Bible Verse of The Day – 1-7-22

Isaiah 40:28-29 (NKJV) 28 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, Neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. 29 He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength.

Sometimes the things we face in life, or even the things we spend time thinking about, can make us feel weak. They pull on us and make us weary from the thinking.

This is a normal part of being human. We are flesh and bone, with weaknesses and frailties.

If we try to bear everything that we come up against, it won’t be long before we’re completely worn down and ready to give up, throwing in the towel and surrendering to whatever it is that we are battling against.

Thankfully we don’t have to bear these things alone. God wants to help us with them. He wants us to learn to bring these things to Him and give them to Him instead of trying to pretend that we’re superhuman and invincible.

None of us is invincible; not a single one.

Jesus was our example. Despite His ability to heal the sick, deliver from demons and raise the dead, He too was frail in His humanity. He grew tired at times.

But the difference was that He knew when to pull away, spend time with the Father, and give His burdens to Him. It was this that gave Him the strength to face everything that He needed to face.

And by doing so, He overcame the enemy and the schemes that were being carried out against Him.

It’s time for us to learn from Jesus, following His lead, making sure we pull away and spend time with the Father, casting our cares upon Him.

1 Peter 5:6-7 (NKJV) 6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
