Get a 'ripped' faith relationship with Jesus!

Likewise, reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:11
In this world of extreme exercises for our physical bodies…are you submitting your spiritual health and well being to a rigorous workout?
Are you exercising your faith muscles to get a ‘ripped’ faith relationship with Jesus?
You are a blood-bought body of Jesus Christ; no weapon formed against you shall prosper.
Here is an exercise to get a spiritually healthy six-pack that will reckon you dead to sin.
Believe and confess, at the point of temptation, that you are dead to your specific sin. Believe and declare your faith, at the point of temptation, that you are alive unto God through Jesus Christ.
As with exercising your physical body, repetition is a critical factor.
A ‘rep’ is the number of times you do the same movement in a set: Example: Every push-up is one rep, and 20 push-ups make a set.
You do the reps, while God spots you.
Every rep of ‘I am dead to sin’ confession and every rep of ‘I am alive through Christ’ declaration builds your spiritual muscles.
Every set strengthens you, while building a mind, body and spirit memory connection that will establish a pattern of submission, discipline, praise, faith…and increased endurance to finish well.
You do the reps; Jesus already did the heavy lifting.
