Living in Increase (Part 9) - Increase in Healthનમૂનો

Week 2: Physical Health

Honor God with Your Body

Think about this scenario. A friend comes to stay with you temporarily in the house you own. You like to keep the house clean and neat. One night, you come home from work and see trash everywhere! Nothing is clean, and everything is disorganized. How would that make you feel?

I bet that, along with being frustrated and upset, you would feel dishonored. You allowed a friend to stay in your home, and they disrespected your property, which means they disrespected you.

This week, we are discussing the importance of physical health. Physical health is essential because 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says we must honor God with our bodies. God owns our bodies, and the Holy Spirit dwells in us. We were “bought…with a high price” by what Jesus did on the cross (1 Corinthians 6:20). Therefore, we must be careful to take care of the temple of the Holy Spirit.

By increasing our physical health, we will care for our bodies and honor God to the best of our ability!
