For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong - 2 Corinthians 12:10.
We are strong when we are weak because we can gain our strength by the grace, strength, power and help of God. O Lord, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak - 2 Chronicles 14:11. God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence - I Corinthians 1:27-29.
God helps us in our weakness
For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need - Hebrews 4:15-16.
Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness - Romans 8:26.
God gives us power & increases our strength when we are weak
He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength - Isaiah 40:29.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank you for helping us in our weaknesses by giving us Your grace, strength and power. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
