EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
Guest writer: WWL Dana Cryer -Texas
“…they that wait upon the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings likes eagles;
they will run and not be weary, they will walk and not faint.”
Isaiah 40:31
I love this Scripture…a reminder that no one can be holy in their own strength and we must wait on the LORD!
“Do you not know? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow weary, and His understanding no one can fathom.”
Isaiah 40:28
“He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Isaiah 40:29
Isaiah’s prophecy in this book is of the coming of Christ. Isaiah drops many “pearls” of information about how and where the Messiah will arrive, as well as what His ministry will be. This, he declares, is the basis for our hope. He writes, “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.”
Isaiah 9:2
One way to spend this time is in reading God’s Word, which enlightens and stirs God’s people on. Talking to God in prayer gives us a chance to pour our burdens and find rest in His presence as we rejuvenate. When we try to push through fatigue on our own for too long, nothing may seem to help right away. BUT our LORD promises that He will never leave us empty or alone if we seek Him. So in time, we will receive not on a boost for the moment but equipping to “soar” through life’s situations and demands.
Praise God that His supply of strength never diminishes, and it is always available to us.
Let’s wait upon our Father God, and allow Him to give us His strength only.
Be blessed and remember you are God’s Beloved and anointed for such a time as this.
