Strength

Strength is really an amazing thing if you think about it. I hear all the time, people talking about how strong they had to be to make it through something, and how strong they wish they were, but I've realized something about strength. Strength is so amazing, because when you are connected with God, His strength becomes yours, and there is no greater strength than the strength of God. I never just type any old thing on my blog, when I come here to write, I'm writing from experience. I'm writing from a place of surety, and if I'm not sure of anything else in my life, I am sure that God loves me. I am sure that God has a plan for me that it is bigger than my human mind can even comprehend. Only God knows how badly I've suffered throughout my life, but I thank Him every single day for every trial I ever had to encounter. God is so good.


TD Jakes did a sermon a couple of years ago entitled "Nothing in my Hands," and in the sermon he talks about how Samson had an encounter with a lion, and how he defeated the lion with nothing in his hands. Have you ever been faced with a struggle that looked impossible to win, not only because the struggle was so great, but because you also went into the struggle with absolutely nothing. You have nothing, but you're in that struggle anyway, and don't you know that the only thing that you need to survive any struggle is God? Don't you know that he will put things in your life, in your way, in your heart, that you never even asked for, but you need more than you ever even realized? Don't you know that God has infinite knowledge, and that he sees the world on a level so grand that our meek little minds can't even imagine it. This sermon is so good, and it ministered to me on so many levels, because TD Jakes reminds us that after Samson defeats this lion (WITH NOTHING IN HIS HANDS), he looks down in the carcass and finds honey!! In the midst of EVERY struggle, don't you know that God is going to give you honey? He is going to fill up those hands that were once empty, he is going to do something so amazing with you that you won't have the heart to do anything else BUT give Him the glory! God is amazing, and it's vital that you get to know Him! Spend some time with God, worship God all throughout your busy day, and WATCH HIM WORK. I'm so on fire right now, because though I'm in the stormiest period of my life, I feel God's presence not only around me, but within me.


God is giving me a strength that words can't describe. This strength is through Him, and he'll do the same thing for you! If you need strength to get out of a bad situation, or to break a bad soul tie (more on soul ties later), then just call on God, because he will not only bless you out of that situation, but he'll use you for a greater purpose. Submit yourself to the will of God, and when you go into worship, go in with a thankful attitude. When you go into worship, don't ask God for one thing. He knows the desires of your heart. Show Him that you can give Him the praise. God has been so good to me, that is one thing I can say for sure, and I promise if you give your life over to Him, and start living for Him, he can do the same for you!
