If You Want To Live Long, Read This (part 1)

It is a surprise seeing a Pastor who owns a church to also be running a health school, with hundreds of people flocking into the school, one cannot but wonder what it is all about. That was our thought when last week we went to Rapha Healthy living Institute at Ikeja Lagos, where people were been giving lectures about Healthy Living, healing and vitality.

Rapha Healthy Living Institute is a school founded about 2years ago by Tony Akinyemi an America trained natural health expert. The sole aim of the school is not about making money but to raise healthy people, help people recover from hitherto incurable diseases, to raise Healthy living Ambassadors, who will propagate same wherever they find themselves.

The school is all out to impact people with the knowledge of healthy living.

Rev Tony said and I quote’ “What people need is not more medication but more education”

He told his students who gathered in their numbers from within and outside the country that “Once people are well educated about the necessary steps to take, then diseases will be a thing of the past. Truth is,you can live your whole life without falling sick but it doesn’t just happen on a platter of gold. There are things you need to do; which basically are all about simple addition and subtraction. Eliminating harmful things and replacing them with the healthy ones”

According to him “by simple change of life style, eating a well-balanced diet and engaging in exercise can prolong the number of your days? Make you live above diseases like Diabetes, Arthritis and even cancer. But as simple as it seems, people still find it difficult to do them and that’s why the number of people that have died through forks and knives (what they ate) and sedentary living are more than people killed by guns and bullets.

The importance of healthy living cannot be overemphasized, you just have to change because that’s inevitable and the result is beneficial”

According to him “You cannot be doing the wrong thing and expect to have the right result. Whatsoever you sow, that you shall also reap.

“The first principle for improving health is KNOWLEDGE; and the second principle is to eliminate health-destroying substances and habits from our lives. The second principle is derived from the first, because until we know what is right, we may not be able to do what is right.

He said, Remember, God gave us a prescription from the Bible; Genesis 1:29,” And God said, Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.”

At the last session of the school, we had interview sessions with a lot of students who are in the module 2 of the school to share their experiences with Family Parliament team and we got testimonies about how the school has helped in changing their lives completely. Helping many to reverse diseases and restore total health through the power of information which leads to change of lifestyle and doing vigorous exercise.

Many that were living with diabetes arthritis, Fibroid etc that are now totally cured without drug shared their amazing testimonies. You will read the testimonies of women giving birth in their fifties and many more in the part two of our report on this uncommon school.

So, join us on this journey as we bring you people’s living testimonies and what you need to do to stay healthy for life.
