Herbs, God's gift to mankind


HERBS: GOD’S GIFT TO MANKIND


Proverbs 27:25 “The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.”

Before drugs were invented all medicine was herbal. Most drugs have unpleasant side effects and today people are looking to herbal medicine for healing. Some herbalists say that God gave us a plant to treat every illness. Prevention Magazine comments: “Though herbs have been used for hundreds of years to heal, scientists are finally starting to substantiate these plants' abilities to alleviate arthritis pain, reduce high blood sugar and cholesterol, and help with many other conditions. They're even discovering amazing new powers in some herbs, such as the ability to kill cancer cells and help problem drinkers curb their alcohol intake. "Herbs and other natural remedies can be as effective as traditional treatments, often without the same negative side effects," says Roberta Lee, MD, medical director of the Continuum Center for Health and Healing at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City. So here are 10 super healers you'll want to add to the all-natural section of your medicine cabinet--and even to your favorite recipes! Folding one or two of them into your cooking every day can yield big benefits.”
According to Prevention magazine the top ten herbs for healing are turmeric, cinnamon, Holy Basil, St. John’s Wort, garlic, Andrographis, Sea Buckthorn, Kudzu, ginger, and Rosemary. Hebrews 6:7 says, “ For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:” Herbs can be a source of healing, but make sure that they don’t conflict with your prescription medication. Have you thanked the Creator for herbs lately?
