Introduction
When our circumstances get rough, God’s inspired words can lift us up and give us the strength and courage to carry on.
This week's theme
Divine Strength.
Psalm 46: 1:
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
Psalm 119: 28:
My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word.
Proverbs 18: 10:
The name of the LORD is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.
Isaiah 40: 29 - 31:
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
2 Corinthians 12: 9 - 10:
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
Ephesians 6: 10 - 11:
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armour of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.
Conclusion
Philippians 4: 11 - 13: I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.
