Only he who can say, "The Lord is the strength of my life" can say, "Of whom shall I be afraid?" Author: Alexander MacLaren |
You become stronger only when you become weaker. When you surrender your will to God, you discover the resources to do what God requires. Author: Erwin Lutzer Source: Men of Integrity, v. 1, n. 1. |
We learn about guidance primarily by learning about the Guide. It is the knowledge of God and His ways with men which ultimately gives us stability in doing His will. Author: Sinclair B. Ferguson Source: Discovering God's Will |
There will be no "knights in shining armor" in God's kingdom; our armor will have many dings and dents. No, no perfect Hollywood heroes will ride to save the day; just wearied saints to look to God and, in weakness, find Christ's strength. This, indeed, is the essence of God's kingdom: divine greatness manifest in common people. Author: Francis Frangipane |
Prayer wonderfully clears the vision; steadies the nerves; defines duty; stiffens the purpose; sweetens and strengthens the spirit. Author: S.D. Gordon |
If we are whimpering, and sniveling, and begging to be spared the discipline of life that is sent to knock some smatterings of manhood into us, the answer to that prayer may never come at all. Thank God! If you are not bleating to get off, but asking to be given grace and strength to see this through with honour, "The very day" you pray that prayer, the answer always comes. Author: A.J.

You know God gives me that inner strength that super strength to get through things. Author: Duane Chapman |
It is possible for you to do all things through Christ strengthening you, even to overleap the highest walls, to break bows of steel in pieces, and wade through the deepest fords in your way. Author: Ralph Erskine |
You don't get strength for the load; you get strength from the load. Author: Jack Hyles |
God never gives us anything to do that He does not give us the strength to do. Author: Jack Hyles |
When God wants to move a mountain, he does not take a bar of iron, but he takes a little worm. The fact is, we have too much strength. We are not weak enough. It is not our strength that we want. One drop of God's strength is worth more than all the world. Author: D.L. Moody |
Remember, it is not your weakness that will get in the way of God's working through you, but your delusions of strength. His strength is made perfect in our weakness! Point to His strength by being willing to admit your weakness. Author: Paul David Tripp Source: Age of Opportunity, p. 189, |
