I can do all things through him who strengthens me. – Philippians 4:13

It’s by Gods strength that you can accomplish all things that are in line with His will for you to accomplish. The key knowing what God has called you to do is to see if he has given you the supernatural strength to accomplish it through His Holy Spirit.

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

Hoping in the Lord is expecting that his promise of strength will help us rise above life’s distractions and difficulties. Keep this verse in mine when patiently waiting for something that you have been praying for.

Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.” – Deuteronomy 31:6

As Israel was about to cross over into the promise land Moses gave them a final encouragement. This was what they had been promised for years and they were at the verge of their breakthrough.  It was going to be a tough battle but God was with them. As you move forward to do the will of God, know that He will never abandon you but He will be right with you.

Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord:  “I will sing to the Lord, for he is highly exalted. Both horse and driver he has hurled into the sea. “The Lord is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. – Exodus 15:2 ESV

The Israelites just saw the mighty hand of God swallow up their enemies in the sea and allowed them to walk through on dry land.  Though this was a response to the miracle, we can use it as a reminder to praise and worship when we need God’s strength to accomplish something or for defense against the enemy.

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. – Psalm 46:1-3

The Lord is a place of security for his people. He is never too busy but always available.  The psalmist imagines terrible conditions on earth yet if even the worst things happens, we will not be afraid. God is always near to help us.

My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds. – Psalm 73:26-28

Asaph began this psalm with “But as for me my feet almost slipped.”  He finished it was But as for me , God’s presence is my good.  You have to ask, what happened from verses 2-28?  He encountered God in worship.  In the presence of God he found truth hope and strength that he needed.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Ephesians 6:10

This verse is from Ephesians 6, where is talks about the armor Christ that we should put on daily.  It is also often referring to spiritual warfare (Did an episode on this chapter back in 2019. Check the archives to listen)  Standing firm in the armor of God  doesn’t stop the battle from raging, but is stops it from defeating you.  Keep this in mind and it will strengthen you as you stand victorious through your battles.

Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually! – 1 Chronicles 16:11

If you are facing a situation that you can’t avoid and you need Gods strength to overcome, one of the things that you can do is seek Gods face for his strength.  When you spend time in God’s presence through worship and praise his strength will come over you and allow you to overcome all obstacles.
