Free & Fit Advent Challenge Day 13 - Proverbial Prayers & Planks - Advent Devotions from Proverbs with a Word, Proverb & Exercise Everyday - Friday December 13th 2024
Today’s word on December 13th is Speak - Often times we pursue a plan without consultation with God. We don’t pray. We don’t fast. We don’t speak in open dialogue with God. We ultimately don’t wait and listen to God.
That is the hardest part waiting and listening. How does God speak to you during a decision making process? How can you be confident what you are doing comes from God?
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV
We must trust, not ourselves, but God with our futures!
Today’s Proverb is Proverbs 13 verse Twelve it says - “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.”
Proverbs 13:12 NIV
In the Amplified it helps us understand further: “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when desire is fulfilled, it is a tree of life.”
Proverbs 13:12 AMP
Today’s Movement is Rotating Jabs - this helps to build our upper-body exercise to target forearms and improve grip strength. It’s a favourite of our Free & Fit London member Artiom Tristram.

Full Reflection:
Sometimes, we are not attentive to what God is trying to share. Other times, we become hostile to His words, even if they are the exact words we need to hear. We are all loved by God, but sometimes that love manifests itself as a sort of "tough love." It challenges us to look at where we are straying, what we need to be doing different.
"If today you hear His voice, harden not your hearts." The Book of Psalms.
God does not give up on us, though. God's Eternal Word continues to speak to us, dwells deep within us, continually beckoning to be heard. That love, that everlasting gift, is intimately shared with us and takes root if we are receptive to it and allow it to be planted in our hearts.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." The Gospel of John.
Let us pray, then, that we may form hearts and minds that seek to listen and hear in the way of Christ.
Let us pray for that openness to one another, that we may listen not with judging ears, but ones of charity and understanding. And, let us pray that we may always be receptive and open to God's word, having faith that it brings great light and life to ourselves and to our world.
Let us Pray…
Lord Jesus be with us today. Whether it rains or shines Lord we are grateful to you and for you in all our current circumstances please work through them through us in Jesus name. Amen
“So it is good to wait quietly for salvation from the Lord.”
Lamentations 3:26 NLT
