Natural Healing Testimony
The video below is an encouraging testimony from a man who
has suffered from sickle cell disease for 50 years. He recently attended the 10-day detox program
at Bella Vita Lifestyle Center located in California.
This natural detoxification program utilizes fresh juices, vegan
alkaline foods, exercise, colon cleansing, herbal remedies, prayer, and natural
therapies such as poultices and cold sheet wraps to cleanse the body. Even more
beneficial is the spiritual, God-centered manner in which it is done and
taught.
God tells us that the life of the flesh is in the blood Leviticus 17:11. So it makes sense that
when we do things that increase the quality of our blood and blood flow, we
also increase the quality of our health.
In order to have good health, we
must have good blood; for the blood is the current of life. It repairs waste and nourishes the body. When
supplied with the proper food elements and when cleansed and vitalized by
contact with pure air, it carries life and vigor to every part of the
system. The more perfect the
circulation, the better will this work be accomplished. Ellen G. White, Ministry
of Healing, p. 271
In his testimony, Daniel noted that simple, natural
lifestyle changes were responsible for his relief of gout symptoms and
increased overall health. These changes
would now have to be incorporated into his everyday life in order to maintain his
current state of being and improve health even further.
Lifestyle change can be difficult.
Nature’s process of healing and
upbuilding is gradual, and to the impatient it seems slow. The surrender of hurtful indulgences requires
sacrifice. But in the end it will be
found that nature, untrammeled, does her work wisely and well. Those who persevere in obedience to her laws
will reap the reward in health of body and health of mind. Ellen G.
White, Ministry of Healing, p. 127
Unfortunately, many of us have developed habits which cause
our blood to be acidic, sluggish, and deficient. However, it is never too late to decide to
make changes in the way we live.
Lifestyle changes can be difficult, especially in our own strength. But with God’s support, guidance, and
strength all things are possible. Matthew 19:26
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in
health, just as your soul prospers 3 John 1:2
