Genesis 1:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creeps upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. 31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
[Healthful Living 9 par. 1>4] From the first dawn of reason the human mind should become intelligent in regard to the physical structure of the body. Here Jehovah has given a specimen of himself; for man was made in the image of God. 3. The living organism is God's property. It belongs to him by creation and by redemption; and by a misuse of any of our powers we rob God of the honor due him. We are God's workmanship, and his word declares that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made.” He has prepared this living habitation for the mind; it is “curiously wrought,” a temple which the Lord himself has fitted up for the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
It is the will of God that those who are preparing for His soon coming, become intelligent concerning His purposes as revealed in the Scriptures, and thus, it’s imperative that the deep study of His word, as well as a deep personal relationship with Christ, be now sought after as treasure.
In closing, if we choose to dwell on sacred writ, and if we would take some time to commune with God and nature, we will discover that the things of this earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace. We therefore end with a few passages of scripture that encourage us to do just that.
Isaiah 40:29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increases strength. 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall. 31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
