Sometimes we’re praying for God to remove our health struggles...
sleeplessness, extreme fatigue, autoimmunity, pain…
whatever it is…
when we are not treating our body well.
We want the healing. We want the restoration. We want the health.
But it’s so much more than what God can do FOR us.
It’s about you and I…
being faithful to protect, care, hold, strategize, develop and steward what He has already entrusted to us.
So many times, we ask God to heal us when not taking the steps forward to help our own body to do so.
~We go to the prayer meetings at church for healing.
~We ask those around us to pray.
~We ask the Lord to remove what is causing us great physical pain or stress.
We ask… and we are inconsistent, confused, overwhelmed or flat out refuse to steward our body the way God tells us to in His word.
We ask… while treating our bodies like it’s a machine to master… not a temple to steward.
At some point, these prayers need to shift from:
“God, heal me.”
to:
“God, teach me to faithfully steward this body You’ve entrusted to me.”
