Be a strong army
School has started. Back to those days where we have to endure tiresome lessons and also workhard. No more playing all the time. (=
But God is still the same as when we were in the holidays. And He wants to carry on His work. In Eph 6:10, Paul writes 'finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.' This is a command for us to remain in God's strength. God's strength is endless, He doesn't get tired. His strength is described in 1 Sam 15:29, that He will not change His mind nor retract His actions. And Paul says we must have God's strength. How?
By praying. Eph 6:18 says that we are to pray at all times with 'all prayers and petition'. Prayer is the means we rely on God. Charles Finney said that the amount of time you spend in prayer is the measure of your reliance on God. We will do well to rely on God. Prayer tires the body but energizes the spirit.
To do eternal, spiritual things we need God's strength. Let's seek Him this week for strength. God is
OPENING UP YOUR SCHOOLS again. We must keep up with what He's doing. Be strong for the work of God!!
