4. DISEASE

But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all His commandments and statutes, that all these curses shall come upon thee and overtake thee.Deut. 28 : 15

DISEASE IS THE RESULT OFDISOBEYING THE LAWS OF GOD BOTH NATURAL AND SPIRITUAL!

5. Disease: Where does it come from?

Diseasenevercomes without a cause, the way is first prepared, and disease invited by disregarding the laws of health .

Healthful Living, p. 60

6. PRESERVED FROM DISEASE IF AS A PEOPLE THEY HAD LIVED ACCORDING TOGODS PLAN , THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN PRESERVED FROM THE DISEASES THAT AFFLICTED OTHER NATIONS.

In case of sickness the cause should beascertained , unhealthful conditions should bechanged , wrong habits corrected. Then nature is to be assisted in her efforts to expel impurities and reestablish right conditions in the system.

Ministry of Healing, p. 127

9. In Case of Sickness we are to:

#1. Find out the causethe laws of health that have been broken.

#2. Remove the causecorrect wrong habits

#3. Assist Nature

A. to expel impurities (cleanse, detoxify)

B. to restore the system to health

10. Find out the cause When the abuse of health is carried so far that sickness results, the sufferer can often do for himself what no one else can do for him. The first thing to be doneIs to ascertain the true character of the sickness and then go to work intelligently to remove the cause .MH 235 11. Godly Trust Genesis 2:17 Sunshine Genesis 1:16 Daily Exercise Genesis 2:15 Open Air Genesis 1:6,7 Proper Rest Genesis 2:3 Lots Of Water Genesis2:10 Always Temperate Genesis 2:16,17 Nutrition Genesis 1:29 GODS PLAN 12. GODLY TRUST 13. 14. STRESS S elf T rust R estricts E very S piritual S uccess 15. Stress and Anxiety

16. Causes

17. Results of Stress

18.

While grief and anxiety cannot remedy a single evil, they can do great harm; but cheerfulness and hope, while they brighten the pathway of others, "are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh" (Proverbs 4:22).--ST, Feb 12, 1885.{1MCP 62.3}

19.

Faith in God's love and overruling providence lightens the burdens of anxiety and care. It fills the heart with joy and contentment in the highest or the lowliest lot. Religion tends directly to promote health, to lengthen life, and to heighten our enjoyment of all its blessings. It opens to the soul a never-failing fountain of happiness. {CE 68.1}

20.

Gossiping and anxiety concerning the external appearance have often taken the precious time that should have been devoted to prayer for wisdom and strength from God to fulfill this most sacred trust. Fathers and mothers who are wise unto salvation will seek to make their surroundings such that they will be favorable to the formation of correct character in their children. {CTBH 138.2}

21. MH 358

Above all lower orders of being, God designed that man, the crowning of his creation, should express His thought and reveal His glory. But man is not to exalt himself as God.

22. MH 395

We cannot allow ourselves to act from impulse. We cannot be off guard for a moment. Beset with temptations without number, we must resist firmly or be conquered. Should we come to the close of life with our work undone, it would be an eternal loss. The life of the apostle Paul was a constant conflict with self. He said, I die daily.

23.

The love which Christ diffuses through the whole being is a vitalizing power. Every vital part--the brain, the heart, the nerves--it touches with healing. By it the highest energies of the being are roused to activity. It frees the soul from the guilt and sorrow, the anxiety and care, that crush the life forces. With it come serenity and composure. It implants in the soul joy that nothing earthly can destroy--joy in the Holy Spirit--health-giving, life-giving joy (The Ministry of Healing, p. 115).

24.

Jesus shows that in making the things of the world their supreme anxiety they were like the heathen nations about them. . . .{AG 21.2}

"All these things," said Jesus, "do the nations of the world seek after" (Luke 12:30). . . . I have come to open to you the kingdom of love and righteousness and peace. Open your hearts to receive this kingdom, and make its service your highest interest. Though it is a spiritual kingdom, fear not that your needs for this life will be uncared for. . . .{AG 21.3}

Jesus does not release us from the necessity of effort, but He teaches that we are to make Him first and last and best in everything. We are to engage in no business, follow no pursuit, seek no pleasure, that would hinder the outworking of His righteousness in our character and life. Whatever we do is to be done heartily, as unto the Lord.{AG 21.4}

25. Fighting STRESS

Begin the day with God

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.Mat 6:33

Acknowledge God during the day

Remedy for Anxiety .--God cares for everything and sustains everything that He has created. . . .No tears are shed

that He does not notice. There is no smile that He does not mark.{2MCP 471.5} If we would but fully believe this, all undue anxieties would be dismissed. Our lives would not be so filled with disappointment as now; for everything, whether great or small, would be left in the hands of God, who is not perplexed by the multiplicity of cares or overwhelmed by their weight. We should then enjoy a rest of soul to which many have long been strangers.--SC 86 (1892).{2MCP 472.1}

26.

Spread out your case before the Lord, and whatever your anxieties and trials, your spirit will be braced for endurance. The way will be opened before you to disentangle yourself from embarrassment and difficulty. You need not go to the next town or to the ends of the earth to learn what course you shall pursue. Trust in God as your present Helper, who will overrule all things as One who knows best.--Manuscript 15, March 14, 1897, "Individual Experience Necessary."{TDG 82.3}

27.

Help others

28.

We should neglect nothing that would serve to benefit a human being. Let everything be gathered up that will relieve the necessities of earths hungry ones MH 48-49

Human effort will be efficient in the work of God just according to the consecrated devotion of the worker by revealing the power of the grace of Christ to transform the life. We are to be distinguished from the world because God has placed His seal upon us, because he manifests in us His character of love. Our redeemer cover us with his righteousness. MH 37

29. 30. 31. 32. 33. John 16: 33

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

34. Mat 6:25

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

the time will soon come when there will be no safety in using eggs, milk, cream, or butter, because disease in animals is increasing in proportion to the increase of wickedness among men. The time is near when, because of the iniquity of the fallen race, the whole animal creation will groan under the diseases that curse our earth.7T 135

72. There are those who ought to be awake to the danger of meat eating, who are still eating the flesh of animals, thus endangering the physical, mental, and spiritual health. Many who are now only half converted on the question of meat eating will go fromGod's people to walk no more with them. {CD 382.1} 73. Animals are becoming more and more diseased, and it will not be long until animal food will be discarded by many besides Seventh-day Adventists. 7T 124 74.

By the indulgence of perverted appetite, man loses his power to resist temptation.MH 335

The controlling power of appetite will prove the ruin of thousands, when, if they had conquered on this point, they would have had moral power to gain the victory over every other temptation of Satan. But those who are slaves to appetite will fail in perfecting Christian character. The continual transgression of man for six thousand years has brought sickness, pain, and death as its fruits. And as we near the close of time, Satan's temptation to indulge appetite will be more powerful and more difficult to overcome.--Testimonies, vol. 3, pp. 491, 492.{Te 21.2}
