I have a health bar system and i need the health to be above the bar that it is in so that it appears as if the bar is slowly draining but for some reason it is behind I don't get this?

How do I make the health take preference over the bar in the GUI?

You can use the z position to set the rendering depth. The lower it is, the more in front it should be

If your GUI textures are drawn from different components, you can also set GUI.depth in the various OnGUI() methods ... to make Component1 draw over top of Component2:

Component1:

void OnGUI()
{
    GUI.depth = 1;
    ...
}

Component2:

void OnGUI()
{
    GUI.depth = 2;
    ...
}
