BB – We are talking today about … “He Is Able”…
So JT What does that title bring up to your mind?
- Bob – POINT: We often forget or push aside this great truth that God is able which is one reason to read Ephesians 3:20&21 every day…
Ephesians 3:20–21 (ESV) — 20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

- JT – This is the PowerBreak Podcast, I’m JT along with Bob Brubaker and this is the –– time for some questions and answers. Feel free to submit your questions by EMAIL TO JT@bobbrubaker.com and we’ll get to the answer on an upcoming PowerBreak. Podcast…
- JT – Question ONE - FROM THE SPIRITUAL SIDE OF LIFE….
Why is a familiarity and belief in God’s ability so important?
- Bob & JT discuss
Hebrews 11:6 (ESV) — 6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
Hebrews 11:1–3 (ESV) — 1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. 2 For by it the people of old received their commendation. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.
Ephesians 3:20–21 (ESV) — 20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Daniel 3:16–18 (ESV) — 16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. 17 If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king. 18 But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.”
- JT – Question Two… “FROM THE MENTAL ASPECT”
How can we mentally apply this concept that God is able?
- Bob & JT discuss
Romans 15:4 (ESV) — 4 For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
2 Peter 1:3–4 (ESV) — 3 His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, 4 by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.
- (JT) Third Question …. From the physical side of life…
To eat or not to eat on workouts of 1 hour or less – that is the question. What do you say?
- Bob and JT discuss…
During shorter (60-75 minute) workouts – even hard interval sessions – you’re not going to burn through all your glycogen stores. This means you can complete a high-quality, high-intensity interval workout and finish before diminished carbohydrate availability negatively affects power output.
But why not eat anyway? Mainly, it’s because short workouts are often high-intensity sessions. Many athletes find it difficult to consume food or calorie-rich drink while working hard, or they feel nauseated or bloated when they do. In these cases, consuming calories can diminish training quality more than enhance it.
Keep in mind, however, that it’s important not to take the recommendations above too far. While you may have enough energy on board for 60-75 minutes of moderate to high-intensity training, you still need to take in fluids to help manage core temperature. This is especially true for indoor cycling because reduced airflow leads to increased sweat rates. For shorter sessions you can rely mostly on plain water. For longer sessions consider a lower-calorie, electrolyte-rich drink for hydration.
Anything else JT?
Bob’s final comment – It takes discipline ….
Point: DISCIPLINE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE --- in all aspects of life
