Pastor W. F Kumuyi, the General Superintendent of the Deeper Life Bible Church spoke about The Personal Price Of Glorifying God and Eating Without Offence in his second point during a recent Bible Study program. He speaks about selflessness as a concept and how our body must be used for the glorification of God.
He read from the book of 1 Corinthians 6: 13 which says
"
Meats for the belly and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for his body"The man of God however warned his members against eating things that are injurious to their body. He said that if you form an habit of eating what is injurious to your body and you are thinking of the future and of your health. You feel that since you didn' t steal the food, you can eat it irrespective of a negative effect imbedded in it and make yourself a glutton. The man of God however warned that meat will definitely pass away and your body will also pass away.
The man of God further explained that the body is not for fornication but it is for the Lord. He advised them to dedicate their body and understand the goal of God. What glorifies God is that you protect and preserve that body for his use. Everything that God has given to you should be used for his glory which is very important we Christians.
Whatever you take into your body, whatever comes out if your mouth and your life should be edifying and profitable. You should not be brought under the power of anything and any habit that one is developing.
In conclusion, we should avoid food that could be injurious and dangerous to our body because everything will pass away. We should surrender our body to be used by God and not just aggravate it to ourselves.
