February 16 Devotion - God is the rock and strength of my heart



My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the rock and strength
of my heart and my portion forever.
إِنَّ جَسَدِي وَقَلْبِي يَفْنَيَانِ، أَمَّا اللهُ فَهُوَ صَخْرَةُ قَلْبِي وَنَصِيبِي إِلَى الدَّهْرِ
Mon corps peut s’épuiser et mon cœur défaillir, Dieu reste mon rocher,
et mon bien précieux pour toujours.
Psalm 73:26

A lesson that; I believe; would be very beneficial for us to learn is that if we are looking to the love or appreciation of another person(s) to solve our problem(s) then this should be a clear indication to us that the problem lies within us and is not one that the other’s love or appreciation can solve.
There must be something deep within us that needs healing. And until that “something” is identified, addressed, and healed we will not be in a healthy position either to receive love fully or to give love generously. We need to come to God and express our feelings. We need to ask Him to reveal the real nature of the problem(s) and to heal us of its root cause through the Holy Spirit.


I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba Father, thank You for loving me with a deep and everlasting love, thank You for Your abundant blessings in my life, and for the riches of Your grace upon my life. Lord, I need You to strengthen me though Your Spirit in my inner being so that I can identify the problems within me and their root causes and ask Your Holy Spirit to heal me. God You are the rock and strength of my heart and my portion forever. Lord you are the only true healer, restore me and make me whole so that I can love and be loved fully. Now to Him who is able to carry out His purpose and do infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Ephesians 3:20-21 (AMP) Amen.

Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
