SOME RELIGIOUS PRACTICES THAT MAY AFFECT YOUR HEALTH😳

READ TILL THE END👇



Some of the things we do for spiritual upliftment or just our basic spiritual exercises can have negative effect on us.


Granted we serve a God of Miracles, but we should also not put our God to a test.


LET'S LOOK AT SOME OF THEM


👉THE USE OF HOLY WATER: 💦 


Holy water when used rightly does not pose any harm, but when we want to overuse or overdo, it can cause a problem.

Holy water should be sprinkled or taken in small quantity.


THE PROBLEM:😢


Holy water contains salt and salt is not good for persons with high blood pressure. So Imagine a situation where you are praying for God to heal you from high Bp and you are drinking 3 bottles of holy water, You will be compounding your problems.


NOTE✍️


If it's just a bottle water that was blessed without salt, you can take as much as you want, but once it contains salt please just take a little.


👉OLIVE OIL 🍯 


Olive oil is used for anointing, it can also be used for healing, deliverance etc. Taking small amount of quantity is good, applying it on your body it's also good.


 THE PROBLEM:😢


Drinking large amount of olive oil may increase Cholesterol level especially for people with elevated cholesterol level already.


NOTE: ✍️


If the temperature of a child is a very high applying olive oil will further increase the temperature.


Also for Patient on  Oxygen in the hospital, anointing their face with Plenty olive oil may the dangerous, because oil is not good with oxygen.However you can anoint any other part of the body.


👉FASTING:🥱


Fasting is a very good Christian practice, which was also practiced by the early Christians.


THE PROBLEM:😢


Fasting may be okay for everyone but for Pregnant women, ulcers patient and patient on medication fasting from food may not go well with them.


NOTE✍️


You may feel comfortable fasting as a pregnant woman, but remember the baby in the womb is so tender to partake in that your fast, please consider the baby and eat some food.


God is not a God of confusion and He has given us the wisdom, so we need to apply it.


In our bid to practice our christian belief we should try not endanger our lives in the process.


 Let's do our bit and leave the rest for God, He will perfect everything that concerns us.
