Lord’s Supper, testimonies of healings began <strong>to</strong><br />

stream in, <strong>and</strong> I cannot wait <strong>to</strong> share some of them<br />

with you in this book. Whether you are facing a<br />

medical challenge or you simply desire <strong>to</strong> live in a<br />

gr<strong>eat</strong>er measure of <strong>health</strong>, I know you will be<br />

blessed <strong>by</strong> the truths in this book.<br />

Interestingly, many people think the <strong>way</strong> <strong>to</strong> live a<br />

long <strong>and</strong> <strong>health</strong>y <strong>life</strong> is <strong>to</strong> watch what they <strong>eat</strong>.<br />

That’s why so many fad diets have come <strong>and</strong> gone,<br />

<strong>and</strong> we are constantly <strong>to</strong>ld we need “<strong>health</strong> foods”<br />

like barley greens, coconut oil, <strong>and</strong> spirulina, just <strong>to</strong><br />

name a few, in order <strong>to</strong> stay <strong>health</strong>y. I was stunned <strong>to</strong><br />

discover that the dieting industry in America alone is<br />

a seventy-billion-dollar industry <strong>to</strong>day, 1 with<br />

businesses trying <strong>to</strong> push all kinds of dieting<br />

methods, supplements, <strong>and</strong> plans.<br />

Don’t get me wrong. By all means <strong>eat</strong> well,<br />

choose the right foods, <strong>and</strong> stay a<strong>way</strong> from excesses<br />

that will damage <strong>your</strong> body. But our dependence<br />

cannot be on diets, fancy activity trackers, exercise<br />

apps, <strong>and</strong> <strong>health</strong> foods. Thank God for nutritionists<br />

<strong>and</strong> fitness instruc<strong>to</strong>rs. They are fighting the same<br />

battle. Our trust, however, has <strong>to</strong> be in the<br />

redemption purchased <strong>by</strong> Christ <strong>and</strong> not in cr<strong>eat</strong>ion.<br />

I will elaborate on this in the following chapters.
