THE HOLY SPIRIT STRENGTHENS YOU
“And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry,”
1 Timothy 1:12 (NKJV)
God desires that you partner with Him for the fulfillment of His purpose.
However, most people are threatened by the immensity of God’s assignment, and begin to shy away from getting involved.
But you don’t have to shy away from getting involved in God’s work. God doesn’t just put you in the ministry, He supplies you with all that you need to do what He wants you to do.
“I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has granted me [the needed] strength and made me able for this, because He considered me faithful and trustworthy, putting me into service [for this ministry],” 1 Timothy 1:12 (Amplified Bible).
The Lord gives you strength and ability; yours is to be counted faithful for His good work.
As partners with God, you don’t labour by your strength.
“…For by strength no man shall prevail.” 1 Samuel 2:9
And you don’t do what you can do, you do what God has strengthened you to do.
No human strength can succeed at God’s work. It will take the supply of His grace.
Paul said here also;
“Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God” 1 Corinthians 3:5
This is why you must pray!
This is why you commune with the Holy Spirit.
This is why you must depend on the Lord fully to do what He inspires you to do.
Don’t trust in your own strength; receive more and more strength from the Lord.
Don’t look at yourself and your skills. They are not enough for the Lord’s work. The Holy Spirit is in you as the unending supply of the strength of God. Take advantage of your relationship with Him.
Shalom.
DIG DEEPER:
(1 Corinthians 15:10; 2 Corinthians 4:1; Acts 9:22; Philippians 4:13)
WE PRAY:
– That we will take advantage of the sufficient ability of God within us.
BIBLE READING
Day 220
Proverbs 1-3
John 10
DECLARE THESE WORDS:
– My sufficiency is of the Lord.
– The Holy Spirit is my strengthener.
– I don’t lack strength.
– I do all things by the enabling ability of God within me.
– I don’t trivialize my fellowship with the Holy Spirit.
– Through prayer and the study of God’s word, I increase daily in strength.
Oh Hallelujah, GLOREEEEY!
