Saying, “If you will diligently listen to the voice of the LORD your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, your healer.” Exodus 15:26

Verse Reflections:  I know with the addition of grace, God does not “put diseases” on people.  However, I am a firm believer that we are what we eat.  I believe one reason I am a healthy person (despite my overindulgences) is because I make sure I get four to five fruits and vegetables.  I need to diligently listen to the voice of the Lord as Daniel did.  Daniel and his three friends ate vegetable and water.  They were the healthiest, wisest in the kingdom.  I do believe we allow our body to get worn down by processed foods and they become susceptible to diseases.  God is our healer and He will heal us from our food addictions and allow us to be as healthy as we can be in our circumstances.  Today, we must “diligently listen to the voice of the Lord”.  We must “do that which is right in His eyes”.  We must trust Him to be our healer.

Prayer:  Father, this verse has a lot of promises that I need to hear.  Allow me to diligently listen to Your voice today.  I know if I listen to Your voice I will stop this crazy cycle of eating that I get into.  You are the ultimately healer and I need to be healed from not eating correctly.  I know I will think better, feel better and just be better if I eat Your foods.  Help me to do what is right in Your eyes and eat the foods You prepared for me.  I love You and need You.  Today I am going to plan to be healed by You as I listen for Your voice inside my body, my soul and my mind.  Thank You for healing me.  Thank You for sending Your voice to speak to me.  I love the thought of Your voice inside of me instead of my voice telling me to eat it.  Today we are going to be healthy and stave off diseases and sickness by eating fruits and vegetables.  We are going to coat our bodies with healthy vitamins.  I love You.
