Intro 2 Our Creator, Lord, God, YHWH: 9. Food Pray

God created food to be taken of with thanksgiving. When we give thanks, God makes our food Holy, and nothing Holy will cause sickness. God gives us examples of how the apostle Paul, and Jesus himself, gave thanks when they took food. Also, after the miracle of feeding the five thousand, Jesus gave us an example that we are not to waste food, but we are to collect the leftovers from a meal and eat them at a future time. We are to address our prayer to God the Father, and give thanks in Jesus' name. We are to spread or separate our hands, and lifting them up to heaven with our palms facing upward as if holding our prayer on our hands, we are to offer our prayer to God. Many are intimidated in public to raise their hands in prayer for fear of drawing attention to themselves. But God says repeatedly in the Holy Scriptures that we are not to be fearful and are to give testimony for him in all things. God hates cowards, and their portion is to be cast into the pool that burns with fire and brimstone. #minister #religion #church #jesus #God #bible
