 (Fourth part) 

Memory verse (1Tim4:8) " For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come ".

Every race demands fitness. It takes great training and rigorous exercises to acquire the fitness that can enable the athlete to win the race. When you watch these top world class athletes, they exhibit a high level of fitness. They wake up early every day for their exercises. They do these tough exercises daily. All their life is exercises. They have to work on their body until they bring it to the winning shape. How you fair in the training determines how you fair in the championships. They train in secret but they compete in the public. What people see in the racing field shows them what the athlete was doing in the training place.

Spiritual race is won because of great spiritual exercises in your secret life. Before David killed Goliath, he had killed lions and bears in the secret. There must be spiritual exercises going on in our daily life to prepare us, train us, equip us strengthen us until we acquire a winning attitudes, shape and heart. We become champions in the secret place. It’s the secret place that develop heroes, mighty warriors, mighty ministers, victorious men and women. Do you have a training place? Where is your secret place that is developing a champion out of you; a place of prayer, a place of communion with God, a place of illumination in God’s word, a place where you worship God in secret, a place of spiritual battles where you kill spiritual bears and lions of lust, the flesh etc? How often do you visit your training place? How many hours do you spend there? How do you use your time while in your secret place? The way you appear in the public show who you are in your training grounds. There should be great spiritual activity in our secret place, dynamic living worship in spirit and truth, intense communion with God, groaning in prayers. This is a great place, this is where battles are won, where all what Satan planted are uprooted, where his trap are destroyed, where your day is made from, a place of warfare where arrows of Satan are broken, where his demons are scattered and his plans are frustrated. The quality of my day is always determined by the quality of my time in the secret place.
