ADAR 6
Healthy Eating Habits
“I
have not gone back from the commandment of His lips; I have esteemed and
treasured the words of His mouth MORE THAN my necessary food.” (Job 23:12 AMPC, emphasis mine)
Americans, as a majority, are
known for unsound eating habits and questionable diets. The term “junk food junkie” originated in the
United States, which is also home to the many varieties of so called ‘junk
food’. It is no small wonder that of the
different health problems millions of Americans suffer from, many are weight
and diet related. We simply do not have
healthy diets, and it is a ‘discipline’, unfortunately, that many of us have
forgotten. As I write this, please do
not feel that I am pointing fingers at anyone.
Abba Yahweh is dealing with me first,
concerning my own physical diet.
We cannot afford to forget this
discipline in the spiritual realm, either.
We are what we eat, both in the natural, and in the spiritual. If we choose to consume a high calorie, high
carbohydrate diet of junk food, then we must expect to pay the penalty for
it. The same principal applies in the
spiritual: if we choose to consume a diet high in excessive carnality, low
morals, feeding the flesh instead of the spirit, we will reap what we have
sown.
“For
he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature, sensuality) will from the flesh
reap decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit will from
the Spirit reap eternal life.”
(Gal 6:8 AMPC)
The answer is always the Word of our Elohim, the
Scriptures, the Torah …
Your
words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing
of my heart. This is my comfort in my
affliction, For Your word has given me life. I have hidden Your Word in my
heart, that I might not sin against You.
I will delight myself in Your Statutes.
I will not forget Your Word. It
is very close to me – in my mouth, even in my heart; therefore I DO it. I trust in Your Word. Do not take the Word of Truth completely out
of my mouth; for I have hoped in Your judgments. For the Word of Yahweh is right, and all His
works are in truth. Your Word is a lamp
to my feet and a light to my path. Fix
my steps in Your Word; and let no evil rule over me.
For
I, Yahweh, will speak. The Word which I
shall speak shall be done; it shall not be drawn out again. So says Adonai Yahweh: Not any of my Words will be drawn out any longer.
What I have spoken, that Word shall be
done, declares Yahweh.
The
grass withers; the flower fades; but the Word of our Elohim shall rise
forever. The Word of our Yah stands
forever, and it does not return void, without producing any effect, but it shall
accomplish that which You please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing
for which You sent. Thank You, Yahweh
Elohim, that You are active and alert, watching over Your Word to perform it,
especially IN and THROUGH me!
