Text: Philippians 4:13-14 (KJV)
13I can do all
things through Christ, which strengtheneth me.14 Notwithstanding ye have well
done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
We
wake up each day with several agenda but how successful they will be, depend on
the strength and the level of Christ in our inside. We can also see a
confirmation in Matthew
4:4- But he answered and said, it is written, Man shall not live by bread
alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.The truth
is, as humans, we have to be strong even when we are in difficult
circumstances, but that can only be possible and easy if we depend on Christ.
Although some situations which we face can be tough to handle, but we should
think of it as the perfect time to turn to the bible, which is God’s word for
strength. The fact still remains that it is God who makes us who we are, so we
need to rely on His word for the real energy to pull through those difficult
moments. We need to train ourselves to overcome those difficult times by
infusing the explosive power of the word into our lives. From the text of
today, we can see that Christ has empowered us with inner strength, and this is
expressed outwardly. We can say that, we are self-sufficient in Christ which is
our source of energy for without him, we cannot do anything.
Frankly
speaking, what really keeps us strengthened in Christ is the strength of faith, which is completely
different from physical strength. It literally makes us remain steadfast in
Him, even when hard times come. Isaiah 41:10- Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not
dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea,
I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.The truth
is many things can fail, but God's strength never fails; that is why we must
anchor our hearts in His words. We should always know that God has our back. Psalms 121:1- I will
lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.We must
never forget to draw strength from His words because it is full of encouraging
and inspiring words, and it even has solutions to our problems. It is never too
late, you can start now, and as you do so, you will have unspeakable peacein
Jesus name.
PRAYER
POINT:
1. Father,
please grant more grace upon us because on our own, we can do nothing, but with
Christ, we can do valiantly, in Jesus name.
ACTION QUOTE: Remember, emotional healing is what cloths you with inner strength.
