Devotional for August 12

Quote by Bruce Coleman: "Weight training is to body what prayer is to the spirit."

Arise

24 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah Psalm 24:1-6 (KJV)

The Morning Exhortation

Weight training is to body what prayer is to the spirit. Age doesn’t necessary make one weak, but a lack of weight training and prayer certainly will. Lift up your heart to the Lord by acknowledging Him in all your ways. Beware of being stuck in the mud with those who are great in their own eyes. Live in meekness, and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. (Proverbs 3:5-8; 1 Peter 3:3-4; Psalm 92:12-15, 18:1-3; Isaiah 46:4-5; 1 Chronicles 29:10-12; Psalm 10:4; Proverbs 11:22; James 4:4-6; 1 Corinthians 9:24-27, 10:12; Numbers 12:3; Exodus 34:29-30; Deuteronomy 34:7; Psalm 90:12; Acts 26:8; Psalm 18:25-36; 2 Corinthians 10:4-6; Proverbs 16:3; 2 Corinthians 6:3-7; Philippians 4:5-9; 1 Thessalonians 5:14-18; 1 Chronicles 29:13; 2 Corinthians 13:11-14)
