“And he said unto me, ‘My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me'” (2 Cor. 12:9).
When you run into an impossible situation, a situation you simply don’t have the strength or the ability to handle, are you often tempted to simply give up and accept defeat? Don’t! Instead shout, “Glory!” Because the Word says God’s strength is about to be made perfect in you.
The word translated “strength” in this scripture is “dunamis.” It means “God’s miracle-working power.” Just think about that. When your human strength ends, God has promised that His miraculous power will bring you through!
If you’ll look in Acts 14, you can see that promise in action. There the scriptures say that the Apostle Paul was stoned by a group of Jews, taken out of the city and left for dead. Paul’s human strength had ended. He was absolutely powerless.
But, the disciples gathered around him and prayed and the Lord raised him up, and he went on his way. In other words, when Paul didn’t have enough human strength to overcome, God’s miracle-working power was sufficient for him. It enabled him to be an overcomer in spite of his weakness!
So, if you are facing a crisis today— if you’re sick and medicine has failed you—if your finances are out of control—if your family is falling apart—if bad habits have you hopelessly bound—if you’ve done absolutely all you know to do and you still haven’t gotten results—Then rejoice! For when human strength ends, the power of God excels!
Only believe! God’s grace is sufficient for you!
