Tell Your Body What to Do The best way to get any part of your body under control is to find out what the Words says on the subject. Once you discover that, be a doer of the Word. Listen to what the Holy Spirit prompts you to do and make your body obey His leading. Your body should not dictate to you what you will do. You should dictate to your body what it will do. You are the only who can discipline your body and bring it under the control of your spirit. If you don’t, you will decrease your sensitivity to what the Holy Spirit is saying to your heart. Your entire Christian walk will be hindered if your body is not kept under the control of your spirit. Action Plan: “Decide today to become spirit-ruled, not body-ruled. Speak by faith, “I bring my body under the control of my spirit.” Then put action to your words by daily presenting your body to God. You can lay aside those weights that are hindering you, because the Bible says you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you (Phil. 4:13)” I pray that these excerpts on Putting your Spirit in Charge have been a blessing to you. That you have a better understanding of why you have not been successful in achieving and sustaining your healthy eating goals. I pray that your eyes of your understanding have been enlighten. That you may know the hope of your calling (Eph. 1:18). If you have been blessed by this blog, write me and tell me about it. I would love to hear from you.
