Barbara's Entourage
Preventive Medicine
 Our Thoughts:
Too often, we wait until we are sick, in order to find out what's wrong with our bodies. We go to the doctor so he will
prescribe the correct medicine so we can get well. We never think about stopping an illness before it starts. We are told that Vitamin C will help prevent colds, but most
of us never take the vitamin in a strong enough dose to ward off a cold. We usually have these little 'tidbits' of knowledge, and never excercise them in order to see if they
really work for us.
Our spiritual lives are the same way. We don't practice 'preventive medicine' in order for our Spirit to never get 'sick'. Yes, our spirit can and does get sick,
if the correct dose of 'medicine' isn't given all the time! We all have a 'measure of faith' and we need to use that faith BEFORE we get sick; that is, we need to constantly confess what the Word says.
God's Thoughts:
Romans 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
James 5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
Our Cup:
Heavenly Father, help us to practice our faith, to speak the Word over our circumstances, so our spirit will never be sick. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
