In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken, and unto dust shalt thou return.
-- Gen. 3:19 (KJV)
Notice that this verse states that man must work before eating. Why are so many people obese? Too many people are overweight because they eat without working. Work then eat. The reward for working is food.
The second part of this verse lets us know that we all return to the dust after death. If the Bible was not true, then nobody would be buried six feet under.
Numerical Analysis: The numerical pattern for this verse is 3,1,4,9. (3) To stay in the Spirit, realize that you must work before eating. (1) Follow God until you die. (4) To stay in God's Word, realize that He formed you from the dust of the ground. (9) To overturn evil, realize that we all will have to return to the ground once we die.
