As you believe in
miracles, also have faith in medicine. Take advantage of every good thing that
life has given you. One of such is medicine. It saves, gives hope and can
easily restore our health. We cannot get the best out of life if we are not
healthy. Stay connected to the scheme of things by staying healthy. There is a
place for nearly everything under the sun. The creator of the universe will
appreciate if you add value to humanity. You can only win from the position of
good health. To be in good health is a miracle on its own. The earlier you
realize that medicine and miracle are all God’s intervention in your life, the
better for you. All you have to do is to strike a balance. At this level,
sometimes it is complicated because many people do not know when it’s time to
draw a line between hypocrisy and sincerity.
You can’t be useful to
mankind if you do not completely embrace science. Mere prayers or expecting
God’s divine healing when you are sick without taking the necessary steps to
approach the hospital or take medications is not a sign of maturity and can
sometimes be the highway to hell. When there is an accident that resulted in bruises
and fractures, you don’t result to prayers. You are expected to apply First Aid
and then other things can follow. As the word of God nourishes your spirit, so
does herbs and medicine to your body. Doing the right thing is the basis of our
existence. Medicine has become an integral part of mankind. When properly
taken, the result is precise and phenomenal. God expects you to embrace what is
good and then encourage others to do so. The Bible says, “…I have given every green herb
for meat and it was so,” Genesis 1v30.
You cannot do much
from the position of weakness. You have to be at your best in order to give a
satisfactory service. This means every aspect of your life has to be topnotch
and this include your health. If you go about with the mindset that prayers alone
can move mountain, there are chances that you will not live long. This mindset is
destructive and could rob you of your place in this ever changing world. The
advancement in medicine, science and technology are all ordained by God. They
are to make your sojourn on the earth be stress free and eventful. “And
Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician, but
they that are sick,” Luke 5v31.
You cannot afford to
be left out. Key into God’s supernatural care by embracing herbs and medicine
just as you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Taking drugs
when you are sick is not a sign of weakness. It only shows strength and
maturity. It is wickedness and foolhardy for any preacher to take the place of
a medical practitioner, especially when he is not trained in that field. Any
decent preacher should know his boundaries and respect other professionals.
Longevity is of God and He has given humanity medicine to prolong life. Sound doctrine
is mythical. It revolves around those who are bound by it.
Medicine in all its
ramifications can help prolong your life. It is not death sentence for a
preacher to be under medication when he is sick. And there is no shame if your
members know that you are on drugs because you are sick. You are a mortal man. Don’t
put yourself too hard and don’t put yourself under pressure. It is dangerous to
paint a wrong picture of yourself to people who love you. They should know if
you have any health issues and encourage your members to see the doctor when
they sick. Sincerity is not weakness and will not deny you of your place in
heaven. Don’t put yourself in a position that will expose you to hypocrisy and
death. “Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the
mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in
thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote in thy
brother’s eye,” Luke 6v42.
One sad thing about hypocritical
mindset is that it easily takes root and influence people around us. People
ignorantly refuse to see the doctor or take drugs when they are sick because
they expect God to heal them. Some have been told that faith is all they need
to have all their needs met. So even when they are terminally ill, they still think
it is a bad thing to go to the hospital. This is odd.
I am not saying it is
wrong to believe in miracle. I believe in miracle, signs and wonders. To trust
God for all your needs is scriptural. It is noteworthy to say that miracles are
evidence of God’s presence and love. Miracle is a sign of God’s divinity and
power. “And they departed and went through the towns preaching the gospel and
healing everywhere,” Luke 9v6. Sadly, believing in miracle alone cannot
give you a balanced life. You might need a miracle to get a job but it will
require more than a miracle to stay on the job. As a human, you are expected to
create a balance so that you can get the best out of life. Ones you cannot get
this done, you are in trouble. And the chances of you ended a loser will be
extremely high.
Finding the balance between
miracle and medicine so that your life can be fun is one of the reasons why
Christianity is a way of life. Embracing science will not take you to hell or
reduce your chance of drawing strength from the realm of the supernatural. It
will only enhance your life and make you potent. You have your life to live. You
are expected to maximize your potential. “And God blessed them, and God said unto
them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it, and
have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over
every living thing that moveth upon the earth,” Genesis 1v28.
Embrace the best things
so that you can live a fulfilled life. When you are sick, do not only take
anointing oil, see your doctor to prescribe drugs for you. God is not an author
of confusion. Medicine is miracle. You can easily escape death traps by
applying physical solutions to physical problems. Meaning if you have fever, it
is wrong to apply anointing oil over your head and expect the fever to
disappear. Sometimes, under extreme conditions God can heal. It is no longer
news that one of the keynotes of the Bible is signs and wonders, which in turn,
endeared many to God. However, depending on God all of the time for healing
should not take the place of standard medical care. God has given you practical
things you should do to receive instant healing. One of such is seeing your
doctor and taking proper medication when you are sick. God has made life easy
for His people by inspiring some to produce drugs.
The world is a small
place. Your chance of survival will only be enhanced if you take science seriously.
Take advantage of God’s blessing for the world. It will only get better for
people who believe that medicine is miracle. It is the future and it starts
now.
Jesus Christ said only
those that are sick need a physician. This is true. If you are sick, see a
doctor. Under no circumstance should a preacher take up the role of a medical
doctor. No preacher is qualified to administer drugs to any sick patient
whether in his church or anywhere. It is not only poor decision on his part,
but equally suicidal.
Apostle Paul,
irrespective of the fact that God used him to perform miracles to the gentiles,
had a doctor who was always with him everywhere he went. That doctor was Luke. Apostle
Paul, in one of his letters to the church wrote: “Luke, the beloved physician, and
Demas, greet you,” Colossians 4v14. Being a Christian must not stop you
from looking after yourself. You are the number one prophet of your own life.
Take advantage of
God’s blessing to mankind. Embracing medicine does not in any way mean you do
not have faith. You are only being wise and preserving yourself for the greater
glory.
If you are sick, go to
the hospital. Your pastor is not a doctor. The church is not a hospital. Don't
get me wrong. I am not saying miracles are not real. Miracles are potent if
properly deployed. Also, medicine is potent if properly deployed.
Medicine is God's
advanced miracle in an ever changing world. Embrace medicine and live long. Don't
use anointing oil when all that is required is to see a doctor.
