that it is so well packed and designed to deal with the entire human oh yes the total man the spiritual component oh yes yes and it really is with the the whole man and at this time we are going to be having doctor street to refresh us to give us information as he speaks on food that we eat and how we can nourish our bodies so at this time we will be having doctor street to edify us good evening my name is dr douglas street and i want to present to you a very important topic now i want to speak to you about eating well now there are a lot of misconceptions about what healthy eating is is all about and we're actually going to be doing a program starting in august which is focused on i want to live healthy so this is one of the areas that we're going to be focusing on so i just want to give you a little prelude so you can be prepared before we start that program now why is healthy eating so important no healthy eating helps to reduce inflammation inside the body inflammation is a reaction of your immune system and this can cause many problems inside the body it can cause damage to the body for example arthritis is caused by inflammation and all the chronic illnesses that diabetes hypertension and and heart disease strokes these diseases are caused by long-term inflammation inside the body and your that plays a very important role in the level of inflammation inside the body if you eat a certain way then it can reduce inflammation and if not it can increase it and increase the risk of you having these problems now first of all they are it's important for you to be eating the right thing so the content of your diet is very important so we'll look at first the carbohydrates so look at that starches what we recommend is that you go for foods which have we call a low glycemic index now glycemic index is the level of blood sugar that a particular food will trigger inside of your body so you want to go for the low glycemic foods glycemic index um is is really a measure of that level it and it should be less than 70. so you should go for more of the foods that have a glycemic index of less than 70. now these foods include things like yum banana sweet potato plantain brown rice you know uh oats especially old-fashioned oats and steel-cut oats quinoa you know these kind of foods bulgo and avoid the foods which have a high glycemic index things like flour so bread biscuit crackers these foods have a high glycemic mechanism it should be avoided um sweet but irish potato also has a high glycemic index and even pumpkin has a high glycemic index dashing also and cassava these foods have a high glycemic index and should really be limited or avoided in your diet especially for those persons who are diabetic go for the complex carbohydrates that you you know you get by the market for example not so much in the supermarket right also it's important to get your healthy proteins well the best proteins to have are the plant-based proteins animal-based proteins tend to trigger a lot of inflammation and this may be because they tend not to have much fiber right so go for the peas and beans nuts and seeds now it's important to be able to to uh to combine these these um these foods properly so if you're for example you're a vegetarian diet it's important to understand how to combine the protein so that you get a proper mix so you could look at it as two arms of plant-based proteins there is the the peas and beans on one and on the nut senses on the other hand you should ensure that those two arms are combined each day they don't have to be at at the same meal but it's important to make sure you have them on on on on the same day plant-based proteins tend to have a lot of fiber also minerals and um and antioxidants so it's best to go for those plant-based proteins they help to reduce inflammation in the body because of course they have fiber which helps to slow down the absorption of foods and and toxins from intestines and so it's best to have more of those than the animal based proteins and my base proteins don't really have much fiber so they tend to allow the nutrients to spike in the blood and this can spike inflammation so you should go for more the the at the plant-based proteins but for those who probably do in a transition you could for example cut off the chicken and the red meats um you know the beef and the morton and then just stick to the fish and then eventually transition into a full vegetarian diet that's really the best way to go about it now um one of the things that people tend to misunderstand about about proteins is is their products their products are not healthy person might say oh there has a lot of calcium but look at it this way sea water has a lot of water in a building gonna drink seawater right the other things that are in it will make it unhealthy so it's best to avoid their products except maybe yogurt yogurt and kefir nuts not too bad but the the straight milk and and cheese those trigger a lot of inflammation in the body and believe it or not they're more likely to cause your body to lose calcium than to get calcium there's nothing misunderstanding persons have so don't think you can get calcium much calcium from milk it is in the milk but it is it is really for the calf not for us so it's not designed for human consumption really it's designed for a calf right so don't go far for the dairy products for that next thing is to and the carbs the amount of carbs you should have in that is about 25 proteins also achieve about 25 percent fruits that's not another category you should have about 20 of your diet consisting of fruits right and your fruits should be consumed with your breakfast preferably right they should not be consumed as your breakfast but it should be consumed with your breakfast you should have your your your um your main meal your breakfast with your fruits fruits as in sugar so it's important