Reason #7: To Bring Glory To God
Do All Things To The Glory of God
And finally, the 7th reason we should seek God’s Word concerning our health: to bring Him glory.
The Bible clearly teaches that in everything we do, we are to bring glory to God. I Corinthians 10:31 says this, “Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”
We also know from I Corinthians 6:19 that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?”
And what is to be our response?
The very next verse has the answer, “therefore glorify God in your body.”
What better way to glorify God in your body than to seek to keep it strong and healthy by applying God’s own principles. Reason seven for seeking God’s Word for health could be summed up by recapping the first six reasons.
