Dear Father, I understand that the food we eat plays one of the most important roles in our health and the proper functioning of our bodies.
Help me to be sensible and use wisdom regarding what type of food I eat. Help me to not eat out of habit or for social enjoyment, but only when I am hungry.
Help me to glorify You in my body and not eat foods that bring sickness, disease, or harm to my body. Help me to be disciplined to not overeat or eat late at night. Lord, I ask You to help me control my appetite instead of indulging my flesh. Lord, give me wisdom to choose the best eating plan for me and my family.
Help me to not let the lust of my flesh control and dictate my eating habits. Before I eat anything, help me to consider the nutritional value and benefit, or the harm that the food will bring to my body. Help me to develop healthy eating habits so my body will be strong and healthy, that I may fulfill the plans and purposes You have for me. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

In November 1975, Buddy and Pat Harrison launched Harrison House Publishers, releasing their first titles in 1976. Since then, Harrison House has published and distributed more than 100 million books in 42 languages and in more than 175 countries. Since Dr. Harrison's homegoing in November of 1998, Harrison House has continued to publish the uncompromised Word of God.
2009 brought unprecedented changes to the publishing world, and Harrison House experienced changes as well. Press Group, a local printer and vendor, purchased Harrison House in April 2009, merging two complementary companies into one. With printing facilities, warehousing, and technology now under one roof, Harrison House is able to provide faster turn times, more accurate order processing, and better stock levels than ever before. We are truly poised to further the vision God put in the hearts of Buddy and Pat Harrison over 30 years ago: taking the Word of God to the world, impacting generations for His Kingdom.
