…Be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides]. Ephesians 6:10 (AMPC)

Paul assures us that God will pour strength into our lives as we live in close relationship with Him.

An important secret to being successful in any task that is set before you is to draw on God’s strength. Your strength will run out eventually, but God’s strength never will. Prophet Isaiah says that those who have learned the secret of waiting on the Lord “shall mount up with wings as eagles” (see Isaiah 40:31 KJV). God has promised to never leave us or forsake us. He is with us each step of our journey and He has promised to give us the strength we need when we need it.

Prayer of the Day: Father God, I know You want to do more than just give me strength—You want to be my strength. Thank You for that strength, amen.
