YOU HAVE THE STRENGTH OF GOD

“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)

To have the strength of God, you must turn to Him and receive Him as life.

To have the Holy Spirit in you is to have the supply-center of strength in you.

The Holy Spirit dispenses and distributes all of the virtues of God into you.

“O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God! Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.” Isaiah 40:9-10 (KJV)

The Prophet Isaiah explains the extensiveness and limitlessness of the strength of God (Isaiah 40:12-28).

Now, you see in verses 29 – 31, the Prophet Isaiah explains how God supplies strength to those who are His.

Because God’s strength doesn’t faint, those who faint are strengthened by Him.

“He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Isaiah 40:29-31 (KJV)

The phrase, “even the youth shall faint”, is a depiction of how the strongest shall faint even in their prime. The youthful season is the prime season of every natural thing.

It is normal to faint in old age. It may even seem normal to grow weak after you have been pressed by challenges. It may seem normal to grow tired and become exhausted.

Yet the testimony of those who WAIT upon the Lord is different. Those who WAIT upon the Lord shall renew their strength.

Now the Lord gives power to the faint and causes strength and ability to abound towards those who lack might.

It doesn’t matter how the vicissitudes have beaten you up and crushed you; the moment you turn and open up to the LORD, strength is dispensed and distributed to you.

You cannot find divine strength outside God. To have divine strength you must have God. As a believer in Christ, you have the advantage; God lives in you, therefore His strength is inside you.

You can accomplish more with the strength of God when it is RENEWED. To RENEW the strength of God, you must learn to WAIT UPON THE LORD.

To wait upon the Lord is not just an imagery of a “Waiter” in a restaurant. The word WAIT is from the Hebrew word, “qâvâh . The primitive root for “qâvâh” means “TO BIND TOGETHER”.

To wait upon the Lord means to look patiently to the Lord, to expect and to be tied to the Lord. It means you are knitted and plaited with and to the LORD.

Jesus said, “I am the sprouting vine and you’re my branches. As you live in union with me as your source, fruitfulness will stream from within you—but when you live separated from me you are powerless.” John 15:5 (TPT)

Inasmuch as it is good to be a tree, it is far greater and better to be a branch. The strength and fruitfulness of a branch are dependent on the tree. You must be knitted to the Lord as a fruitful branch is to a great tree.

Don’t be separated and be distracted or moved away from the Lord.
