STRONGER DAY BY DAY

Psalm 75:10 For God says, “I will break the strength of the wicked, but I will increase the power of the godly.”

What an encouraging verse!😊 Have you ever looked at your life and thought there are some strongholds that need bringing down? Maybe strongholds of fear, or lack of confidence, or depression, or unforgiveness, strongholds of impatience or resentment? Perhaps there are things in the physical realm, where work colleagues or family members are coming against you, or illness has attacked your body?

Well, be encouraged today because God wants us to realise the strength of those things has now been broken by Jesus when He defeated Satan at the Cross. 

Colossians 2:15 Having disarmed principalities and powers. He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. He broke the strongholds, He set us free in every area of our lives. He bought our freedom and whom the Son sets free is free indeed. (John 8:36) By faith we can declare “Jesus has set me free from …..…” Our faith filled words set the promise in motion.😊

But not only that, God says He is increasing the power of the godly - that’s you and me if we belong to Jesus Christ. We may think we’re not very strong, but God tells us He is increasing our power, our ability to resist the enemy and make him flee. Isn’t that uplifting? The enemy is defeated, his strength is broken, and we’re on the victory side, growing stronger every day. Hallelujah!😊

We can go out into our day with an overcoming mentality, not a victim mentality. Our part is to believe what God says and know the power of the things coming against us is broken, and remembering who we are in Christ and what He has empowered us to do in His name. 

Thank You Lord. Help us believe it and walk in it. Amen.
