John 8:32
A LIE BELIEVED AS TRUTH WILL AFFECT YOU AS IF IT WERE TRUE.
John 8:44 “When the devil lies, he speaks his native language for he is a liar, and he is called the father of lies.”
In every situation, you must be strong.
That is not focusing on the solution.
John 8:32 “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
We are told that admitting a weakness or a challenge is weak.
Provisionally strong .
Are you able to accept responsibility for the problems or challenges of your own life?
Are you spiritually strong?
Are you professionally strong?
The devil has lied to you, telling you that you must do this.
God never intended you to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders.
Your strength is intentionally limited.
God’s strength is unlimited.
Isaiah 40:30-31 “Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 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.”
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 “But He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”
The lie of the enemy tells us never to show your dependence upon God.
“Unmerited favor.”
“His grace is sufficient”
“Eliminating a barrier.”
If he cannot break you, he will drive you into oblivion so that you will become weary in well-doing.
Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
The truth is, you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you!
Stop focusing on what you want, and focus instead of what you have.
Learn to live in the moment.
"Success in life is often nothing more than going from one failure to the next with undiminished enthusiasm."
“For I can do everything God asks me to do with the help of Christ who gives me the strength and power.”
1. You must identify your weaknesses
2. You must believe in God’s strength
3. We must exchange our weakness for His strength.
I have faith in God's ability in spite of my inability.
"I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me!"
