ISAIAH 40:29, PSALM 89:21
Foreword
Satan is a trader: he
doesn’t give anything for free, he only exchanges things for things Job 2:4 says and Satan answered the Lord
and said skin for skin yea all that a man hath will he give for his life.
He persuaded Adam and eve and exchanged the presence and the life of God for a
fruit Gen 3:5, He offered the glory of the world (the original owner of the
heavens and earth Psalm 24:1) in exchange of worship Matt 4:9, he offers sin to
all of us today in exchange for heaven Matt 25:54 please beware he has no
strength to offer.
Meaning
of strength
The English advanced
dictionary defines strength as what makes someone able to do something or the
quality of being strong.
For this purpose strength
can be defined as divine: capacity, enablement, finger and backing. Like what
Elijah had in a divine meal that he went with it for forty days 1 kings 19:8 which says And he arose and
did eat and drink and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty
nights unto Horeb the mount of God. What a meal?
Why
do we need God’s strength?
Our
strength is limited will often fail us: we will often see or
come in contact with what is beyond our human strength. David had been a
warrior he had killed very dangerous animals and kept safe the sheep of his
father in the wild and crude jungle of the then world for a while but most
times especially when in deep distress he prayed to God: when confronted with
Goliath 1 Sam 17:45, when running away from his own son 2 Sam 15:31, when
plundered by the enemies 1 Sam 30:8.
To
do God’s work/will: to do God’s word/work we need His
strength, Act 1:1-4 Jesus specifically told His disciples not to depart Jerusalem
until they are endued from above. The flesh is borne of sin but when His spirit
and strength comes we become reengineered and reconfigured by and for Him.
His
strength is ever present (doesn’t fail): most human fail
especially when there’s need from them but our God is reliable psalm 46:1 says God is our refuge and
strength a very present help in trouble. Have you been disappointed in the
past try God. Dan 3:16-17 says if it be
so our God whom we serve is ABLE to DELIVER us from the burning fiery furnace
and he will deliver us out of thine hand o king.
God
does not share His glory: God will only do great things through
you so he can take all the glory, He doesn’t share his glory, and he will not
take glory for what you did. Isaiah 42:8
says I am the Lord that is my name and my glory will I not give to another
neither my praise to graven images.
How
to access God’s strength
Be
a child of God: Matt 15:26 says but he answered and said ,it is not meet to
take the children’s bread and cast it to dogs. You
have to be sincerely born again to get what’s God’s.
Ask
for it: Matt 7:7 says ask and it shall be given you seek and ye shall find,
knock and it shall be opened unto you. God is willing and
waiting to release unto us whatever we request in line with His word, purpose
and time the onus is on us to ask.
SHALOM.
