Health Message (February 21, 2026)

Good Sabbath Church Family,

Ellen White repeatedly taught that the health reform message was

part of God’s end-time preparation, helping His people stand through

the final crisis by strengthening mind, body, and spiritual discernment.

“The health reform is one branch of the great work which is to fit a

people for the coming of the Lord.”— Counsels on Diet and Foods,

p. 69

As followers of Christ, we cannot minimize the importance of a good

clean diet. It is Gods design to bring us physical strength and

clarity of mind. Sister White saw the health message not as optional,

but as a protective gift for God’s people.

“The light God has given on health reform is for our salvation and the

salvation of the world.”— Counsels on Diet and Foods, p. 461

Ellen White warned that in the last days, meat would become

increasingly unsafe due to disease and corruption in the food supply.

“The time will come when we may have to discard some of the

articles of diet we now use, such as milk, cream, and eggs… Disease

in animals is increasing in proportion to the increase of wickedness

among men.”— Counsels on Diet and Foods, p. 349 (also in

Testimonies, vol. 7)

“Animals are becoming more and more diseased, and it will not be

long until animal food will be discarded by many besides Seventh-day

Adventists.”— Counsels on Diet and Foods, p. 385

I encourage our prayers for conviction on God’s health message, that

He would prepare us for what we must endure in the end, and use

us to fully bless others through His message.

May God Bless Your Journey to Good Health!
