How Did I Get Here?

Alisa Keeton — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 09:09:07 -0800

I am always in awe, when I witness God's glory. Just to give you an example, I still ask the question, How Did I Get Here? How did I click on revelationwellness.org? Why did I feel the desire to click on the Instructor Training button and request more information?

God keeps answering me in such profound ways because He has called Alisa Keeton, founder of Revelation Wellness to do His work with the knowledge, the strength and the vision He has given her. The desire to help train and teach others to be healthy and whole in His name. With the Instructor Training Program, the Weigh Less to Feed More initative, loving God and loving others, and the fitness classes, she is doing just that!

Because of Alisa's obedience, instructors such as Debi Raines and Melissa Sy and Pamela Skinner, are raising the bar of Revelation Wellness. They have, together with other instructors, started forming a community of people who has a desire and a calling to press into Jesus to be healthy and whole. Visit their website to see how God is using them for His glory! www.FitnessAndFaithNW.com

When you visit Revelationwellness.org, ask God how did I get here and then press into that desire to click that button! God will put us in the place, we just have to do the work, with and in Him.

"BOOM!" - Your Weekly WorkIN - Christian Fitness- Faith & Wellness

Alisa Keeton — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 12:48:04 -0800

Ever feel caught between two worlds? We know that God keeps telling us good and new things about who we are in Him, the power we have and the fear we are not to have. But yet we don't feel that power most days. We make God so small because we don't feel anything special is happening. And then a whisper flits over our face. The whisper that says "Have hope." His hope lights reignites the flame. I can promise you this, if you keep the flame lit the BOOM is coming. The glory of God will break forth. Your breakthrough hinges on your faithfulness! Lose your quit.

Like Paul, I pray "also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, - Ephesians 1:18-19

Peace.

At Home WorkOUT #14 - "He's Not Holding Out" - Christian Fitness - Faith & Wellness

Alisa Keeton — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 18:42:57 -0800

By now you have clicked into the fact that these workouts are not about working out calories we consumed the night before, but about the working OUT of our salvation. If you are doing these workOUTs and workINs it's because you don't want to sit back any longer and live the comfortable life.

1 Peter 4:19 says " So then those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good." Hear me when I say to you that not a drop of your sweat or a muscle that aches goes unnoticed by the One who created you. Stay committed. Committed people stay whole. Committed people stay strong. Committed people are a powerful force to be reckoned with.

Please let us know how you are doing. Come to Facebook (www.facebok.com/revelationwell) and tell us what's going on in your body & mind. You do not want to do this alone.

You are a Revelationist!

Peace.
Alisa

Christians Bounce!

Alisa Keeton — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:16:40 -0800

In church on Sunday, a member stood up to testify about how she fell off a 14ft. ladder and is thankful that she is able to walk into church and raise her hands up and give Him praise. She was so blessed that she didn't break anything or suffered from a serious injury.

My mother delivered the sermon that day and the Holy Spirit got into her. The next thing I knew, she had fallen backwards, just missing a wooden bench. The only thing I could see was the church members crowding around her in horror. Some would have thought that I would have pounced to my mom's rescue, but it was just the opposite. I walked over to her calmly and just started praying.

The thing that came to my mind at that moment was the Rudolph the Red-nose Reindeer cartoon where they were confronted with the snow monster. The snow monster fell off the mountain and everyone thought he was dead. The little man that was fighting the snow monster made a statement, "didn't I tell you that boumbles bounce!?" That's when it hit me. Christians Bounce. After service, I asked her if she was ok and did she hurt anything. She said," no, I feel great"! I asked her if she knew that Christians Bounce?!

When you move with the Holy Spirit, there is no fear, no expectations. It's just moving in His strength and in His guidance. He will cover you and protect you in the armor of grace. This is what we do in our Revelation Wellness Teacher training and with our Christian Fitness DVD's, 20-15-10 and H.I.I.T.

We never know how God wants us to move into His word and how he plans on using us.We always have to be ever so ready. We do know that He doesn't want us to be lazy in praising Him. Revelation Wellness is passionate about seeing the body of Christ, be the body of Christ, physically and spiritually, so we can serve well and fulfill the call on our lives.

If you are interested in becoming a Revelation Fitness Instructor that wants to put the "work" in a workout, by the creation for the Creator or just want to get Fit, ignite your Spirit and give new meaning and purpose to being healthy and whole,then check out our website for more information at, www.revelationwellness.org.

Why Get A Christian Fitness DVD?

Alisa Keeton — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 05:17:15 -0800

One day, as I was coming in from work, I noticed something about myself. I did the same routine everyday. I cut on the lights, put my purse and keys at the same location, hung my jacket on the same chair, took off my shoes and went into the kitchen to get something to drink. I proceeded into the living room, clicked on the tv and there is where I sat for a good 20 minutes or so. I have the same routine in just about everything I do. Why? Because it was a habit and it was comfortable. I didn't have to think, I didn't have to organize it, I didn't have to do anything unfamiliar.

This is crazy! My life is just going right by me in my comfortable stillness. Enough already! My body was showing it. The aches and pains that started to creep in, and I watched the pouch forming around my waist pop out, as I unbuttoned my pants, ugh! I noticed the slowness of my movements and the shallowness of my breath. The scripture about dry bones came to mind.

Ezekiel 37:4-5, "Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! I will make breath enter you and you will come to life."

