Strength From God

Strength From God

"I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, O Sovereign Lord; I will proclaim your righteousness, yours alone."
Psalm 71:16

This is a good scripture, and could be the spiritual theme of your life. Many times during my life I have felt weak, when some project or situation occurred where I was not properly prepared for. God tells us that during these times that we should rely upon Him for strength to get us through. I know that during many of these times, when I thought things would not work out for the best, when I was not ready, that some of them worked out beautifully. God will give us strength to deal with our tough situations, even if we aren't prepared, as He knows all things and will not let us be overwhelmed and defeated. When we look at Samson, he seemed to be defeated, as he had lost his strength, but God gave him the power and the strength to be victorious. God not only can strengthen our inner self, but He can also impart strength to our physical being. The Bible shows us many instances, such as Samson, of supernatural strength and endurance, being given to a mortal man, when he was doing God's work for the Kingdom. Even Jesus had a man's body, but God's supernatural strength. If you are facing some struggle today, that you need additional strength to get through, ask God to provide you with strength to endure it, and be victorious. Claim God's strength in your situation, and don't let Satan convince you that you are weak and a failure. Think that you are strong, and that God is with you supporting you and giving you strength. Grasp the strength that God is giving you, and let your day be mighty in Him.
