More About This Verse
MEANING
While God may not immediately and miraculously change our difficult circumstances, He does give us the power to face whatever is in front of us at the moment.
Are you struggling or suffering? God gives a fresh supply of spiritual—supernatural—strength and faith to those who have humble dependence on Him. When we try to get through difficulties in our own strength, we often fall short and become weary, unable to bear the burden. But God promises us a strength and power beyond our own as we continue to rely on Him.
Practice putting your mind to finding comfort, joy, and peace in Christ. You can learn more about doing this in Philippians 4:6-7.
