You are in training on earth to rule and reign with Me. Physical training is often painful, but when you are faithful in your physical exercises daily, strength comes into your body and your muscles and joints will receive the nutrition needed. The pain you experienced when you first started a physical exercise workout program will begin to lessen day by day.
The proper diet and the proper amount of exercise daily will always benefit you physically. The same is true in your spiritual life. A daily diet of My Word and the daily exercise of prayer and communion with Me will help you grow spiritually.
The pain that you experience in spiritual training is the pain of denying your own flesh. As long as you live on earth, the lust of your flesh, the lust of your eyes, and the lust of the pride of life will cry out to be satisfied. As you spend more time with Me, the sound of the cries of the lusts of your soul will be smothered by the voice of My Spirit. Stay filled with My Spirit today and you will not give in to your fleshly lusts.
