FEELINGS OF POWERLESSNESS!
I don’t know about you but for me there are days I feel so overwhelmed by the weight of everything that seems to be crashing in on me. I get these feelings of absolute powerlessness and I begin to feel like Satan is having a field-day beating me around. You ever feel that way? Maybe you feel that way right now…?
D.L. Moody made a statement that has become a lifesaver for me in these situations. He said, “When a man has no strength, if he leans on God, he becomes powerful.” Satan’s tactic is to get our eyes off of the only One who has the power to overcome him. He will do and act in whatever way necessary to lead our eyes and thoughts away from God…and God’s abilities.
If you are struggling today, refocus, realign your sights…look to God and to His strength and find His peace that passes all understanding. Isaiah said it beautifully when he said: “But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint” (Is 40:31).
Look to the Lord today, mount up with His wings; run without weariness; walk without fainting and stand in the face of the enemy and declare your freedom and independence founded upon the Rock—Jesus Christ!
God bless you this special day!
