17. And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.

FULL MESSAGE: RCCG Open Heaven Devotional Adult English 24 August 2022
There are many sicknesses and diseases in the world today that were not there in the days of our forefathers. This can be traced primarily to the difference in food consumption between those olden days and now. In those days, they didnt have canned foods so they never tried to preserve anything through artificial means. Their bodies were strong and healthy
because they got their food fresh from the farm as there were no freezers. These days, we want to store up our foods in the freezers because we want to minimise the number of times we go shopping. We want to be hungry
this moment and have our food ready in five minutes,
hence the increase in junk food and the use of microwave
ovens. These things come at a cost to our health and
vitality.I am 80 years old now and still as strong as I was a couple of decades ago. Yes, no doubt, the Lord has been keeping me strong. I on the other hand too have not been consuming things that will kill my body.If you want to stay strong and healthy, stop eating frozen and junk foods. When Jesus was teaching His disciples in Matthew 6:11 , He told them to pray thus, Give us this day our daily bread, not our weekly bread, not our
monthly bread. As much as you can, get your food for the day fresh from the source.All the frozen foods and canned foods you see are being preserved with chemicals that are dangerous to your health. Have a small garden or flower pots somewhere around your house where you can plant some vegetables
so that you can get them fresh whenever you want.In the days of old, our fathers did not have as many sicknesses as we have now because they did not have cars, neither did they have air-conditioners. They breathed in fresh air and cooled themselves with it. These days, some people move from air-conditioned homes to air-conditioned cars to air-conditioned offices. You are still young, why cant you stay outdoors just for a little while every day to take in fresh air and vitamin D in the morning? If you start exercising your body and eating right, you will begin to feel the improvement in your health right away. RCCG Open Heaven Devotional Adult English 24 August 2022

Hymns: CONQUERORS AND OVERCOMERS NOW ARE WE
CONQUERORS AND OVERCOMERS NOW ARE WE
1. Conquerors and overcomers now are we,
Thro’ the precious blood of Christ we’ve victory,
If the Lord be for us, we can never fail;
Nothing ‘gainst his mighty pow’r can e’er
prevail. RCCG Open Heaven Devotional Adult English 24 August 2022
CHORUS
Conquerors are we,
thro’ the blood of Jesus,
God will give us victory,
thro’ the blood of Jesus,
Thro’ the Lamb for sinners slain,
Yet who lives and reigns again,
More than conquerors are we,
More than conquerors are we.
2. In the name of Israel’s God we’ll onward
press,
Overcoming sin and all unrighteousness;
Not to us, but unto Him the praise shall
be,
For salvation and for blood bought victory.

3. Unto him that overcometh shall be giv’n
Here to eat of hidden manna sent from
heav’n;
Over yonder he the victor’s palm shall
bear,
And a robe of white, and golden crown
shall wear.
