He Increases Your Strength

He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound].
—Isaiah 40:29

I remember times when I would minister to a very long prayer line, and I could feel myself just starting to cave in physically and even mentally. I would stop for a second and inside I would say, "Lord, I need help here—I need You to refresh me." And as the Scripture promises, He increased my strength, causing it to multiply and abound. If you are sitting at your desk or cleaning your house, if you have worked all day then need to go home and cut the grass or change the oil in the car, the Lord can refresh you.

Lean back for a minute and let Him give you that power. Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not faint or grow weary; there is no searching of His understanding. He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound] (Isaiah 40:28-29).

From the book New Day, New You by Joyce Meyer.

Amen!

Without my God, I would never be able to live through each day clean and sober. My God does for me what I can`t do for myself. That strength is there, the courage to work through the pain, and finding serenity in my life, no matter what is going on. Some days, it takes a lot of prayer and meditation.
