LAUGHING; AN ANTIDOTE FOR HEALING

LAUGHING; AN ANTIDOTE FOR HEALING Happy people are healthy people! This statement is more than just a cliché; it’s actually supported by the Scriptures. Some men are of the illusion that masculinity and cheerfulness don’t mix; they assume that being a man means they have to be Very serious all the time. Some others are afraid to laugh; if they caught themselves laughing, they’ll quickly stop. “How could I have been laughing?; Something is wrong with me”, they would reason within themselves. Such people always have tales of sickness, sorrow and pain. Interestingly, one very important remedy for sick people to change their situation and receive their healing is to laugh! The Bible says in Proverbs 17:22, “If you are cheerful, you feel good, if you are sad, you will hurt all over” (CEV). You have to learn to laugh even when you don’t feel like it. The devil will ask you: “why are you laughing? Can’t you see all the problems you are faced with?” Don’t pay attention to him; you are simply acting on the Word of God. God, in all His majesty and supremacy laughs. He is not a sadist who is always frowning and looking serious all the time. The Bible says, “In heaven He laughs as He sits on the throne…” (Psalm 2:4 CEV). So, if the one who owns the whole world can laugh, why shouldn’t you? When you make this a very important part of your life, your body will always be healthy and you will always have joy of in your spirit. It may start superficially, but don’t stop until it gets into your spirit. People may think you are out of your mind, but they don’t count. When you laugh more, your environment will become more conducive for the Holy Spirit to work in your life. Glory to God!=D \=D/
