| Strength in Dependency |
|
| TODAY’S SCRIPTURE |
| “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 of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” |
| (2 Corinthians 12:9, ESV) |
|
| TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria |
|
We
all have areas where we need to come up higher. Perhaps you’ve
struggled with a certain area year after year. Instead of getting down
on yourself or trying to find solutions on the internet, maybe it’s time
to pray and say, “God, I need Your help. I’m asking for Your strength.”
When
you humble yourself and admit that you cannot do it on your own, that’s
when God can enter the scene. That’s when He can turn it around. A lot
of times we think of dependency in a negative light, but dependency on
God is not a weakness; it’s a strength. It enables you to tap into His
power. When we yield our weakness, that’s when God shows up the
strongest. But when we don’t turn to God, really, that’s a sign of
pride. We’re saying, “God, I don’t really need You to help me run my
life. I’m doing okay. I’ve got it all figured out.” God will step back
and let us do it on our own.
Today, what is holding you back? Surrender it to God. Let Him do His perfect work. Find strength in your dependency on Him.
|

|
| A PRAYER FOR TODAY |
| Father, today I surrender all to You. Search my heart and mind. Show me if there is any area where I am trying to lean on my own strength. I choose today to trust and rely on You knowing that Your strength is perfect in my weakness in Jesus’ name. Amen. |
| — Joel & Victoria Osteen |
