Discovery To Destiny Model
*Good intentions
** Boredom
And exercising knowledge develops self-control, and in exercising self-control develops steadfastness. Patient endurance, and in exercising steadfastness develop godliness. – 2 Peter 1:6
If you are striving for righteousness you need to win the battle against your carnal flesh. Exercise and nutrition are the way to overcome gluttony and sloth.
Don’t allow the flesh or senses dicate your outcome. – Romans 8
Tug of War
Holy Spirt <- Soul/Will/ Emotions -> Carnal Body <- Senses
You experience life through your senses through your carnal nature, your body which by default is pulling you away from pursuing a righteous life.
Overcoming the flesh is possible and assist you in the pursuit of righteousness.
As an example, let’s look at:
1) Exercise
- Exercise: HIIT and TABATA
- Extremely efficient utilisation of time works on strength and cardio.
- Choose work duration and rest period = 50%
- Repeat over and over again.
- TABATA = 4min rest, and repeat 4 times.
2) Nutrition
- What, when, and how much?
- Fasting
- Cut out sugar
- Reduced refined carbs
- Use vegetable oil/ seed oil
2. Now we look at the Discovery to Destiny Model 1-6