I want more, I want life, I want breath, I want movement!! Don't you? Not only do I want it, I need it and God commands it of me. To move myself out of my comfortable stillness, into a sometimes, uncomfortable but joyful breath of life, freedom, and heart pounding excitement.

If this sounds even a little like you, then do what I did! Get Healthy and Whole with Revelation Wellness. A good start is to purchase a Christian Fitness DVD! What a great way to get movement, to get strong in your dry bones by breathing in the Breathe of God all the while getting healthy and whole. Revelation Wellness Christian Fitness DVDs, 20-10-15 and HITTS, can make all the difference. You should start somewhere, break that habit of repetition and come out of your comfort zone for 45 minutes!

Live on Purpose!

Your Temple or the Holy Spirit's?

Alisa Keeton — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 16:27:36 -0800

Why is it so hard to keep our bodies healthy? I am doing the Daniel fast for the next 2 weeks and it has been a severe struggle for me this time. My fasting and prayers have of course been for God to give me the strength that I need to keep the faith in what I know He has called me to do, which is to be a soldier in His army of Revelation Wellness. This has made me prime pickins for the enemy! It was revealed how we , Revelation Wellness, are a unique ministry because we pray for God to be our strength, we push into His word for our salvation and we honor the Holy Spirit by being healthy and whole. As Christians, we know that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in us and was given to us by God. So if we believe that, then why is our temple so severely overlooked in our churches? The Daniel fast is a good example. Nobody wants to fast and pray. Maybe they can do it for an hour or a day, but for 21 days, are you kidding me! 1Corinthians 6:19 tells us that we were bought at a price so we must honor God with our bodies. Most Christians just feel comfortable to honor Him with their mouths by words and feel like movement is not necessary, and isn't that was fasting is? It creates movement. It gives your body a chance to get rid of the junk that you have dishonorably put in it, so we can create a healthy and whole enviornment for the Holy Spirit. All that He has done for us, this important scripture is often overlooked on Sundays or in bible study and repasses.

Romans 12:1~ Let them be a living and holy sacrifice.

One of our Revelation Instructors, Mary McKinney, has a practice in Athens Georgia. Visit our website under classes for more information. Mary is also a fitness nurtionist who does Revelation fitness classes, Holy Yoga Classes and speaking engagements.Have her come and speak at your next event!

The Basics of Healthy Eating Gods Way-The bible lays the foundation for how we should eat in our day to day lives. I speak on the basics of healthy eating such as good fats vs bad fats, healthy meal planning , the ever tricky dessert, and tips to eating out successfully, just to name a few. This is a great starting point for anyone wanting to learn the basics of healthy eating and why God desires that we honor Him with our bodies. (Mary McKinney)

Chair WorkOUT #4 - Christian Fitness - Faith & Wellness

Alisa Keeton — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 05:57:14 -0800

For those of you doing these overweight/obese workouts I want you to know that you are near and dear to my heart. I can not promise you that it is not going to hurt. I can promise you that it will be absolutely worth it.

Every time you decide to press play on one of these videos, and not just watch, but do, I am certain you are pressing "play" on your belief that God is for you. That good things are possible. And all things are possible through Him. That is faith. Belief. Unbelief keeps you from pressing play and moving along with me.

Do me a favor and exercise your belief with me at least 5 days a week. Then when you close down the YouTube window and head out to live out the rest of your day, take that belief with you. Take it into the hard places of making the harder decisions. Five cookies, or just one? A couple of slices of pizza or a whole pie? Water or soda? You have been given a sound mind. EXERCISE IT!

We must never forget that Jesus pleaded with his father to take the cup from him. The pain that he knew he would endure was too much to bear. But the thought of not having you and I back with him again was even more painful. So he believed.

Mark 9:24

"Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!"

Be His. Stay His. Stay Whole.

Identity Crisis

Alisa Keeton — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 04:11:58 -0800

In my Holy Yoga Master's class, small group session, a question was asked, In terms of the Trinity, which aspect of God is easiest for you to identify with? Hardest? Why? Oh my! I thought is was easy for me to identify with all three and neither was the hardest until I woke up this morning and heard about women being abused.

I thought about my own life experiences when it came to being abused. I realized that when we use that word, we immediately think about physical abuse. I never thought of myself as being abused but I really was, I was mentally abused. I believed in what others thought about me to be truth. I led my life in a way that was pleasing to others first and me second. I wore the clothes and had took care of my family in a way that made them happy and I surrounded myself with people and things that was pleasing to them and myself and if anyone didn't like it, I would change it to please them.

Looking back and seeing where I am at now and knowing the direction that I know God is calling me to go, I realized that the reason I suffered from mental abuse which led me to losing relationships, material things, my self worth and becoming this person who believed she was not loved, not good enough, not pretty enough, not able to give is because I didn't have an identity in Our Father.

All abuse is a result of not identifying with God. Abuse begins with your sprituality. If you can't idenify with pleasing God first and always Him, loving Him, trusting Him, see your beauty and self worth in Him, we are spiritually abusing ourselves.

So now I can answer that question with absolute truth, Our Father was the hardest for me to identify with. That's because it was hard to believe that all He wants is to love you, and it doesn't matter what you look like, what you have and what you know. He will give you the desires of your heart. He will give you that stamp of approval that you seek. He will give you what He wants others to see in you and then no one can mentally or physically abuse you because they will see Him in You. That's my identity now and forever more.
