The Promises of God:

"My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness" (2 Corinthians 12:9)

Another promise to help us when we just run out of our own resources! HIS STRENGTH - HE never asked us to muster the strength or go on in our own power - just rely on HIM for the complexities of life - HIS GRACE - HIS STRENGTH - it will be enough to meet the need!

The Word works!

The Promises of God:

"He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint" (Isaiah 40:29-31).

Looking at this verse once more - we see the promise of mounting up with wings as eagles - when life is bearing down us - flying away like an eagle sounds just about right - ! Although we cannot fly AWAY from life - we can in our spirits with God's grace - rise up and fly over our mountains just as the eagles soar high in the sky - Not by might, not by power but by my Spirit... let's wait on HIM!

This verse is packed with promise! The word "faint" means to "lose heart" - and don't we find that almost at every turn of the road the enemy is lurking to find another way to make us lose heart! ? Our God of angel armies knew we would have this ongoing struggle - so HE prepared a solution - "they that wait upon the Lord" ....they shall walk and NOT lose heart! May that thought "courage you up" today!

The Promises of God:

"A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth" (Isaiah 42:3).

The same WARRIOR God that we spoke of yesterday - is also a tender compassionate friend. Sometimes we find ourselves like "bruised reeds" - but He does not cast us off - He comes and heals and binds our wounds and sets us on our feet again until we are able to walk forward and join the ranks once again.

The Promises of God:

"And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly" (Romans 16:20).

Look at who is doing the bruising - our God of peace! :-) He is our WARRIOR - CAPTAIN of the hosts of ANGEL ARMIES - "we will not fear - for God has willed HIS truth to triumph through us" Knowing the outcome does not make the battles along the way any less fierce - but it keeps us from quitting!
