Faithfully Fit
Faithful - Steadfast, loyal, and
fixed. Fit - Good physical condition.
Romans 12-1:
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by
the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice,
holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Jesus was effective on the cross only because he was our living
sacrifice, giving himself. Through his sacrifice salvation would be
made possible for whosoever believeth.This sacrifice at Calvary was
because of the mercies of God toward us all. Just as Jesus presented his
body, our body is also to be presented, not as a sacrifice for
sin, for Christ has already done that, but as a body that is holy. God
lives in our bodies, therefore, we must present our bodies holy to him. "This
is our reasonable service." This includes believing God for a
healthy body. Taking care of our body, shunning the very appearance of
evil with our body, and allowing the spirit of God within to have to
have control of our body as an instrument of his use. Remember
Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens
me." So let us be steadfast, loyal, fixed, and in good physical
condition.
