Do you know you are still in control of your health? Health has always been greater than wealth, although many people don’t see it that way. But when you are ill, you can’t work and you can’t enjoy your wealth either. I will never forget hearing about a wealthy person dying of cancer. How could this be? They had enough money to get the best healthcare, but guess what? Health is not just about what you can pay for, it’s also about healing spiritually and mentally. You can put all the best medicine inside of your body physically but if don’t address the spiritual and the mental you are essentially still sick. God created the body to heal itself, we are made of the body, soul (spirit) and mind, all three must work together to have ultimate health. So, while many have been more health conscious with the physical don’t forget to be conscious of the other areas in your life.
Understand that anxiety, stress, fear and worry can all weaken your immune system. You do not have to allow yourself to constantly be listening to negative, discouraging information. Create a schedule where you can have at least 20 minutes for yourself, no distractions, phones, internet, but can sit still and quiet and calm your mind. This will make a world of difference in your mental health when you can tap into inner peace. The most important thing you can protect is your health, money can come and go and when you don’t feel well, having the energy to pray may not be there, so take care of your health. Let go of past resentments, and issues. Did you know issues of the past, is one of the reasons many don’t really receive full healing? Just let it go, it happened, you can’t re-do the situation and replaying it in your mind is not healthy either. You can’t live “your best life” when you are holding on to unforgiveness, bitterness, resentment, hatred, etc. Every time you are going to replay the issues of the past, ask yourself is this making me healthier physically, spiritually and mentally? And that is with many things in life. If something, a habit, a thought is not making you better just don’t do it because it’s not worth it. Your health is your wealth.

God did not create us to be unhealthy in our minds, hearts, soul or body, in fact in the beginning, he said all he created was good, Genesis 1. You must hold on to what God already has given us and protect it. He provided all we would need through natural resources, through a relationship with him, through guidance by the Holy Spirit. God addressed all of your needs, physically, mentally and spiritually. So don’t let circumstances, the world or even yourself rob you of your health and what God has already given you. Take time and embrace what God has already blessed you with.
“Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. 3 John 1:2”
