God gives power to the weak, & to those who have no might, He increases strength. Through God’s grace and the indwelling Holy Spirit, we have power from on high. We already have this the moment we believed the gospel. But we must stay in His word, study the Bible, and pray to maintain our strength in the Lord.

Isaiah 40:29 says, “He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might, He increases strength.” When we feel weak and powerless, we can turn to God for strength. He is the source of all power and can give us the strength we need to face any challenge.

In Philippians 4:13, Paul writes, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” This verse reminds us that our strength comes from Christ, and we can do all things with His help through the Holy Spirit that indwells us. We do not have to rely on our own strength, which will always fail us, but instead, we can turn to Christ and receive His strength.

In 2 Corinthians 12:9, Paul writes about his own weaknesses and how he turned to God for strength. He says, “And He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore, most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” Paul recognized that his weakness was an opportunity for God to show His strength. When we acknowledge our own weakness, we can turn to God and trust that His strength is made perfect in our weakness.

Isaiah 40:29 also reminds us that God gives power to the weak. When we feel like we have no strength, we can turn to God and trust that He will give us the power we need. In 1 Corinthians 1:27, Paul writes, “But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty.” God often uses the weak and powerless to accomplish His purposes. When we feel like we have nothing to offer, we can trust that God can use us for His glory.

In conclusion, Isaiah 40:29 reminds us that we can find strength in God. We do not have to rely on our own strength, which will fail us. Instead, we can turn to Christ and trust that His strength is made perfect in our weakness. We can be confident that God will give us the power we need to face any challenge.
