When we reach the end of our strength, we discover the beginning of God's power - Wesleyne
Bible Verse of the Day
That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.- 2 Corinthians 12:10 (NIV)
Summary
In this episode, we explore the paradoxical truth that embracing our weaknesses and difficulties can lead to profound strength.
The Apostle Paul’s statement in 2 Corinthians 12:10 reveals a deep spiritual principle: when we are at our lowest, God’s strength is most evident.
By acknowledging our own limitations and turning to God in our moments of pain and hardship, we open ourselves to His divine support and empowerment.
This message encourages us to find joy in our struggles, knowing that they are opportunities for God’s strength to shine through us.
We are reminded to cry out to God in our pain and trust that He will uplift us and fill our gaps with His strength.
