Precious Promise #3: Isaiah 40: 28-31

(New Living Translation)   

"Have you never heard?  Have you never understood?  The LORD is the everlasting God,  the Creator of all the earth.  He never grows weak or weary.  No one can measure the depths of his understanding.  He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.  Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion.  But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength.  They will soar high on wings like eagles.  They will run and not grow weary.  They will walk and not faint."

(Message) 

"Why would you ever complain, or whine saying, 'God has lost track of me. He doesn't care what happens to me?'  Don't you know anything? Haven't you been listening?  God doesn't come and go. God lasts. He's Creator of all you can see or imagine. He doesn't get tired out, doesn't pause to catch his breath. And he knows everything, inside and out. He energizes those who get tired, gives fresh strength to dropouts. For even young people tire and drop out, young folk in their prime stumble and fall. But those who wait upon God get fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles, They run and don't get tired, they walk and don't lag behind." 

Be encouraged! Regardless of what you are facing, God remains in complete control. He is not unaware.

Situations that exhaust you, do not phase God.

In fact, if we continue to press hard into Him in the middle of our circumstances, He will provide strength and energy in those very moments. Not just strength to survive or to get by.... but fresh strength.

Strength to soar above our situation.  Strength to run to the very end.

What promise have you been reminded of this week?
