The Lord is our Strength

 The Lord is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped - Psalm 28:7.

                     The Sovereign Lord Himself is our strength. The Lord God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, And He will make me walk on my high hills - Habakkuk 3:19. He is the strength of our life and a very present help in trouble. The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? - Psalm 27:1. God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble - Psalm 46:1. The Lord who is our strength gives us strength when we are weak. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak - Isaiah 40:29.

                 God strengthened Elijah when he was very weak both physically and emotionally. The angel of the Lord came back a second time and touched him and said, “Get up and eat, for the journey is too much for you.” So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God – 1 Kings 19:7,8. He is faithful to strengthen us and protect us from all evil. But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one - 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

                     God who is with us will strengthen us and help us whenever we are weak. Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand - Isaiah 41:10. It is God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect - Psalm 18:32. Let God’s strength be made perfect in our weakness.  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me - Philippians 4:13.

                                                            

PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for being our strength. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
