HOW TO ACCESS SUPERNATURAL STRENGTH

SCRIPTURE: Even the youth shall faint and be weary and the young men shall utterly fall but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagle; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk; and not faint. – Isaiah 40:30-31

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The more of God you know, the stronger you get in the spirit.

It has been established that strength is needed to fulfil one’s purpose in life. That is why we were not created by God to be weak and sick. Our God who created us in His image and likeness is a powerful God. Thus, we are expected to function like Him; and if we are to function like God, we must not lack strength.

How then does one access supernatural strength to fulfil God’s purpose in life?
Supernatural strength can be accessed through the following:

1. The knowledge of God: Daniel 11:32 says, “… but the people that do know their God they shall be strong and do exploits.” This means, the knowledge of God is a sponsor of strength; it’s a fuel for strength. The more of God you know, the stronger you get in the spirit. Knowledge generally brings strength. Proverbs 24:5 confirms this when it says, “A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.” The prayer of a man who wants to increase in supernatural strength should be: “Lord, cause me to know You.”

2. The Joy of the Lord or the Light of Praise: The joy of the Lord shall be your strength (Nehemiah 8:10b). A life of praise supplies strength. That is to say, depression deprives people of strength. A depressed person sleeps tired and wakes tired. Depression causes a person to loose spiritual energy. The joy of the Lord is a secret of strength.

Remember this: The more of God you know, the stronger you get in the spirit.

ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Daily declare your reliance on God for total victory
2. Endeavour to embark on praise, worship and study of the Word daily to draw strength from His Presence.
