Saúde
A saúde é uma bênção de Deus. A Bíblia ensina que Deus é nosso curador, que devemos cuidar do corpo como templo do Espírito e que a alegria do Senhor renova nossas forças.
Deus, o nosso curador
O Senhor é quem sara todas as nossas doenças. Ele prometeu abençoar o pão e a água e tirar as enfermidades do meio do seu povo.
And you shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water; and I will remove sickness from your midst.
He heals the brokenhearted
And binds up their wounds.
Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those with leprosy, cast out demons. Freely you received, freely give.
But when Jesus heard this, He said, "It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick.
O corpo como templo
Nosso corpo é templo do Espírito Santo. A Bíblia nos encoraja a cuidar da saúde física com disciplina e reverência a Deus.
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? For you have been bought for a price: therefore glorify God in your body.
for bodily training is just slightly beneficial, but godliness is beneficial for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.
Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and turn away from evil.
It will be healing to your body
And refreshment to your bones.
A alegria que cura
O coração alegre é bom remédio. A esperança do coração traz alegria, e as palavras agradáveis são como favo de mel — doçura para a alma e saúde para o corpo.
A joyful heart is good medicine,
But a broken spirit dries up the bones.
Pleasant words are a honeycomb,
Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.
Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
But desire fulfilled is a tree of life.
So remove sorrow from your heart and keep pain away from your body, because childhood and the prime of life are fleeting.
