RENEWING YOUR STRENGTH

But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: "God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble." – James 4:6

It is humanly impossible to serve God faithfully and acceptably without relying on His grace. The grace of God is the divine grease that keeps you going when others are falling by the way side. But those who assume that their might is sufficient to carry them thorough, never get to the end of the road. When a believer gets to the point when he assumes that his human strength can guarantee his victory over the devil, he has actually gotten to a point of delusion. Hence, as a good steward of God, you shouldn’t be weary of drawing new strength to forge ahead in your pilgrimage with God.

Those that wait upon the Lord don’t faint in the days of adversity. If you wait frequently upon the Lord in prayers and intimate communion, the gate of hell won’t be able to resist your advancement. As long as you keep waiting on the Lord, new strength would be poured out on you to keep you fit and strong, so you could reach your goal. Elijah wouldn’t have reached a high point in his ministry if he didn’t put on a new strength, powered by his feasting on the divine meal that was sent to him by the angel of the Lord. Hence, feasting on the Bread of Life and blood of Christ is a sure source of divine energy renewal, to keep you spiritually fit for tireless walk with God.

Anyone who chooses to walk with God in humility qualifies for daily divine renewal of strength. The Bible says God gives more grace to the humble but He resists the proud. A proud fellow is beclouded from seeing why He needs God to keep him in the race to his ultimate destination. While a humble fellow acknowledges the fact that he will crumble if he gambles on his human strength to finish strong. Hence, he frequently runs to God for the divine exchange of his weakness for a new strength. Undoubtedly, humility is what keeps you going before God’s presence to pray and seek God’s face for more grace and strength to progress in your walk with God. May you not wear out as you daily put on new strength from above, to keep you running passionately and purposefully without being weary in Jesus name.
