BB&JT: Plea and thank you for ratings and review & for spreading the word via social media and word of mouth…
BB – We are talking today about … “Morning Prayer”…
So JT What does that title bring up to your mind?
- Bob – POINT: Anytime is the right time to pray but there is something very special about arising early in the morning for the purpose of uninterrupted time with God. It’s a matter of denying yourself as a follower of Jesus Christ.
Luke 9:23 (ESV) — 23 And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
- JT ------ OK THEN LET’S TALK SOME MORE ABOUT THAT as we bring up… WHAT’S NEW – as we open Bob’s recent blog from bobbrubaker.com …

- JT – Question ONE - FROM THE SPIRITUAL SIDE OF LIFE….
Do you really think that there is an advantage to praying early in the day, rather than later in the day? If so – How so? Also what about people who work shift work?
- Bob & JT discuss
Shift work ---- early whenever that is for you… (examples)
Daniel – 3 X per day
YES ---- There are advantages --- no interruptions or less, you are fresh, influences greater part of the day AND THE BIG ONE --- exercises self-discipline
- JT – Question Two… “FROM THE MENTAL ASPECT”
How do you mentally approach getting up earlier than normal to accomplish this?
- Bob & JT discuss
Luke 9:23 (ESV) — 23 And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
1 Corinthians 9:27 (ESV) — 27 But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.
Plan
Benefits
Consistency
- (JT) Third Question …. From the physical side of life…
Let’s talk about walking with weights? You see this all the time, people out walking carrying dumbells or some have a backpack filled with weight. What do you think?
- Bob and JT discuss…
- Appeal is Resistance training with cardio – alright ??? on short spurts but not for longer periods
- Watch out for poor posture and overloading your joints
- Best to do your cardio and your resistance training separately to avoid injury.
Bob’s final comment – It takes discipline ….
Point: DISCIPLINE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE --- in all aspects of life
