Health is the link between our existence and fulfilling our purpose in life. We will not be able to fulfill our lives if we are living in ill-health. We need a sound and healthy life to be able to accomplish what is our purpose for life.
Good health was as equally important to our Lord Jesus Christ, that was why he spent time healing those who were sick. Whenever they brought sick people to Him, he was always pleased to heal them of their diseases. There was this solid disapproval in the Master's countenance against illnesses. He took pleasure in making the sick well.
The Bible has given us instructions on how we should be healthy. It has several instructions recorded for us to guide us to a healthy life. We must heed all of these instructions and submit ourselves to live and please God. There is soundness in health when we follow the commandments of God.
