Renew Your Strength
Isaiah 40: 31 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.
Even the most inspired Christians can, from time to time, find themselves running on empty. The demands of daily life can drain us of our strength and rob us of the joy that is rightfully ours in Christ. When we find ourselves tired, discouraged, or worse, there is a source from which we can draw the power needed to recharge our spiritual batteries. That source is God.
As time goes on, people in general live more and more in a state of great worry. Indeed our time is full of unpredictable events; in the current world, numerous circumstances are creating a lot of trouble and turmoil. And yet God created this earth and mankind with a most precise aim in mind. In this transitional period, God is saying some things to his people.
Even the strongest people get tired. But God’s power and strength never diminishes. He is never too tired or too busy to help or to listen. His strength is our source of strength. When we feel that all of live is crushing us and we can’t go another step. Remember that you can call on God to renew your strength. We all need regular times to listen to God. Waiting on the Lord is expecting his promised strength to help us rise above life’s distractions and difficulties. Listening to God helps us be prepared when he speaks. Be patient when he asks us to wait and expect him to fulfill his promises found in his word.
Ps 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
God is not a temporary retreat. He is our eternal refuge and can provide strength for any circumstances. His power is complete; and victory is certain. He will not fail to rescue those who love him.
Waiting is one of the hardest things for us to do. Yet God asks us to wait on him and as we do our strength will be renewed. Today, like every other day, is literally brimming with possibilities. Whether we realize it or not, God is always working in us and through us; our job is to let Him do His work without undue interference. Yet we are imperfect beings who, because of our limited vision, often resist God’s will. And oftentimes, because of our stubborn insistence on squeezing too many activities into a 24-hour day, we allow ourselves to become exhausted or frustrated, or both. Are you tired or troubled? Turn your heart toward God in prayer. And while you’re at it, pray for the wisdom to simplify your life. When you do, you’ll discover that, with God as your partner, you can accomplish the important tasks He places before you today, tomorrow, and every day of your life. Be strong in the Lord and the Power of His Might. Live Well, Laugh Often, Love Much. Blessings on you. God Loves You and so do I. ...Pastor Tammy