not to have too much those 20 and it should not be replaced by fruit juice fruit juice is not healthy yes i know it sounds strange but fruit juice is not healthy the fruits are healthy have fresh and a variety of fruits uh not so much a fruit juice fruit juice as if as a fiber take note of it so it's not so good for you and also drinks avoid drinks as well right you should also consume vegetables and 30 percent of your diet should be of fresh vegetables and as much as possible try to avoid cooking your vegetables when you cook your vegetables you lose a lot of the benefits from it you lose a lot of the antioxidants from it so it's best to have your vegetables raw and you can have it blended if you if you if you like to have it blended and this can let you have most of the nutrients that are in it especially antioxidants when you blend it it you extract the antioxidants better so um so it's better suited for you no you should not you should not strain your vegetables when you blend them you should you should should consume it just as how it goes into your blender so it's better to have the whole vegetables blended rather than vegetable juice it's better for you that way also ensure that you get healthy fats in your diet and your fats should really be again um animal sorry plant-based and not animal-based animal-based fats tend to have a lot of saturated fat it's best to avoid those and go for the plant-based fats which are usually liquid at room temperature so we talk about um like you know the canola oil for example and it's best to go for a virgin oil right oil that has not been heated and you can actually add healthy oils to your meals to increase the calorie content color content and so and to help to avoid eating frequently so ensure that you you had healthy oils to your meals when you're about to eat it so so as to get the benefits from it so you can use extra virgin olive oil canola oil or virgin coconut oil those are the ones that i mostly recommend those are the healthier ones right and i said try not to heat your oil trying to do in a frying for example heating your oil cause it to become unhealthy so it's best to have your oil raw in your food canola oil doesn't have much taste so it's a good one to add to your meal so that you can add it in and you don't really taste it very much the other thing that's important is the way that you that you you prepare your meal certain foods when they are baked for example it can cause it to become unhealthy right so like your sweet potato should not be baked because that will increase the glycemic index so it spikes your blood sugar more it's best to have those foods boiled rather than baked right um certain other foods should also you should try and avoid them like a plant and so on some foods the foods that you can boil your boiling right but like if it is your healthy bread like for example bread made of rye or spelt flour not wheat flour whether whole wheat or white flour whole wheat flow is not as healthy as most people think right it should really be avoided in your diet so it's best to to go for rye or spelt flour roasting food is also not not healthy and should really be avoided right and you should also practice discipline in timing of your meals so have two or three meals per day preferably your breakfast and lunch and try to avoid having dinner it's best to have two meals and three meals per day right and it's best to avoid eating after four o'clock or in or in some cases after six it's best to stop eating as early as possible right so i hope these tips are important this this type of eating can help to reduce inflammation in the body and can help to correct your illnesses and live a a healthier life hope you enjoy the rest of the program have a wonderful evening broken from the journey beaten from the struggle straining [Music] but in the middle of confusion my doubts and desolution [Music] i know his voice [Music] and when he speaks [Music] [Music] i struggled for answers in the sea of trouble drowning in the waves of the but in oceans desperate situation and present contemplation i look for a safe place to run and hide but when he speaks and when he speaks [Music] speaks when he speaks i know his voice and when he speaks [Music] [Music] where [Music] [Music] i stood in the courtroom [Music] it looks like you're guilty [Music] and what do you [Music] [Applause] [Music] your honor i have no but that's when when mercy [Music] mercy him and pleaded [Music] [Applause] [Music] is [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] and i felt bored again the moment mercedes [Applause] [Music] [Applause] presented [Music] [Applause] [Music] is [Music] how could this be [Music] my chains were broken and i fell more again that moment [Music] [Applause] my case [Music] [Applause]

christ will indeed do so before it is too late but it is my joy to welcome you to this evening's worship those who are joining us via youtube facebook wccn bless tv uh whatever social media platform

our god one more evening and we just asked that you will stop by here to bless your word to bless your man's servant to bless each viewer through the power of your holy spirit bring conviction bring conversion and bring transformation we pray in jesus name amen and amen our subject this evening is taking you forward taking you forward it is never god's intention for us to go backward god is always interested in taking us forward turn your bibles isaiah chapter 43 isaiah 43 and i will read the verses one and two but no thus says the lord who created thee o jacob and he who form you o israel fear not i have redeemed you i have called you by your name you are mine it is certain that god's children will face tribulation it is a certainty that god's children will face tribulation it is not if but it is when it is power tribulation is common to god's children tribulation is common to god's