This Day Choose-Health or Disease

One of my posts, just a short time ago, was titled "The Body Toxic". In that posting I talked about our bodies and how they can become toxic, and then listed several symptoms which could indicate that our systems were in fact toxic. I have, since that posting, found myself studying and digging more and more into the "toxicity" of our bodies, and how we are effected by those toxins. It has been this study, that ultimately led me into other studies involving our health.

I have heard that the medical profession has been trained for "sick care" and not for "health care". A study, which was conducted at the Yale/New Haven Hospital, stated that 2,000,000 Americans find themselves hospitalized each year for "adverse reactions" from the side effects of drugs. These hospitalizations result in over 300,000 deaths. Can you imagine? Over 300,000 deaths from the side effects of "prescribed drugs"! These numbers do not include any deaths from unnecessary operations, necessary operations or other procedures administered by health professionals. It would almost seem, that more doctors, more surgeries, more drugs and more procedures have led to more disease and more death.


I would like for you to consider a Bible verse, from the book of I Corinthians:

“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God (your body), and that the spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God (allow or place anything harmful in it), him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.”
(I Corinthians 3:16-17)

I would also like for you to read the following verse, from the book of Hosea:

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…” (Hosea 4:6)

I have to believe it is our own lack of knowledge that has led us to sickness, and suffering when we did not have to. The majority of us have paid very poor attention to what we have allowed to enter our bodies. In this world there are only 2 systems operating. The first, of course, is the system of the world (drugs, surgeries, procedures) and the other is God's system of health (bringing total health by proper nutrition and the cleansing of the body). The truth today, is that over 97% of the people follow a very poor plan for feeding and caring for their bodies. Then once sickness and/or disease comes, they wonder how it has happened. The daily ingestion of toxins defiles our bodies, and later defiles our blood where they arrive. If you and I allow our bodies to be polluted by poor habits of eating and lifestyle, then our bodies will reap the "poor" results of those choices. Often, those results are destructive to our bodies.

Once we find that we have a sickness or a disease (the poor results), we rush to our doctors believing that surely they can prescribe a "drug" that will destroy the disease or alleviate the sickness. After all, the mindset of our medical professionals is - kill the virus, kill the bacteria, kill the disease, and kill the tumor. Did you know that you can't kill a "microbe" without killing a part of you along with it? I have read that medical students are really only taught 2 methods of treating disease. Method 1- you cut it out. Method 2- you destroy it with drugs, chemo or radiation. And, if one drug doesn't work---let's keep on trying, there are hundreds out there, surely one will work. While, all the time, most often they are only treating the "symptoms" and not the disease.

There is a very positive and effective method that has been found to prevent and reverse degenerative diseases. We must establish and support health by feeding our built-in and self-healing systems. In a healthy cellular environment, with a healthy immune system, the disease cannot survive. Again, we return to what we introduce or allow into our bodies. Does it support the bodies systems, or does it weaken them. In our bodies, it is either health or disease which will rule. Which is ruling your body today?

I don't know about you, but I believe that it is time that I commit to living the healthy lifestyle I know God would approve of. A lifestyle that will promote healing in my body, and allow me to live a full and long life, filled with vitality and energy. I welcome your comments, and until the next time, God Bless.
