He Increases Your Strength |
THE SCRIPTURE |
“He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound].” |
(Isaiah 40:29, AMP) |
THE WORD |
In the Bible, Joseph went through seasons of
difficulty. He was rejected by his family, sold into slavery, lied
about, mistreated, abandoned, falsely accused and thrown in jail. But
through it all, Joseph never gave up. He kept pressing through and doing
the right thing even though the wrong thing kept happening. The Bible
says in Psalm 105 verse 18 that as Joseph lay in prison in those chains
of iron, his soul entered into that iron. In other words, as Joseph just
kept on fighting life through, his soul became as strong as that steel.
God developed a supernatural strength in him that no one could take
away.
If you are going through difficulty today, God wants
to increase your strength. He wants to increase your power to overcome.
He wants to make your inner man as strong as steel. When you keep
standing, keep believing, keep doing the right thing, you are opening
yourself to God’s supernatural strength. That’s when you know you are
growing in Him. Be strong today. Keep pressing forward because God is at
work increasing strength in you so that you can live in victory in
every area of your life!
