“But these are written so that you may continue to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that believing in him you will have life by the power of his name.” John 20:31
Working out for Jesus is much different than working out to better yourself. To help ourselves to become healthier we might decide to walk, run, jog, ride a bicycle, lift weights, or use any other kind of exercise to help us increase our heart rate, improve weight loss or to improve lung function. There are many reasons to physically workout and they all lead to helping us to live longer in a stress-free environment.
Working out for Jesus, on the other hand, is a much different kind of workout. This workout is one that should always take place daily. It is a workout that benefits both us and our God in heaven. It involves prayer, praise, reading scripture, and good meditation skills. The benefits include developing good listening skills, increasing trust in Jesus, increasing faith in Jesus and increasing good conversation with our God in heaven. These exercises must be routinely maintained so that they become a part of us. These exercises must be a part of our everyday existence. As we maintain these workouts, we will increasingly become more confident in Jesus as the truth and the life we need to be successful and live eternally with Him. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
