Today's Scripture
“.....but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will
soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk
and not be faint.”
Isaiah 40:31
RENEWAL OF STRENGTH!
Do you need your strength renewed today? The scripture tells us that
when we hope in the Lord, that's exactly what will happen, our strength
will be renewed. If you've grown weary and tired, overwhelmed by the
cares of this world, it's a clear sign that you need to change what you're
putting your hope in. Are you putting your hope in your job? The
government? The economy? Another person? Those are all things that
will change. But when you hope in the Lord, you are investing in the
Rock of Ages! He never changes! He is the only solid foundation for your
soul.
Waiting on the Lord means you re putting your trust and hope in Him.
You re living with an attitude of faith and expectancy. In the natural, if
you are waiting for someone like a special dinner guest, you probably
aren t just sitting around the house wondering what will happen. No,
you re probably preparing for that special person, straightening the
house and making sure everything is perfect for their arrival. Most
likely, you started weeks in advance making the menu and deciding
what to wear! In the same way, when you are waiting on the Lord, it
doesn t mean you are just sitting around. It means you are preparing for
Him.
Are you ready for God to move on your behalf? Are you waiting on Him?
As you take a step of faith, He ll meet you there. As you renew your
mind with the Word of God, you'll nd strength, you'll nd hope, and
He ll renew your strength and lead you into victory in every area of your
life!
Prayer
