Today we are going to look at God’s perspective on health and nurturing our bodies. In 1 Corinthians 6, the Apostle Paul reminds us, "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body." Our bodies are not merely vessels, but sacred temples indwelled by the very Spirit of God. In other words, God finds his home in us. Psalm 103:2-5 beautifully expresses God's heart for our well-being: "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." God forgives, heals, redeems, crowns, blesses and satisfies us with health and strength. Our heavenly Father desires our health and wholeness. As we continue on this 21-day journey of prayer and fasting, let it be a time of not only spiritual renewal but also a commitment to stewarding our bodies in alignment with God's word. In 2024, let’s commit to honoring God with how we pursue health. This is not only limited to our physical health, but our mental health as well.
