Exodus 15:26 And he said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that heals thee.
[3] Consult with a doctor whose advice should not go contrary to “It is written” where applicable. This is of critical importance, for there are times when advice given by well-meaning professionals is not in line with Scriptural instructions. Especially is this the case on the issue of diets and foods, thus the instructions given should align with a thus saith The Lord.
[4] Start light, and gradually increase. There is no reason to start huffing, and puffing the moment you begin training. The proven principle of gradualism works both in the spiritual as well as the physical realm. The race is not for the swiftest, for the Tortoises often win, where the Cheeta fails. If you decide to incorporate aerobic and strength training, as is highly advised where warranted, it is best to start with what you can do comfortably, and then gradually increase the physical challenges. This will give your body time to adapt and heal properly, so that you will avoid burn out and fatigue.
[5] Proper warm up and stretching is a must. It is important not to rush into the peak of training, before sufficient warm up and pre stretching, as this will preempt damage to your bones, muscles, and tendons. Remember the principle of gradualism and try to incorporate it into everything you do, for it is a time proven strategy for success in everything. In addition, try not to neglect your extremities, for some persons suffer with blood flow issues, and in the elderly especially, you want your blood flowing throughout the entire body, including your fingers, and toes.
Proverbs 3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil. 8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
