Spiritual Exercise 

 

Hebr 5:14 (KJS) But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

I. WE HAVE SPIRITUAL SENSES.

 

  • Spiritual eyes.

  • Spiritual ears.

  • By using our spiritual senses, we become able to discern what God calls good and evil.

  • The deep things of God belong to those who are using their spiritual senses.

 

II. WE LIVE BY FAITH.

  • We must not let what we see with our natural eyes over rule what the Word says.

  • What we see written in the Word is greater then what it may seem like, when looked at through our natural eyes.

  • What we see and hear causes thoughts in our mind.

2Cor 10:4 (KJS) (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

  • The Word of God is a weapon that can be used to change thoughts of hopelessness,  that come into our mind by what we see and hear in our every day life, into thoughts of overcoming.

  • In order to do this we must trust that Gods Word is true.

Prov 3:5 (KJS) Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

 

III. WE MUST EXERCISE OUR SPIRITUAL SENSES DAILY. 

Deut 6:6 (KJS) And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

  • Gods Word is life and health.

Prov 4:20 (KJS) My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they [are] life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it [are] the issues of life.

  • It will never be enough just to know what His Word says, we must also DO what His Word says.

 

IV. WE WILL GROW BY REASON OF USE.

  • No one becomes skilled in Gods Word overnight.

  • The more you exercise the more you will grow.
