Stay True!

What is spiritual fitness? What is physical fitness?
Physical exercise and wholesome foods keep the bodily functions in good shape.

I Timothy 4: 1 -16

Physical exercise has some value; however, spiritual exercise is much more important for it promises a reward in both this life and the next. Spend your time and energy in training yourself for spiritual fitness.

How do you do this? Be an example. How?
1. In your teaching
2. In the way you live
3. In your love
4. In your faith
5. In your purity
How can we be an example? Focus on reading the Scriptures, encouraging the believers, and teaching them.

We must not neglect our spiritual gift. How do we not neglect this spiritual gift?

1. Throw yourself into your tasks so that everyone will see your progress.
2. Stay true to what is right. Why? God will save you and those who hear.
3. Never speak harshly to an older man. Why? Appeal to him repectfully as though he were your own father.
4.Talk to younger men as though they were your younger brother.
5. Treat older women as you would your mother.
6. Treat younger women with all purity as your own sisters.

Stay true to being a good servant of Christ Jesus.

What happens if we do not stay true?
We will follow lying spirits and teachings that come from demons. Who are the demons?
1. They are teachers who are hypocrites and liars. They pretend to be religious, but their consciences are dead.
2. They will say it wrong to be married.
3. They will say it is wrong to eat certain foods.

However, God created those foods good to be eaten with "thanksgiving" by people who know and believe the truth.
Since everything God created is good, we should not reject any of it. We may receive it gladly, with thankful hearts. For we know it is made holy by the word of God and prayer.

Recently, just yesterday our state did not pass the real (raw) milk bill. In our state it is illegal to sell and buy raw cow's milk.
Our state legislators are telling us good wholesome mik is not good for us to drink. It must be pasteurized and altered. That says that God lied about His creation. In other words , He didn't make everything good. Man has to alter our milk and foods to make it safe for us. Will you serve God or man? Who is right?

STAY TRUE TO BEING A GOOD SERVANT OF CHRIST JESUS! My dear friends if you have to drink pasteruized milk, please do so with a grateful and prayerful heart; for by doing so it is made holy by the word of God and prayer. The Almighty power of God comes to our rescue when we are thankful and grateful for what we have now.

Remember, your body is the temple of God. Treat it holy as the Spirit of God resides in you. God made everything good and He made it just right for us. Keep a close watch on yourself and on your teaching. Stay true to what is right, and God will save you and those who hear you.
Without question, this is the great mystery of our faith........ 1 Tim. 3:16

1 Timothy 4: 1- 16 (NLT)
STAY TRUE!

You Really Mean Whatever I Say or Do?

Whatever I say or do, let it be a representative of the Lord Jesus, and all the while giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
Colossians 3:17 (NLT)

Does this not validates the importance of attitude with gratitude?
Whatever I SAY or DO???? WHATEVER????



When you represent someone, how important is it to be true to that person you are representing?
When you represent someone then you must have to know that person on a very intimate level to be true to them in your presentation.

Represent means to express; stand for, act or speak for; portray.

Do you represent the Lord Jesus Christ in everything you say or do?

Then grab some attitude with gratitude now. When we represent Christ in what we say or do, at the same time we are giving thanks to Him through God. WOW!

The Secret

The Secret is out so it's no longer a secret is it? If you haven't seen "the secret" movie, by all means watch it. Is it based on the spiritual law of God? You have to make that judgment call for yourself and then the secret will work for you in your life. Thoughts become things so choose the good ones. If you want to be a millionaire, (and how is a millionaire determined) you must first think and act like a millionaire.

The following was written by James A. Ray
If you've ever heard me speak or read any of my books, you've probably heard me say, "The Latin root of the word desire means 'of the Father.'" How cool is that?

What is it you really want in your life? What do you desire? What gets you passionate? When you have a desire for something, it's your Higher Self speaking, prodding, wishing you to grow.

Understand that your Creator doesn't want you to have toys and things. Your Creator doesn't want you to do certain things. Your Creator wants you to become the person necessary to have and do those things. Are you with me?

Spirit is always for fuller expression and expansion...

Your Creator wants you to grow.

I remember years ago hearing one of my mentors say, "Decide to be a millionaire, but not for the green slips of paper. Do it for who you will have to become to get there." When I heard him say that, I decided to follow his challenge.

Now, I challenge you to join the adventure.

You see, your current results are a direct reflection of the person you have become up to this point. Why is it that those who win the lottery in our country, almost without exception, are flat broke and miserable within 2 years? It's because they have not yet become the type of person necessary to live at that particular level of income and life.

It takes a bigger person to make $100,000 per year than one who makes $10,000 per year... and an even bigger person to make $100,000 per month than one who makes $10,000 per month.

Understand, I did not say a "better" person...

There isn't one of us that's better than anyone else. We've all been given the same potential from our Creator. But it does take a "bigger" person. It takes a person who is willing to stretch, take risks and massive action and have tremendous faith.

There is only one objective in this life: to fully expand and grow into your full capability. Your desire is calling you... challenging you to take the next peak, to become the person necessary to rise above your current plateau... No matter how favorable it may currently be.

The great mythologist Joseph Campbell said, "The only question in life is whether or not you are going to answer a hearty 'Yes!' to your adventure." Answer YES! Believe in yourself. Take the leap of faith. You'll be glad you did and your life will be magnificent!

To your continued wealth and happiness by James Arthur Ray



Now James has good thought processes going on here. Your Higher Self is the Spirit of God living within you. Call it what you may, it's God within! Isn't this why the secret is out so God will be glorified in whatever you choose to do for a greater good with your millionaire mindset? Go for it! What do you want to do for a higher good? What's your purpose? www.foragreatergood.net
Think about your life. You can't hide from the law of attraction whether it is negative or positive in your life.
Attract the good by your good thoughts.
