TOPIC: YOUR BODY IS AS A BUILDING HOUSING YOU
TEXT: PROVERBS 3:13-24
MONDAY NOVEMBER 6TH
Key verse: Proverbs 3: 13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
Your body protects you as a building. The main person in that building is yourself, but the building is important because it plays its own role, otherwise, how will you be sheltered from the sun, wind, and rain? How will you be protected from evil workers and evil men? How will you have real rest without a house? Your body is your house. If you get that body damaged, it will affect your inner parts and the enemy may take occasion of it to affect your spirituality. That is why some thieves, when they want to enter in to operate against you, they have to break through the house, and some will dig from outside and dig down the wall of the house. So, be very careful and watch over your body. That is why some have watchmen over their houses. A big man living inside his house employs watchmen to watch over the house. Actually, they are not watching over the house but watching over him and the family members or other inhabitants in the house because, if the enemies break through the house, they will have access to them.
Your body may inhibit some spiritual activities in your life or may even terminate your life on earth. Hence, you are required by God to take care of your body. You need to have knowledge of things and ways required to preserve your body. Knowledge of medicines in the maintenance of your body as a holy believer is essential in order to live well, for a prolonged life, and service to God on this earth. If you have a disturbing stomach that has not left you with all your prayers and others praying for you, and you do not take medicine to arrest it in your body, you will not be able to rise or stand in the pulpit with a biting stomach ache. 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 of the cataract coming up in your eyes which you have not bothered to go for medical treatment? Your usefulness in life will be limited.
Thought for the day: Do all that is just and right to keep your body healthy.
Song for the day: My head, my shoulders, my knees and toes (3x), they all belong…
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 43-45; Hebrews 3
