THE BATTLE MAKES YOU STRONGER
Hebrews 11 tells us about the great men of faith. I am always inspired by Hebrews 11:34 where it says that "out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in the fight." Even the great warriors of faith didn't start out strong. They began in weakness, but they became stronger with each battle they fought.
Do you sometimes feel weak as you face your battles in life? Don't give up. And don't spurn the battles, for each battle is going to make you stronger as you learn to trust the Lord to fight for you.
J. B. Phillip's says, "From being weaklings they became strong men and mighty warriors."
The Amplified version says, "Out of frailty and weakness won strength and became stalwart, even mighty and resistless in battle, routing alien hosts."
Be encouraged. Your battles will make you stronger.
