Free & Fit Advent Challenge Day 7 - Proverbial Prayers & Planks - Advent Devotions from Proverbs with a Word, Proverb & Exercise Everyday.
Today’s word for December 7 is Work - we must live as if everything depends upon God and work as is everything depends upon us. The opportunities we have been given come from God, the responsibility is ours to be the hands and feet of Jesus to the people we meet and the work that we complete. We must Work as if working for the Lord!
Today’s Proverb and verse is Proverbs 7 verse One - Proverbs 7:1 "My son, keep my words and store up my commands within you."
In the Amplified translation it describes the reality of our work: “My son, keep my words And treasure my commandments within you [so they are readily available to guide you].”
Proverbs 7:1 AMP
The Ten Commandments were given to Moses as a guide, to help him live and work on the earth. Today we can still live better, working and living as Jesus taught us to follow the two Commandments of Loving God First and Loving People as our Neighbour as Ourselves.
Today’s movement is one of my favourites moves the Left Side Plank This is a simple movement involving turning onto your side using your feet and hands to remain in place. Focusing on core and Abductor muscels.

Full Chapter:
Full Reflection & Prayer: Work is important, our jobs are important and our careers can be so integral to our lives. Yet, God wants all our energy, focus and attention on Him. When was the last time you took a break? When did you really last quit worrying, shift from busyness and when did you last slow right down just to relax and be alone with God? Our Almighty Creator stopped after six days and rested.
“And by the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested (ceased) on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.”
Genesis 2:2 AMP
We are invited into a place of contemplation and state of wellbeing by resting with God. Jesus himself invites us to slow down and rest with him.
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I will give you rest [refreshing your souls with salvation].”
Matthew 11:28 AMP
Let us today decide to take some time to be quiet, close our door and be alone with our Heavenly Father as we pursue heaven for the hope of all humanity. Today’s reading from Ephesians encourages us to do this:
““And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints (God’s people),”
Ephesians 1:18 AMP
Today lets stand on the Truth of Gods word. Lets place our trust in the Holy Spirit and put to death the misdeeds of the body. Lets place our trust in Jesus Christ and look to heaven in eternity with our God in Jesus name. Amen
Let us Pray…
Father forgive us for falling into our old habits of our flesh. Help us everyday to return to you and to live in the hope of all humanity through the power of the Holy Spirit in Jesus name. Amen
“So it is good to wait quietly for salvation from the Lord.”
Lamentations 3:26 NLT