people if we should take and estimate pastorals of our lives how much do we owe god how much do we owe god i will say to you that we are indebted to god we are indebted to god we cannot pay our debts that we oh god we owe god too much to be able to pay him god brought us out of nothing made us in his likeness endow us with immeasurable capacity it is in him that we live and move and have our beings and i say amen not only did god create us from nothing so everything that we have is as a result of god because he brought us from nothing not only did he bring us from nothing but he built us up our lives our human relationships our body our health is as a result of god he is not only our creator but he is our sustainer somebody needs to say amen our joy our comfort our mental strength we it is because of god not only has he created us not only has he sustained us but praise god he is our redeemer and so he has redeemed us he has delivered us from sin and the deliverance that god has made is greater than any military deliverance he has delivered us from sin so wherever you are whoever you are you belong to god once because he made you twice because he sustains you and tries because he redeems you so don't believe that you belong just to yourself you belong to god we're looking at nature this afternoon this evening and how speaks to us isaiah is saying oh jacob i formed you oh israel then he made a strong statement fear not fear not two words that brings comfort two words that brings assurance two words that brings satisfaction fear not take god at his word this evening fear not that's assurance that we need for our future no matter how life is threatening no matter how the storm is raging god's word is saying to all of us fear not i know that this evening there are many individuals there are many families that are fearful and sometimes wherever you live the community you live in will even heighten your fear sometimes the circumstances that surround your life will even heighten your fear but this evening upon the authority of the word of almighty god i am saying to somebody fear not do not be afraid take god at his word because god can be trusted his word can be trusted fear not in the midst of our difficulties fear not in the midst of a hardship fear not in the midst of our pain fear not let us take god at his word fear not why shouldn't you be afraid because god has said it and god is on your side your eyes it's getting powerful fear not i have called you oh i have called you by your name you are mine church of the living god viewers god is saying don't be afraid because he has called you by your name he knows your name need to say this to somebody god knows your name god knows your situation god knows your condition god knows the problems that you're going through right now nobody probably knows the trouble you're going through nobody knows the details thereof but there's a god who knows everything and take note he takes note of everything fear not you are mine i have called you by your name you are not an outcast you may not have the family support you need you may not have the financial package that you want you may not have everything to your comfort but you belong to god fear not thou art mine because i made you because i bought you you belong to me you are not a bastard you are not an outcast you belong to god and then isaiah do something here that is powerful isaiah use a pair of opposites to describe the experience that people are going through stay with me somebody isaiah says when you pass through the waters i will be with you talking about nature when you go through the rivers they shall not overflow you when you walk through the fire you shall not be burned it doesn't finish there nor shall the flame scourge you isaiah uses the pair of opposite fire on one side and water on the other side water and fire a pair of opposite to describe the experience that you are going through to describe the hardship of life oh it's getting powerful fire and water friends are two of our best friends so long as we have them under our controller fire and water can be our best friends as long as we have them under our control fire water is the source we cannot live for long without water water is very vital to life we need water too bathe we need water to water the plants we need water for domestic views we need water for recreation we need water for drinking we need water for almost everything fire also is needed even though we have electric equipment fire is still a source of heat we need fire to warm we even need fire to cleanse fire is important support water and fire are very important for our survival as long as we have them under our control as long as we are the masters of these two elements they warm they cleanse they nourish they fertilize they convey but when these two elements get the mastery over us they overturn they consume the injury they destroy both property and life and they become illustration of trials and distress and isaiah uses them to represent our triumphs and our distress but god friends does not remove our troubles god just make a way through our troubles god does not remove our distress and our pain he just make a way through god will always make a way through our trials and difficulties somebody needs to know that the things you're going through now the difficulties of life that diagnosis that pain that broken relationship that broken marriage that that loss of a job somebody needs to know that the trials that you're going through god is still in control somebody need to hear the preacher this evening i've come by to let you know that the god we serve he is master of ocean and earth and sky his master of all the elements they shall sweetly obey his will have come by this evening to let you know that with god on your side with god in your life your trials and difficulties cannot overrun you i