Promises For The Broken Hearted - Philippians 4:13

I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.
- Philippians 4:13
In this verse we are given assurance that we can face anything in this life… not by our own strength, but by being infused with Christ’s strength in us. The Bible says in Romans 8:11 that the same power and strength that raised Christ from the dead, is the same power that is in us. As believers, we also have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit that empowers us and enables us.
When we say that we can’t do something because it is too hard, or we can’t take anymore …in our own strength that might be true… but we have this promise and assurance that what we can’t do on our own, we can do through Jesus. We can find peace and contentment in our circumstances because we are equipped by God Himself. What a comfort to know our sufficiency is in Him and not ourselves.
This verse should remove any sense of dread, anxiousness or hopelessness we might feel and we can feel empowered and confident in Christ. We can face each day, knowing that we can get through and cope with every trial, hurt, loss, temptation, or difficult situation with Christ’s help. It’s with His power that we can love as He loves and forgive as He forgives.
Be encouraged friend…you have the strength to overcome, because of who strengthens you!
