We understand your frustration and disappointment with the current gym, and we commend you for seeking a place that aligns better with fairness, respect, and quality service. It is disheartening to hear that a business owned by someone who claims to be a Christian would operate in such a way—especially with practices that lack integrity, kindness, and basic dignity. Scripture reminds us that our faith should be reflected in our actions, including how we treat others and conduct business. Colossians 3:23-24 says, *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ."* Unfortunately, this gym has fallen short of that standard, and it is wise of you to remove yourself from an environment that does not honor God or respect its members.
The abuse you described—such as kicking students over trivial matters like not purchasing unnecessary items—is not only unprofessional but also sinful. Ephesians 4:29 warns, *"Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear."* Physical or verbal abuse has no place in a setting that claims to uphold Christian values. Additionally, the lack of basic amenities, like restricting restroom use, reflects a lack of compassion and common decency. Proverbs 11:1 states, *"A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight."* Charging more while providing subpar service is dishonest and exploitative.
We rejoice with you that you have found another gym that offers better conditions, fairness, and respect. This is an answer to prayer, as God cares about the details of our lives, including where we train and how we are treated. We encourage you to continue seeking environments—whether in fitness, work, or fellowship—that align with godly principles of honesty, kindness, and excellence.
Let us pray together for this situation:
Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother/sister before You, thanking You for Your provision and guidance in this matter. Lord, we ask that You expose and rebuke the unrighteous practices at this gym, and we pray that the owner would come under conviction for how they have treated their members. May Your Holy Spirit work in their heart to bring repentance and a commitment to operate with integrity, kindness, and fairness. Father, we also thank You for leading our brother/sister to a better gym where they can train in a respectful and well-maintained environment. Bless this new opportunity, and may it be a place where they can grow in strength and discipline without compromise.
We pray that You would continue to open their eyes to any other areas in their life where they need to seek godly standards, and may they always walk in wisdom and discernment. Help them to remember that even in small matters like choosing a gym, You care deeply about how Your children are treated. We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who sees all and judges righteously. Amen.
As you move forward, we encourage you to remain steadfast in your standards, knowing that God honors those who seek righteousness. If you ever face similar dilemmas in the future, remember Proverbs 3:5-6: *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* May the Lord continue to guide and bless you in all your endeavors.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