wish somebody listening to the preacher can understand that the devil wants to use your trials and your difficulties to this to to to disturb you he wants to use them to discourage you as a matter of fact in the midst of kovid so many individuals have gotten discouraged so many individuals feel like giving up you have lost your job you have lost your family had to say goodbye to a loved one god wants me to let you know that all you have to do is to put your trust and confidence in him hear me friends god has a way of working things out even when we cannot see our way out he just show up at the right time he's an untimed god and sometimes my friends oh help me holy ghost sometimes god just show up with a sense of humor sometimes god just show up with a sense of humor can you remember when the disciples peter and his friends after jesus was crucified peter and a few of his other disciples in john 21 went to catfish and the toil all night hey hey hey it's not easy to be a fisherman and to go all night and god nothing it's not an easy experience but i went all night and then early in the morning jesus showed up at the beach hear me somebody in the midst of your distress in the midst of your loss jesus is always showing up jesus will always show up in your life and so he showed up with a sense of humor and he said hey have you caught anything peter said we toil all night and we cut nothing then jesus said to him cast your net on the other side all you have to do in the midst of your problems put your trust in jesus christ obey his word [Applause] and he will make things better and so they obeyed jesus and cast their net on the other side and the bible says that they caught 150 fishes because they trust in jesus somebody tonight wherever you are in the confines of your home you have been doing this thing all by yourself you have been ignoring god you have been ignoring his presence you have been ignoring his power it is time this evening to give god a chance in your life it is time tonight to give god a chance in your life it is time to turn over everything to him and i will not say to you that when you turn everything the devil is going to leave you and things are going to fall in place no but god will always make a way of escape god will always come true david said i was young but now i'm old never seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread god will come through let me hasten on finish this message because god if he were the pillar of fire by night and the pillar of cloud by day for israel he will do it for you also you are mine you are mine you belong to god now isaiah says when you pass through the water when you pass through your fire when you pass to your greatest moment of distress and burden and bereavement god will still be by your side they shall not overcome thee they shall not overflow thee god has a way friends of taking our circumstances and making them into blessings god has a way of using our lime to make lemonade all he does is to add the sweetness of his grace the sweetness of his grace we pass friends through our fire we pass through our waters when the heavy losses of life reduces reduce our possessions and make us face the narrowness of means we are passing through our fire we are passing through our waters when we had everything to our comfort and in them in a moment in a short space of time we are reduced to nothingness we are passing through our waters we are passing through our fires when grievous disappointments overtake us and extinguish the brightest hope when when when when when our parts that has been lit by success has been darkened by distress we are walking through our fire we are going through our water when sickness assails us and our strength fails and we lie on our bed of helplessness and pain we are going through our fire we are going through our water when bereavement through its dark shadow on our whole broadway we are going through our fire we are going through our water when we have to say goodbye to the dearest on earth to us we are going through our water we are going through our fire when the failures of those whom we look up to for good are even great things when the failures and the examples that they said are not what we expect of them we are going through our water we are going through our fire but i want to say to us this evening that when we go through our fire when we go through our waters they shall not overflow us they shall not burn us because god is our refuge and strength a present help in the time of trouble somebody needs to shout hallelujah let me take it down now let me take it down because some of us are so distressed some of us are so pained some of us are suffering so much that you cannot even share it with others sometimes only your pillows knows the struggle that you're going through sometimes only your pillars know the tears that have been shed up but thanks be to god tears our language god understands and my bible tells me that when christ comes he will use his handkerchief of righteousness and god shall wipe away all tears from your eyes somebody needs to know in the midst of your trials better days are coming you let the preacher talk to you about better days so hold on in the midst of your trials hold on in the midst of your suffering hold on we've been with endure for a night but joy joy joy comes in the morning and your joy is coming your joy is coming one day you will smile again one day you will sing your song again one day joy will come in the morning you though you walk through the water though you go through the fire they shall not destroy you we're talking about nature isaiah uses the two elements of nature to describe our situation to describe our condition and isaiah is saying whatever you're going through no matter how difficult it is it shall not have the better of you and help me holy ghost because friends even those