Spiritual fitness

"Although he did not remove the high places from Israel, Asa’s heart was fully committed to the Lord all his life."

2 Chronicles 15:17

God's training is different than human training. His goal is that you seek him - your creator and the creator of all life. He desires to renew your heart and make and make you his. To be his, you must do as Jesus did and as he says. We must obey his ways - his word and be saved in the name of the one and only living God - Christ Jesus.

To be fit with God is too know his ways - it is to be trained in all situations to see his glory - to hear his voice - to be a vessel of transport for the Holy Spirit - to let God Almighty - Jesus Christ live in me.

Asa was not complete in obedience to God as noted, "...he did not remove the high places...". While his focus on the whole of God was committed, he was not compliant in all things. Be careful not to make human decisions about what is and is not important to God, who is a spirit.

In each of us there are areas of great strength in obedience to God, then there is this one thing that we make excuses for as being inconsequential to God. If it is a subject matter to which the Lord continually causes you to revisit, stop the action at once. God is always patient, but at once you are aware of the change he desires you to make, it is time to make the change.

God is constant - he is always alive - he is always love. Let your heart and mind be free of human distraction and commit in all things to align your human will to that of the Holy Spirit. Be diligent in building spiritual strength. Just as you watch what you eat to maintain health, so too is the truth of the Spirit inside. Spiritual fitness takes dedication and commitment like all accomplishments in life.
