Spiritual Strength

I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13

How strong would you have to be to defeat the Incredible Hulk? You’d probably need biceps the size of boulders and superhuman strength. How strong is the Hulk exactly? He’s so strong that he could lift a planet over his head or destroy an asteroid in one punch.

While it would be nice to have limitless physical strength like the Hulk, as Christians, we have something even better…spiritual strength. The apostle Paul said “I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.”

Paul was imprisoned for five years for preaching the Gospel, and although his body was weak, Jesus gave him the spiritual strength to overcome his circumstances. He continued spreading the Good News by writing letters from prison.

What challenges do you face in your life?

Is there someone who teases you at school?

Do you have a hard time getting along with your brothers or sisters?

Pray and ask Jesus for the strength to overcome these difficulties. He will give you everything you need.
