When Christ taught His disciples to pray, He began by addressing God as “Our Father.” All of us who’ve been born again into God’s household have this same right. Since our concept of the heavenly Father is limited by our perceptions of earthly dads, let’s consider what Scripture says about His care for us.
Our heavenly Father loves us.1 John 4:16 tells us His love will never cease. Even when we disobey, it’s demonstrated in discipline (Hebrews 12:6).
He hears our prayers. God is never too busy for us. He invites us to draw near to His throne with confidence to receive grace, mercy, and help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
The Father is our provider and protector. He promises to supply all that we need and protect us from the evil one (Matt. 6:11; Matt 6:13). Every event in our life is filtered through His sovereign will.
The Lord is our guide. He’s given us His Word to direct our path (Psalm 119:105).
By viewing the Father through the truth of Scripture instead of our preconceptions, we’ll see Him as He truly is and discover a security we’ve never known before.

Today’s psalm calls us to continually exalt and magnify the Lord, regardless of the situation. As we gaze at God through His Word, our understanding of Him becomes greater, as if we’re looking through a magnifying glass. We see the wonders of His nature and deeds more clearly and can’t help but respond in praise.
To grasp this concept of magnifying the Lord, consider how Paul responded to being imprisoned in Rome (Philippians 1:12-14). Instead of complaining about the situation, he accepted it with grace, knowing that this was God’s path for him. Through it all, he kept praising and exalting Christ. Even though Paul couldn’t preach or start churches as he once did, the Lord opened up a new way to serve—prison ministry and written correspondence that eventually ended up in the New Testament.
Whatever is happening in your life—good or bad, long-term or short—you have the opportunity to magnify the Lord through it. This not only benefits you with a greater appreciation of Him, but it also encourages others who see your witness. When a believer passes through trials peacefully and praises the Lord, even unbelievers notice.
Choosing to buy your own equipment will save you money in the long run because you won't have to pay any membership fees when you develop your own in-home gym. However, you must be committed to working out regularly at home if you want to get maximum benefit from your new in-home fitness equipment.
What Do You Need
Your dream home gym will depend on your age and current needs. If you want to lose weight, you would choose some conventional exercises like crunches. However, if you want to be strong, you may choose heavy tugging machines or to construct a place where you can do deadlift. In the end: it depends on your choice.
These are some of the most important aspects to consider when you build your home gym. The first thing you need to do when thinking about what kind of equipment you want to buy is to answer these questions: how often do you want or need to work out? Do you want to build muscle or tone your body? Do you have a space for a full gyms or in already limited space? All of these answers can help you pick the right equipment for your personal gym.
If you have decided to arrange a home gym, the next step is to select the fitness equipment that will help you achieve your fitness goals while ensuring they are safe and effective. It is important when shopping for fitness equipment to get quality over quantity, and make sure you consider stability, durability and safety.
Choose Equipment According To Your Budget
Depending on your budget, you will have to choose the right equipment for you. Start by adding up how much money you can spend and then according to that set up a budget. A home gym doesn't have to be expensive and it's easy with the right research.
Choose Equipment According To Your Need
There are two basic kinds of workout equipment: aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic training involves short bursts of intense activity with rests in between, such as running or cycling. Anaerobic training involves controlled workouts designed to increase strength, such as free weight workouts or swims. As a general rule of thumb, if you want to increase muscle size, you should choose anaerobic exercise. If you want to lose weight and tone your body, you should choose aerobic exercise.
Choose Equipment According To Your Space
Now that you have familiarized yourself with home gym equipment, the next step is to decide which equipment will be the best fit for your home. Estimate and draw out a floor plan of your room, listing what you want each piece of equipment to do. Then, begin to search for pieces that can incorporate multiple fitness functions into one piece.
In order to build a well-equipped gym at home without great costs, you can do it gradually. Begin with a regular gymnastic bar, add weightlifting training of barbells and dumbbells, gradually acquire horizontal bars, multi-gyms, weight machines, benches and special fitness equipment that you need.

Paul’s first epistle to the Corinthians addressed several problems in the church, including the misuse of spiritual gifts. The people in that fellowship valued only certain gifts—believers with the “better” ones were elevated above others, while those without the preferred abilities were considered less important.
In teaching about spiritual gifts, Paul warned church members not to think more highly of themselves than they ought (Romans 12:3). The gifts are not given to exalt certain individuals but to benefit the congregation, and no gift is more important than any other. God considers them all necessary for the health of a local church. Each believer receives at least one gift in accordance with the Spirit’s purposes and choosing. It’s God’s business to decide who has which ability.
We must be careful not to assign undue value to certain gifts. Nor should we place unwarranted emphasis on giftedness as a way to assess one’s spiritual maturity or importance in the church. Let’s release any preconceived ideas about the value of spiritual abilities and instead celebrate how God builds each local body of believers. Our omniscient Father places His children where they can minister through their gifts and also be blessed by others doing likewise.
Nestled in the town of Poway sits a home that one may call a California dream. It’s surrounded by thriving plants and greenery, trees plump with ready-to-pick citrus fruits and comes equipped with horse stables and chicken coops. For a 10-year resident of New York City, this place was, in the least number of words, a breath of fresh air.

God has prepared work for us to do, and He’s equipped us with spiritual gifts to do it. Spiritual gifts are special abilities the Lord gives us to serve others in the body of Christ.
These gifts are given to us, but they’re for the benefit of others. Though they come in several varieties, can be used in various ministries, and have a wide range of effects in the church, they all originate from the Holy Spirit. He’s the One who chooses which gift each believer will receive. When all church members serve the body using their particular gifts, everyone benefits spiritually.
The Lord has a specific purpose in mind for each of us, and He’s gifted us accordingly (Ephesians 2:10). Without our individual contribution, the local church will lack something. Part of living in the power of the Holy Spirit involves employing our divine endowments as God directs. By operating in our area of giftedness, we’ll have the motivation, ability, and confidence needed for effective service. If you don’t know what gift you have, start by volunteering at something of interest, and eventually you’ll discover it.
