Good morning beloved, Thank you for joining in today’s Open Heavens devotional.

Today’s devotional is a wake up call to us about our diet and physical well-being. God wants us to be healthy and feel great in our bodies. But sometimes, we hurt ourselves with food.

Today’s Powerful Confession: I confess today I am not a slave to my desires, I have victory in Christ over everything and that includes victory over unhealthy obsession with food and cravings that destroy the body. I declare that I begin to desire healthy food and my body receives the peace of the Lord in Jesus name. Amen. Hallelujah!

OPEN HEAVEN 29/4/22 MESSAGE

The Bible says that the main purpose for eating should be to gain strength, not for indulging the flesh, as many people do. Food gives strength; however, it can also make a fellow weak spiritually and physically.

When you see people who have become obese because they eat whatever they like whenever they like, you will notice that they are usually weak. For example, such people will begin to pant heavily after minimal physical exercise.

That is a case of overindulgence in food, causing physical weakness. So, if you have noticed that getting up from your seat takes longer and more effort than it should, you need to check your diet.

Those who eat for strength don’t just eat anything; they eat what will make them strong. Fruits and vegetables will provide you with strength; eat a lot of them. Avoid eating foods with much sugar; they usually cause physical exhaustion.

Some people say they have a sweet tooth, and so they are always eating sugary things. May your eating habit not land you in the hospital. If you ask any doctor, they will tell you that sugar weakens the immune system and allows bacteria and viruses to multiply within the body.

If you eat for strength, then almost invariably, you would only eat enough food to give you strength. You would not eat so much as to become weak at the end of the day.

Some people like to eat until their stomach protrudes; this is dangerous to your well-being. You should eat just enough to give you strength. When you are maybe 80% full, you should stop.

When you load your body with too much food, you give it the task of digesting all that food at the same time and that will definitely cause some weakness.

Anyone who does not eat primarily for strength will also be weak spiritually. How can you pray for long when your tummy is filled with pounded yam? How can you pray when you are always feeling lethargic due to the kind of food you consume?.

It is for your own physical and spiritual good that you should eat, in moderate quantities, only foods that will give you strength.

OPEN HEAVEN 29 APRIL 2022 KEY POINT

Assess your regular diet and remove all forms of junk food, replacing them with healthy substitutes.

OPEN HEAVEN 29 APRIL 2022 HYMN
WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD

1. When we walk with the Lord
In the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way,
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

CHORUS
Trust and obey,
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

2. Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away,
Not a doubt or a fear,
Not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.

3. Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay,
Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.

4. But we never can prove
The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay,
For the favour He shows,
And the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.

5. Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way,
What He says we will do,
Where He sends, we will go,
Never fear, only trust and obey.
