The responsibility of proper care for our bodies and soul is a very important part of GOD'S ministry on earth. He expects us to carry out the work of the ministry with a sound mind and healthy body. GOD knows that we cannot do as much when we are down either in illness or sickness. The propagation of the ministry can only be as effective as the people given the responsibility and sometimes what hinders is poor health due to personal negligence.
The triplicate ministry of our LORD JESUS CHRIST Is deduced from teaching, preaching, and healing. Matthew 4:23 confirms that wherever Christ went he established his mission through miracles which were emblems of the healing power of his doctrine and the influence of the spirit which accomplished it. We still have to praise GOD for his miraculous healing power in our bodies even when we are cured after taking medicine. The three general words were also used He healed every sickness or disease none was too bad or too hard, for CHRIST healed with his word psalm 107:20 *He sent forth His word and healed them, he rescued them from their destructions." There are three main diseases that are very destructive to the body and soul, the palsy which is the greatest weakness of the body, lunacy which is the greatest malady of the mind, and possession by the devil, which is the greatest mystery and calamity of both, yet CHRIST healed all. With him by curing all diseases that affect the body. He showed that his great errand into the world was to cure spiritual maladies. Sin is the sickness, disease and torment of the soul. CHRIST came to take away our sins to heal the soul which then nurtures the spirit for the sustainance of the body.
"To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family;to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's mind." Brainy quote.
