Strength

Search for the Lord and for his strength; continually seek him. 1 Chronicles 16:11

If I were to say the word strength most of us would think of a body builder or running on the treadmill. And I get it! To be physically strong and fit is a fine goal, but there is a greater strength that is even more essential for the believer and that is a strength that can only be found in God.

Godly strength always beats physical strength—every single time. Sometimes, we buy into the lie that we are not strong in the Lord, and we’ll never experience His strength. But this is, as I stated, a lie. God’s Word never indicates that God wants His people to remain weak. Just read the book of Joshua and count how many times we are instructed to be strong and courageous.

This week be strong in the Lord! God showcases His power in our weakness, trials, sickness, and pain, He is even more glorified because He did it all.  Go and put on those clothes of His strength. Strength looks good on you!
