Where do you find your strength?

The nations of the world boast on their military strength. Their military might gives them national confidence and a sure footing among the neighboring nations. Many individuals boast in their weapons, and even how smart they are. But that is limited in nature. There will always be someone mightier and smarter that you. For the believer, their confidence and boast is in the Lord. He is the one who makes us strong. He is the one who miraculously delivers us from the hand of the enemy. He is the one that gives us the victory! I will make my boast in the Lord. I will put my trust in the Lord. Weapons may fail you. Your knowledge may fail you, but God in Christ in never fail you!

Psalm 20:7 (TPT) Some find their strength in their weapons and wisdom, but my miracle deliverance can never be won by men. Our boast is in the Lord our God, who makes us strong and gives us victory!

It is good to depend upon the Lord!

Trust is a powerful belief. When we trust, we act with positive dependance upon those we trust. Trust breeds security and confidence in relationships. Trust causes us to feel safe with someone else because we perceive them as being reliable. We can depend upon a trustworthy person. This is one of the most important factors in any successful relationship. Lamentations 3:25,26 (NLT) says: “The Lord is good to those who depend on him, to those who search for him. So it is good to wait quietly for salvation from the Lord.” Psalm 5:11 says: “But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them; Let those also who love Your name Be joyful in You.” People might have failed you in the past, but never allow that to filter in to your relationship with God. God is not a man that He should lie. If He said it, He will do it; If He spoke it, He will bring it to pass! Let your trust in the Lord be your anchor and strength in your life. Even if people fail you, God is with you. He will never fail you. Remember, the Lord is good to those who depend on Him!
