Strength

Strength: the quality or state of being strong. We often consider the Oxford or Webster dictionary definition when we think of strength. These worldly definitions highlight physical strength, which is only seen or felt in the natural. There is another form of strength that takes spiritual awareness and agility to uphold. That is spiritual strength.

Spiritual strength is strength given to us through God’s grace and mercy. This strength is sovereign over all other forms because they stem from spiritual strength. Spiritual strength gives us the capacity to survive, overcome, and obtain victory. Spiritual strength gives us the power to withstand every fiery dart aimed and shot at us. We can not acquire spiritual strength by going to the gym or living a nutritionally healthy lifestyle; this strength is only built through intimacy with God.

Psalms 18:34-35 (EASY) states, “He teaches me how to fight in war. He makes my arms strong to shoot arrows from a bronze bow. Lord, your power has helped me to be strong.”

Allow the Lord to help you to be strong in every battle. Allow Him to carry and sustain you as he teaches and graces your hands to war. It is not over with you! He has given you the tools to fight and the courage to conquer!
