Praise our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard; he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping.

Verse reflections:  He has preserved our lives!!  Seriously, why do we keep stuffing boxed macaroni and cheese, doughnuts, pasta, cookies and cake in our bodies?  There is NO nutritional value worth mentioning in these crazy processed foods that we crave.  We are creating a false illusion that we are getting the proper nutrition by filling our stomachs with foods that will not generate healthy cell regeneration, good eyesight, neuron function to send signals from our brain out to our bodies.  Did you know it takes twice as much energy for neuron function in the brain?  We need vitamins and minerals for a healthy body.  This verse is so beautiful because by keeping us from slipping He is preserving our lives.  Claim it!  Imagine Your feet nailed to the outside of the grocery store lines.  Imagine Your feet nailed down when you want to go to the kitchen and snag an unhealthy snack.  Imagine Your cell phone nailed down when you want to call a delivery service.  He will keep us from slipping by surrounding us daily with the power in His word.  His word is the difference.  I can’t explain it, I don’t understand it but it works!  The only thing different that I am doing between last year and this year is finding verses, reading them, adding a beautiful enlightenment that is relevant to my battle with eating that God is shining on the verses and claiming them.  I praise Him, may the sound of His praise be heard by each of You because He rocks!  His power is unbelievable and finally I am eliminating the cravings that made me think I was crazy.  I am convinced He saved my life and gave me additional years of health.  Praise God.

Prayer:  Father, I cannot thank You enough for preserving my life, for creating a path I can take where my feet don’t slip.  I took other paths that were successful for a while and then life would throw a boulder in my way and I would slip all the way back to the beginning and gain every pound back in no time.  Father, I am praising You for giving us God foods that give us nutrition and eliminate cravings.  I have not found any combination of Your foods that create cravings like I used to have.  Some tell us to be careful of fruit, or be careful of nuts or other foods but for me all of Your foods work.  God You are so powerful and amazing.  For once, my feet are not slipping every other day.  I truly believe I can live eating like this for the rest of my life.  I praise You for this life changing, all powerful way of eating and living.  I love Your foods, I just have to have Your power to get around the temptation that makes me think I need the junk food in quantities that are ridiculous.  Father, surround me with power that nails my feet to the healthy path You have called me to take.  Give me shoes that will not slip.  I love You so much and I want to do Your will, to follow the path that will preserve my life and my mental health.  I am claiming Your promise to keep my feet from slipping today.  I love You tons.   Here’s to God foods.
