We all know that cardio workouts are good for us; It's a way to burn fat, maintain muscles and increase your energy levels among many other positive results. So when is the last time we did spiritual cardio? We don't have to purchase DVDs, a gym membership or equipment to do it, all we have to do is open the Word of God for our instructions. Running is one of the simplest, yet most highly recommended workouts; physically and spiritually!
2 Timothy 2:22 says, "Run from anything that stimulates youthful lusts. Instead, pursue righteous living, faithfulness, love, and peace. Enjoy the companionship of those who call on the Lord with pure hearts."
Hebrews 12:1 "...let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us..."
The truth is, goodness and mercy may follow us, but sin is not that far behind. We're not running because we're afraid, we're running because we are strengthening our spiritual muscles; we're increasing our endurance; we're burning off those old things; and we're building our faith and confidence in Christ! Focus on the change that comes from working in the spirit realm and watch the blessings pour in!
