WHAT DO YOU EXERCISE
WHAT DO YOU EXERCISE
Physical exercise has some value, but spiritual exercise is much
More important, for it promises a reward in both this life and the next.
(1 Timothy 4:8 (NLT)
Our society places way too much emphasis on the physical appearances of people while the spiritual aspects of their lives are hidden from even themselves.
We are taught from an early age that we need to "put on a good face." We are told that physical perfection is to be valued. We are constantly bombarded with media propaganda touting the virtues of the latest exercise craze or the latest diet, and, yes, even the latest cosmetic surgery technique. All of these are designed to make us feel good about our outward appearance while ignoring the inner spiritual issues.
We cannot hide behind physical facades forever. No matter what people can do with exercise and medical technologies, all of us will grow old. All of us will eventually die. Contrary to the saying, he who has the most toys does not win. We have not been placed on this earth to behave vainly and in a superficial and shallow manner. We have been lied to by Satan. God desires for us to seek Him and His Word!
We are to exercise our spiritual side, for it is eternal. We have accepted the lies of the enemy as the truth. We have been told to focus on the fleeting while ignoring the aspects of our existence that may last forever. We cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven if we have not prepared for this. How we are to prepare is simple.
We must accept Jesus as our personal Lord and Savior, and then focus on following God's Word. We must spend time within it on each and every day. We must exercise our faith.
