The Strength Only The LORD Can Give!
It is God who girded me with strength and makes my way perfect. ( Psalm 18:32)
At one time in my life, circumstances overwhelmed me. Fear tried to rule every day of my life, for the very unexpected journey I found myself in at that time.
It was kind of like the inner pep-talk that would go from, “Well it can’t get any worse, or maybe it can,” to “God’s got this!”
Most of the time, that was my conversation with myself before my feet would hit the floor in the mornings.
It was like my life had taken one wild detour, and I was feeling like God packed up and moved on without me.
During this time, I didn’t just pray, but cried out with every fiber of my being. I needed more than just another sermon illustration.
It was a time when I not only needed to know God was near, but that he would see me through.
I needed the strength only He could give me. He equipped me with that strength and my feet did not slip.
I want to say, if you feel like for one minute to give up, you don’t have to comprehend the whole journey. You only need strength to make that one more step.
God’s Plans are always bigger and better than ours!
The top of your mountain may seem far fetched right now, but when it is all out of control, just know that God has it all under control. He is equipping you with the strength only He can give!
I have been in that pit, stuck in the miry clay, I have been in the fiery furnace, when it seemed the devil turned it up ten times hotter.
I have been in some pretty low valleys, where darkness and fear wanted to rule me.
I have been in the lions den, where the enemy would love to have devoured me.
Oh, but my feet held His Steps and kept His Ways, and did not decline.
When he tried me, I came forth as Gold!
So I pray that infusion of His mighty Strength that only God can give, to fill you right now in the place and valley you find yourself in.
Giving up is not an option! You came too far to turn back now!
It is that Strength that caused me to soar above this in my own life, and you shall do the same.
This desert will bloom. The rivers will run through this wilderness, and that mountain in your way is sinking into the sea.
The dawn is breaking in that valley. You are getting back up and your King, sweet Precious King Jesus, Whose name that is above every name and like honey to my lips.
He is equipping you with the Strength that only He can give!
You are not meant to just survive, but to thrive!

Father, please, have mercy on me, I am in repentance from years of sins, brought on me from my childhood. I am old, and weak, alone, and isolated at lot now Lord, but You know my life, my heart, and truth. I have loved Jesus, Your Son from my childhood. His Blood is my only Hope, I know. Thank You Jesus for Your blood.
Sister Dana!!! I was friends with you on Facebook some years ago and I loved your ministry!!! I had to give up social media, especially Facebook, for very painful and cruel reasons. I miss my ministry friends like you. This was especially good for me. I am isolated, alone, at 69, living in a tent, and more. Praying and travailing for some I love, and those worse off than me!
Yes – Thank you for that word Dana – brings encouragement to me !
Thank you Dana, I really needed to hear those words. May the good Lord bless you continuously.
