Your Daily Spiritual Work Out - January 6

INTRO: SPIRITUALLY FIT | TODAY

In this episode of Spiritually Fit Today, Arnie Cole and Dr. Chuck Lawless dive into the true meaning of prayer. They discuss why prayer matters, how to overcome confusion, and offer practical tips for building a consistent prayer life. Featuring insights from James 5:16, this conversation helps listeners understand and strengthen their connection with God through prayer.

STEP 1 - RECEIVE

(Receive God's Word and Grow in Bible Knowledge)

If you were to guess about the overall tone of a letter sent from a prisoner, would you think it to be a joyful letter? That's exactly what we get in the Apostle Paul's letter to the Philippians. Rather dwell on his circumstances, we'll see how Paul finds joy even while in jail. As we begin this study, we'll learn a bit more about what motivates Paul to continue his work for Christ.

STEP 2 - REFLECT

(How does this Scripture Apply to your life?)

Words can never hurt you? Are you sure about that? Bruce offers a more realistic take on the impact of words, especially harsh words. How can you benefit others rather than cripple them with the words you use?

STEP 3 - RESPOND

(How will you Win Today?)

It’s easy to target someone and tear them down, but the effects can be devastating. Today Coach Seth Walker challenges you to flip the plan and change the outcome by calling out the good you see in others!

If you see a friend, a family member, or even a stranger do something that is good and honoring to God, acknowledge it to that person today. Have your eyes open to the good others are doing around you, and build them up when you see them!

STEP 4 - REVEAL

(How will you reveal Jesus to others today through praying and sharing?)

We're all called upon to serve the body of Christ. Today Karmin leads us in prayer asking God for a heart of compassion towards those in need.
