LVL Finalle - (Sept. 1st-6th) - “SURGE/Manage”


“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. 1 Cor. 9:24-27

This marks the last challenge for the Summer, so don’t let it just fizzle out, but surge into the new school year with a passion for God and his ways. You have a new schedule, new classes and a new way of life to adjust to but don’t let that get you distracted. This week make sure to get outside and get some exercise. Get up that heart rate! Manage your body and the earth that God has put us in charge of.

Commit: We are told that to stay in shape we are to be active 30 minutes a day. Get outside at least three times this week for an hour to sweat and exercise. Also commit to taking steps to take care of the Earth that God has placed us over. We cannot be ignorant any longer! http://reusablebags.com/

Pray: Pray that you’d feel his presence and blessing in your life as you are running around. Pray that as you train your body you’ll see the work that is necessary to train your spiritual life as well.

Read: Mark 12:29-31, Genesis 1:26-31, Read a book of the Bible of your choice

The Goal: To see how important it is for us to train/fight for what we want. We need to train spiritually like athletes but if we can’t understand physical training how are we going to understand spiritual training. Spend time with God outside to see what he is trying to tell you. Take an interest in the earth and your impact upon it!
