Proverbs 6:12-15 shows some of the areas which cause sickness and disease to flourish on planet earth. Knowing what they are and determining to avoid them will help us live our lives in health and wholeness.

In the Word of God, there is absolutely a strong and solid connection between health and healing, between sin and sickness. You will find, as look at the Word, that there are verses which reference being healed and being saved both in the same verse. We are going to look at Proverbs six today and look at the connection between a sin and incurable diseases. One of those connections is crooked speech.

Incurable diseases are on the rise on planet earth. So says a September 2017 report. Why are they increasing? Is there any clue? Yes, thank God there is. The Word of God helps us to know why and also clues us into how to effectively close the door to them.

Thankfulness is more than a seasonal sentiment — it's a life-shaping attitude that determines how you see God, yourself, and the world around you. As we enter another Thanksgiving season, Scripture calls us to give thanks always and to recognize that gratitude reflects the condition of our hearts. Ephesians 5:20 reminds us that thankfulness isn't circumstantial; it's a posture of faith rooted in God's goodness. In this episode, we explore why thankfulness must be taught, reinforced, protected, and practiced — and how your value system is revealed in what you celebrate and what you grieve. Gratitude changes everything because it keeps your heart aligned with God.

Often times we can tell what something is by looking at what it isn't. There is some confusion on what divine healing is. Some have taken the 'beef stew approach' and lumped it all together in the same pot. In this podcast, we separate the pieces.

You've gone a little too far with this Jesus business. What do you do? Well, you can look at the example of Jesus. What did Jesus do when His family thought He had lost His mind over God the Father.

In last week's podcast, we took a look at two Bible examples which illustrated the principle of Kingdom first. One was a positive example in Asa, the other a negative one in the example of Eli. In this week's episode we are going to look at a few more, both Old and New Testament people who illustrated by their choices that seeking first the Kingdom of God was the way to live. All this on this week's Light on Life.

Bible examples of what it means to out God's Kingdom first place in our everyday lives.

What are we going to with Jesus words, 'I did not come to bring peace to the earth, but I came to bring a sword, for I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law and a man's enemies will be those of his own household? Tha's what we will take a look at in this week's Light on Life.
