Movement Changes You

Why is movement important? Movement brings you from one place to another, allowing exploration, interaction, and a response to your environment.

There are so many reasons why you should move your body. You moved your body to get out of bed this morning, when you left for school or work, when you went for a run, played basketball, or walked your dog. In each case, you made the choice to move your body.

Movement not only brings physical results but also provides benefits like endorphin release, enjoyment, a sense of accomplishment, and other elements that, although unseen, are extremely valuable to your well-being. You are not the same before and after you move.

As you connect with God through Movement, He can spiritually take you from where you are to where He wants you to be. It’s not just about how you move — it’s about what happens within you as you move. Movement transforms you, both in your physical surroundings and in your spiritual environment.

Prayer

Lord, thank You for giving me life. In You, I live, I move, and I have my being. Whether I’m moving or I’m at rest, I desire to be a living sacrifice, a pleasing aroma to You. Holy Spirit, show me how to live like this. Amen.

Application

Ask God, “How can I offer my body as a living sacrifice to You today?” and write down what you hear. Meditate on what it means to be a living sacrifice through movement.
