How is God’s Strength Made Perfect In Our Weakness?

How is God’s Strength Made Perfect In Our Weakness?

‘To them that have no might He increaseth strength.’

Precious truth for weary souls!

How quickly as Believers, we can begin to do things in our own strength but we don’t need to. We have Christ in us who is made unto us ‘both the wisdom and power of God’!

‘Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.’

God really does understand! You know this in your head but will you hold it tight by precious faith?  There’s nothing in your life right now, nothing you’re going through that He doesn’t understand.

‘He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.’

It’s not to those that feel strong in their own strength that God gives but to those that feel their weakness and inability!

‘Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

BUT they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.’

Oh what a precious ‘But’!!

Strong, young men can grow weak but the weak who trust in God will renew their strength.

Will you trust God to be to you all you need Him to be? 

Look to Him for strength and You’ll prove the promise true that His strength is indeed made perfect in our weakness and that His grace truly is sufficient for whatever He calls you to walk through.

So lean in dear soul, trust in His fulness and promises, for we serve a faithful God! 

With Love
