DIVINE STRENGTH AND DEPENDENCE ON GOD
A WORD FROM THE WORD:
"The LORD is my strength and my song;
he has given me victory." Psalms 118:14 NLT.
From the context of our anchor Scripture, the psalmist, by the Holy Spirit's inspiration reflects on how God's strength is a veritable source of courage and support in times of difficulty and trouble. So we can say, without any fear of contradiction that victory in life and life's endeavours for the true child of God comes from the LORD.
Paul the apostle, by the Holy Spirit's inspiration wrote to the Church in Philippi, and to us by extension to 'Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice!' (Philippians 4:4 NLT).
When the Spirit of Jesus opens the eyes of your understanding, and reveals to you the plague of your own heart and your need to be strengthened by the Saviour, you cannot but come to the full understanding and reality that the arms of the flesh will always fail anyone who reposes trust and confidence on it; and then earnestly grab the opportunity to cruise on God's strength with all you have.
We can say assuredly that to rejoice in the LORD always like Paul, the apostle admonished above, you must have a saving interest in Him. Just like the jailor believed and rejoiced, shouldn't you as a believing child of God rejoice likewise, having been saved from the guilt of sin, the condemnation of sin, the dominion of sin and the grave, the power of death and the vengeance of everlasting fire, etc?
May God grant you strength on every side and victory, as you go out in peace and return in peace. By the strength and mercies of the LORD, you shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
PRAYER BULLETS:
Father LORD, thank You for the salvation of my soul. May I continue to receive courage and support from Your strength.
FURTHER READING:
Psalm 9:14; Psalm 118:14-117; Acts 16:24-34; Ezra 3:11.
