Exodus 16: 35 And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.
Again, when God took the Hebrews out of Egyptian bondage, He also did two critically important things to cultivate and maintain optimum health among His people. First, He modified their diet, and then He put them on an exercise regimen of walking, in addition to all the manual labor that was required to maintain their flocks and herds. Fast forward to our day, and the same God is saying to us that these two issues of diet and exercise need our attention in order for good health to be realized.
And to drive home the point, He resorts to the same ways and means that He uses in the Bible to bring our attention to the 7th day Sabbath. He repeats Himself over and over again, hoping that someone will listen, so that folks would not have to suffer needlessly. In fact, He mentions the following Phrase no less than 1211 times so that through the process of repetition, persons will somehow get the message. Here it is: “Physical Exercise”
The following are just a few excerpts from the pen of inspiration, repeating the same thing again and again, because the physical and the spiritual aspects of our being can become an endangered species, if the timely instructions are not followed….. [Patriarchs & Prophets pp 601] Without physical exercise, no one can have a sound constitution and vigorous health.
Genesis 47:6 The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if thou knowest any men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
