And God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food. Genesis 1:29 "
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2 These two verses came to me today as I was reflecting on what God has instructed us to do and what He has provided for us bountifully. We are to renew our minds daily. That means replacing our thoughts with God's thoughts. We obtain His thoughts by reading His Word and getting it into us so much so that we know when a non-God thought pops in. Renew your mind daily. Part of this world's ways is to reel you in to its belief systems. Remember that satan is the ruler of the earth, so whatever is not of God is rooted in the enemy's schemes to get you to doubt, fear and fall into lies every where you turn. The battle of the mind to do what is right constantly can be overwhelming especially for someone with addictions. Think about food addictions and obesity. This is all fear based addictions. People worry about not getting enough or missing out on something. This is of the enemy. If I might bring up another scripture for this situation. It is Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil n the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and,as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints. God put multiple kinds of foods on the earth to sustain us, heal us, and nourish us daily. From plant life to animal life, it's ours for the taking. The tainted part of it all is how man has taken food and turned into a money-making endeavor turning food into shelf-stable, preserved, artificial, processed, outright unhealthy end products. I cannot be one to convince a person to eat better. I believe with knowledge from the Word of God, we can gain discipline and right thinking. The blessing on our food, I believe covers all the rest. Even without trying, our foods are contaminated and have lost nutrients due to natural disasters or chemical-disasters. With God's help we can make the best choices possible for our families and ultimately trust God for the rest and the results. His plan to come back for His people who follow His commands, love Him and trust in Him daily still stands. His desire for us to be free from the power of sin and death involves our current life here too. So be free from addictions, lust, and worldy ways and thoughts. We are God's children. If you're reading this and wondering where I am coming from and you have not yet made a decision to live for Christ, there's no better time than now. Don't give the enemy any room to move into your thoughts or your life anymore. He's kept you away too long already. Ask Jesus to be a part of your every day. Accept salvation from His death on the cross. Read John 3:18. and contact me asap and we'll have someone pray with you.
