May you be strengthened with
all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with
joy.
أنْ تَتَقَوَّوْا
بِكُلِّ قُوَّةٍ نَابِعَةٍ مِنْ قُوَّتِهِ المَجِيدَةِ، فَتَصَبِرُوا وَتَتَحَمَّلُوا
المَشَقَّاتِ بِفَرَحٍ.
Colossians 1:11
I can do all things through him
who strengthens me.
إِنِّي
أَسْتَطِيعُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، فِي الْمَسِيحِ الَّذِي يُقَوِّينِي.
Philippians 4:13
I will make them strong in the
Lord, and they shall walk in his name,” declares the Lord.
12 وَأُشَدِّدُهُمْ بِالرَّبِّ فَيَسْلُكُونَ بِمُقْتَضَى
اسْمِهِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.
Zechariah 10:12
He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths shall faint and
be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for 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.
يَهِبُ الْمَنْهُوكَ قُوَّةً وَيَمْنَحُ الضَّعِيفَ قُدْرَةً عَظِيمَةً. 30 إِنَّ
الشَّبِيبَةَ يَنَالُهَا الإِعْيَاءُ وَالإِرْهَاقُ، وَالْفِتْيَانُ يَتَعَثَّرُونَ
أَشَدَّ تَعَثُّرٍ، 31 أَمَّا الرَّاجُونَ الرَّبَّ فَإِنَّهُمْ
يُجَدِّدُونَ قُوَّتَهُمْ، وَيُحَلِّقُونَ بِأَجْنِحَةِ النُّسُورِ. يَرْكُضُونَ وَلا
يُعْيُونَ. يَمْشُونَ وَلا يَتْعَبُونَ.
Isaiah 40:29-31
As believers we need to ask God to strengthen
us through The Holy Spirit. The power of the Holy Spirit is the supernatural
tool God has given us believers to equip and enable us. The power of the Holy
Spirit is needed in order to do the work God calls us to accomplish. God has
given us a spirit of power, not of timidity- 2 Timothy 1:7
Serving others, loving our enemies, building
up one another in the faith, sharing Christ, and exercising our spiritual gifts
are possible only through the Holy Spirit’s power. We need The Holy Spirit’s
support and power to live the Christian life, to be loving, kind, gentle,
patient, joyous, self–controlled, and peaceful
I invite you to repeat the following prayer
for yourself:
Abba
Father, Adonai, please guide me and strengthen me to change my ways so as to
rely totally on Your wisdom and counsel through The Holy Spirit; whom You sent
to me in the name of Jesus. LORD, I pray that out of Your glorious riches You
strengthen me with power through Your Spirit in my inner being, so that Christ
may dwell in my heart through faith for all endurance and patience with joy. I
shall wait for You Lord to renew my strength to mount up with wings like
eagles; to run and not be weary or faint and to do all things that are
according to Your will through Christ’s strength. Thank You Father for Your
abundant blessings and deep inseparable love. Father God, I praise You, revere
You, worship You, I stand in awe of You, I lift You up on high, and glorify
Your holy name. I declare Jesus as my Lord and Saviour and I pray in His
precious name. To Jesus be the power, the glory, the authority, the majesty,
the blessings, and the dominion before all time, now, and forevermore. Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
