Victoria Osteen

And then he began to ask me to do a few movements, just daily movements, things we do all the time, reach to the side, bend over, stretch up, just some different things, walk back, walk forth.

Then he looked right at me and he said, Victoria, he said, your core is weak.

He said, you need to build up your inner core muscles.

He said, you know, when we go through the day, we feel like that, you know, our extremities do all the work.

So we'll grab something, we react to something.

And he said, but really, if you have a strong core, it engages your core first.

And then your core helps your body move without injury.

And he said, if you don't engage and start working on this core, he said, these injuries could become more frequent and they could get worse with time.

Do you know that's how our inner man works?

See, our inner man is the core of who we are.

It's our identity.

Our inner man controls our attitudes and it regulates our thoughts.

See, when we have a strong inner man, it engages the rest of our life and helps our life become easier.

In fact, the injuries that we suffer sometime is because we're not engaging our spiritual man.

We're saying things we shouldn't.

We're in strife with our spouse.

We're pushing our children away.

We're not liking our job, so it's not helping us any.

Because see, our extremities are doing it.

It's called the flesh.
