Strength From GOD

Receiving Strength From The LORD

Then he said to them,

 "Go your way,

 eat the fat,

 drink the sweet,

 and send portions

 to those for whom nothing is prepared;

 for this day is holy to our Lord.

 Do not sorrow, for

 the joy of the LORD is your strength." 

 Nehemiah 8:10 

When the word of GOD was taught to the people of Israel, they were convicted in their hearts. They felt sorrow as they mourned for their sin. They repented and turned their hearts and faces towards GOD. This brought joy to the heart of GOD and strength to His people.

And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. - 2 Corinthians 12:9  

Do you feel cast down by your physical weaknesses?

Have you prayed and not received healing?

Seek the LORD diligently. 

He desires to reveal His glory to you by extending His grace over you. 

You will reflect GOD'S glory when you depend on His strength. 

He has promised to give you sufficient grace for each day. 

His grace will enable you to be what He wants you to be

 and to do what He wants you to do.

But those who wait on the LORD

 Shall renew their strength;

 They shall mount up with wings like eagles,

 They shall run and not be weary, 

They shall walk and not faint. 

 Isaiah 40:31  

We are renewed in our strength when we wait on the LORD in prayer and in the study of His word. Repenting of our sins, turning to Him and connecting with Him brings new strength to us from GOD.

Then the LORD turned to him and said, "Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?" - Judges 6:14 

Gideon was fearful of the enemies of Israel who were oppressing them.

He felt small and inferior in himself and helpless.

Do you feel that way at times? 

In school?

In your workplace?

In your community?

In your Church?

The LORD will turn towards you

 so that you may go forth in His strength.

He has a task for you. 

He will use you to bring down the enemies of the people of GOD. 

GOD will use you to deliver His people

 from their enemies who oppress them.
