Words of Encouragement
Psalm 37:7-9 Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him; fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth.
John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

For Heaven’s Sake…
Such a man was the prophet Elijah. It was he who boldly delivered the message of no rain to the morally weak King Ahab. Nevertheless, “Through the long years of drought and famine, Elijah prayed earnestly that the hearts of Israel might be turned from idolatry to allegiance to God. Patiently the prophet waited, while the hand of the Lord rested heavily on the stricken land. As he saw evidences of suffering and want multiplying on every side, his heart was wrung with sorrow, and he longed for power to bring about a reformation quickly. But God Himself was working out His plan, and all that His servant could do was to pray on in faith and await the time for decided action. PK 133.1
“Today there is need of the voice of stern rebuke; for grievous sins have separated the people from God. Infidelity is fast becoming fashionable. ‘We will not have this man to reign over us,’ is the language of thousands. Luke 19:14. The smooth sermons so often preached make no lasting impression; the trumpet does not give a certain sound. Men are not cut to the heart by the plain, sharp truths of God’s word.PK 140.2
“Would that every minister might realize the sacredness of his office and the holiness of his work, and show the courage that Elijah showed! As divinely appointed messengers, ministers are in a position of awful responsibility. They are to ‘reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering.’ 2 Timothy 4:2. In Christ’s stead they are to labor as stewards of the mysteries of heaven, encouraging the obedient and warning the disobedient. With them worldly policy is to have no weight. Never are they to swerve from the path in which Jesus has bidden them walk. They are to go forward in faith, remembering that they are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses. They are not to speak their own words, but words which One greater than the potentates of earth has bidden them speak. Their message is to be, ‘Thus saith the Lord.’ God calls for men like Elijah, Nathan, and John the Baptist—men who will bear His message with faithfulness, regardless of the consequences; men who will speak the truth bravely, though it call for the sacrifice of all they have.PK 142.1
“God cannot use men who, in time of peril, when the strength, courage, and influence of all are needed, are afraid to take a firm stand for the right. He calls for men who will do faithful battle against wrong, warring against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. It is to such as these that He will speak the words: ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; … enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.’ Matthew 25:23.PK 142.2″

For Health’s Sake…
Enlarged prostate, prostate cancer, fibroids, endometriosis, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and pretty much any reproductive organ condition can be helped from detoxification. They are all caused by a buildup of toxins.
We have five organs of elimination: the skin, colon, lungs, kidneys, and liver. We believe in a total lifestyle package of detoxifying the system, embracing the REFRESHING lifestyle regimen, and using natural remedies as appropriate. Pastor Flemons mentioned details of detoxifying the colon with herbs like psyllium, flax, mandrake, cascara segrada, and slippery elm, which is also great for children and babies. Recommended for use in small amounts, they have a prune juice effect. TOR has a colon cleanse with a blend of these herbs in powder form that is taken with a small amount of water. “You just drink it down,” says Pastor Flemons. Taking probiotics helps as well.
TOR also has an internal cleanse that is a blend of herbs great for detoxifying the liver and kidneys. He also recommends and explained enemas and colonics. He gave specific details about coffee enemas, which is best recommended for liver and even pancreatitis. Another great method for detoxifying the liver is an external pack of grapefruit and Epsom salt was also described in detail. Because the liver is the largest organ of elimination, as all of our blood passes through it every five minutes, it needs to be kept clean. This also helps strengthen the immune system.
Steam baths and saunas are best to detoxify through the skin. Fenugreek and echinacea are great herbs for detoxifying the lungs.
We have been given this divine message of healing:
“The only hope of better things is in the education of the people in right principles. Let physicians teach the people that restorative power is not in drugs, but in nature. Disease is an effort of nature to free the system from conditions that result from a violation of the laws of health. In case of sickness, the cause should be ascertained. Unhealthful conditions should be changed, wrong habits corrected. Then nature is to be assisted in her effort to expel impurities and to re-establish right conditions in the system. MH 127.1″
We call it the REFRESHING Way lifestyle. R-E-F-R-E-S-H-I-N-G: The R is Rely on God; E – Eat healthy; F – Fresh air; R – Rest; E – Exercise; S – Self-control; H – H2O, Drink water; I – In the sun; N – Never give up; and G – Give to others.
That’s biblical wellness.
