Our Source of all Strength

Hello everyone,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord.

Primary Text

“Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not faint or grow weary: there is no searching of His understanding. He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound]. [II Cor. 12:9].” Isaiah 40v28-29 (AMP)

If one lacks strength, purpose will not be fulfilled. Proverbs 24v10 says “If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.” When trouble and adversary comes, lack of strength may make one unable to stand in that day. O may our strength be renewed in Jesus name, amen. For the believer, God is the strength of our lives. He is the One who can empower us with the willingness to go on, the ability to work, and the perseverance to continue in the midst of adversity. 2 Corinthians 12v9-10 (AMP) says “But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me! So for the sake of Christ, I am well pleased and take pleasure in infirmities, insults, hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak [in human strength], then am I [truly] strong (able, powerful in divine strength).” Indeed, may we be strengthened with might by God’s Spirit in our inner man in Jesus name, amen (Ephesians 3v16). It is normal for strength to fail, Isaiah 40v30 telling us that even the young men faint and grow weary, but for you dear One, you are linked to the God of all flesh, the everlasting Lord who is the giver of power to the faint and weary, and the one who multiplies and causes strength to abound. Are you in need of strength today, why not ask Him for it?

Prayer

Father God, we thank You for You are our strength. We look to You for strength this day and pray that You will be glorified in all we do in Jesus name, amen.
