Am I In Shape?

Driving to the grocery store, seen a minister out jogging and it prompted me to think am I spiritually fit? How it hurts at first when we are getting in shape. Then we get conditioned to withstand more and slowly become more ready.

Not just in works, not for salvation but for prevailing against Satan to please the Lord. So we don't fall in the wilderness. So we don't get tired and quit. So we are not like the seed that fell on types of the ground parable where we believe at first, then fall away when challenges.

Job 13:23 How many are mine iniquities and sins? Make me to know my transgressions and my sin.

Thought: Job was a righteous man. "know my ... sins".

Proverbs 6:9 How long wilt thou sleep ... o sluggard (Mike).

Random Notes on message:

God loves you goes with pleasing God.

Confess our sins

Judge ourselves

The whole message felt like confessing your sins and turning away!

Is righteousness continually seeking God's forgiving spirit?

Thank you, God, for all the blessings in my life.
