While speaking on Sunday, 31 August, 2014 during a worldwide
satellite broadcast to members of his church, Kumuyi urged Nigerians to
develop good health habits to avoid contracting the deadly Ebola Virus
Disease, EVD. Kumuyi also challenged Nigerians to do more for their safety and health, aside praying.
“Many people have the idea that it is only prayer that gets them well and make them whole and healthy.
“If you look at the Scriptures, you will discover that there are a number of things that contribute to our healing and health.
“These things include our habits, holiness, hope, home, happiness, hospitality and hygiene,” Kumuyi said while speaking on the topic, ‘Healing and Health for the Whole Man’.
He also added that people should not neglect basic health rules that will keep them from contracting the Ebola Virus.
“Hygiene plays a great part in our health. The Ebola epidemic
that people just recognised in Nigeria was first discovered in 1976.
It’s been on for a long time.
“If you’re not hygienic, you can contract the disease. For
example, If you don’t wash your hands often, or you stay with someone
who has the disease, it is contagious; and if there is the passing of
fluids from one person to another, you may also get it. But if you keep
yourself hygienic, it keeps sicknesses from coming upon you. That’s why
you read in the Old Testament, ‘touch not the unclean things’,” he added.
While quoting from Proverbs 13 verse 3, Kumuyi said the misuse of the
tongue had also brought untold suffering and sickness on some people.
He urged sick folks to anchor their hope on Christ, adding that there
was provision for their healing in the Scriptures if they believe.