who have to say goodbye to their loved one sometimes our trials and difficulties will bring even to the end of death not all those who are sick will be healed not all those who are facing certain difficulties will have the ultimate victory in this life god will call a number of individuals to rest but i want to send it a message i want to send that a message that yet you will not have the last of god's children if god permits the breath of life to be taken from our bodies in this world there is a resurrection there is a resurrection so not only not even death can destroy the hope of god's people not even death can quench our joy not even death can overcome us because jesus christ is a resurrection and he's a life and death death cannot defeat us let me he's known let me hasten so god is our refuge and strength he is our sympathizing god he he is he's sympathizing presence he's with us god assures us of his presence in the time of trouble his sympathizing presence god will never leave you or forsake you when nobody else cares he cares when nobody else calls he is calling when nobody else is present he is present he will never leave us or forsake us god assures us of his limiting power his limiting power the rivers may rise high but they can't overflow the fire will rage but it cannot burn you his hands are upon the forces of evil god is rest in his hand upon the forces of evil and they cannot go beyond god's boundary god keeps the trouble god keeps our childs god keeps our difficulties in his limitation they cannot go out of god's providence god is present with his sustaining grace and he is saying to all of us my grace is sufficient for you the fire may rage around you the fire may rage around your children the fire may rage around your family but god's grace is able god is able and his grace is indeed sufficient god will bring you through your worst disaster but sometimes god has to pull us back so as to catapult us forward so sometimes when it seems as if god is not there sometimes when it seems as if we are going backward instead of moving forward god is just pulling us back and when he let us go we move forward i want you to know that when you put your trust in almighty god he will take you forward no water can stop your progress no fire can stop your progress god is taking us forward in the midst of our water in the midst of our fire god is moving us forward sometimes he has to empty us to fill us sometimes he has to put us down to lift us up sometimes he has to turn us right side up a right side down to get us right side of our he has to turn let me get it right he has to turn us upside down to get us right side up sometimes god has to shake us to wake us sometimes god has to move us to prove us sometimes god sends certain things our way not because he wants to destroy us not because he's angry at us not because he hates us but because he loves us and he wants to save us he wants to get our attention and so i say this evening no matter what your situation is god will take care of you god will take you through your water god will take you through your fire all you have to do is to put your trust and confidence in him and somebody at this moment is going through your water going through your fire but put your trust in almighty god don't complain don't doubt him but put your trust and confidence in him the bible tells us in the book of job job was the richest man in the east he was perfect in all his ways and in one day he lost all his kettles in one day he lost all his wealth he lost his family his children in one day job lost everything on his body was covered with sore the devil challenged god and god was able to boast on job and god said see him there all you do don't take his life and the devil took his cattle the devil took his family the devil placed swords upon his body if he sat down he was in pain if he stood up he was in pain if he lay down he was in pain putrefying sores no medication could help him no antibiotics could help him no bush medicine sores and he got a visit from some of his friends three of his friends and then they visited him and look at job where he is now and where he he was before they set the job it must be something that you did you did something previously run and god is punishing you his wife looked at him and said hon i can't bear to see you like this curse god and die just give up on god why is it that you still believe in god why is it that you're still holding on to god and god has allowed this to happen curse god and die but job said the lord give it you and the lord take it blessed be the name of the lord and then he continued saying though he slay me i cannot understand god's working but i will trust him still though he slay me yet will i trust him for i know my redeemer leave it i know my god is alive i know i can trust him and even though worms shall destroy this flesh even though worms shall destroy this body yet with my own eyes hallelujah i will see him not with the eyes of another and i will see him on the day when he stands on the day when he comes to claim this earth on the day when it comes to judge everybody on the day when everyone has to give an account i shall see him not with the eyes of another but i shall see him with my own eyes friends no matter what you're going through [Music] put your trust and confidence in jehovah god he will take care of you but one day when he comes you and i have to give an account of our lives to god we have to give an account because

you though you go to the fire they shall not burn you burn you not even scotch not even smoke the smell of smoke shall be upon you and if god has done so much for us one day we all have to give an account of our lives to god i say to somebody this evening halting between two opinions it is time to put your trust in god no matter what you're going through give god a chance in your life and i say
