For all my sisters who need some spiritual support… here’s 10 scriptures that will motivate you to work out.
1. 1 Corinthians 6:19–20
“Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit… You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.”
→ Your workout can be an act of stewardship and honoring God.
2. 1 Timothy 4:8
“For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things.”
→ Physical training matters—but it isn’t your highest priority.
3. 1 Corinthians 9:27
“I discipline my body and keep it under control…”
→ Discipline isn’t punishment. It’s learning to lead your body rather than letting every feeling lead you.
4. Colossians 3:23
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.”
→ Even an ordinary workout can become an offering when your heart is in the right place.
5. Proverbs 31:17
“She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.”
→ Strength isn’t something to be ashamed of. Scripture celebrates a woman who is strong and capable.
6. Galatians 6:9
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest…”
→ Keep showing up when the results aren’t visible yet.
7. Philippians 4:13
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
→ When you’re struggling through the last few reps, remember where your strength ultimately comes from.
8. Proverbs 16:3
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”
→ Invite God into your goals instead of separating your faith from your fitness.
9. Hebrews 12:11
“No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest…”
→ Consistency often requires doing what isn’t comfortable today for something valuable later.
10. Psalm 139:14
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
→ You don’t work out because your body is inadequate. You work out because you can care for the body you’ve been given.
