also finished? Let your moderation be known to all men.
Be informed that if you fail to take proper care of this body today, it might be the reason why you may backslide tomorrow? When some sicknesses come on some people and the pain is too much to bear, they begin to accuse God. It was on account of Job's body that the wife asked him to curse God and die. If Job was not committed to righteousness, the case of his sickness was enough to make him angry with God. Do not wait until you become older and the body takes another shape because of the way you treated it yester years, and then you begin to accuse God or blame others. Do not engage in risky businesses that could bring ill health to your body and affect your performance. There are some businesses that may give you pneumonia or asthma due to exposure to dust, irritants or extreme cold weather. Be careful with your health.
Thought for the day: Take positive actions early in life to take care of your body
Song for the day: It is well with my soul
Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 41-42; 2 Peter 1
