Recently I decided to start doing P90X workout programs. Now, I know what most of you are thinking, intensity. That is how it should be, however, it is only what you make it. This is what I mean, If you pop in the DVD and just look at the screen while sitting on the couch as they work out, the intensity is not there at all.
If you just look at the DVD and never even put it in your DVD player, the intensity is not there. If you only do half of the excersizes, most likely, the intensity is not fully there. But lets go a little further.
What is the consequence if the intensity is not there? That means that the growth is not there. The excersizes are made to literally break your muscles so that they may grow back bigger and stronger than they were before! This wont happen by just staring at the DVD!
When it comes to our growth in fighting sin, looking at our Bible sitting on the countertop doesnt help. Opening the Bible in the middle so that the impression that someone reads it is given does not help you grow. Its reading, believing, and practicing the word of God is what gives you the strength! The intensity and endurance of following the word of God is what it takes for the growth against sin!
