Through Christ All Things Are Possible
- 1. Through Christ! A message from Jesus When you truly lean on Me and depend on My strength, then nothing will be too difficult for you to handle. It's not that you will never have difficult things to do, but they won’t become so huge that they crush you or overwhelm you. Equally, it's not that there will never be any plain hard work that you have to buckle down and do, but that work is less daunting when you depend on Me through the process.
- 2. When you come across something that you know is going to be very hard for you to do, you have to trust that I will also give you the strength to do it. But you only get this promised strength through Me—by spending time alone with Me. As it says in Philippians 4:13 (NKJV), “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” It's not easy to discipline yourself to get quiet, to calm your spirit and bring it into subjection to My Spirit so that you can absorb My strength and My peace, especially in the middle of a hectic day. But by doing so, you will learn how to handle pressure without feeling under pressure.
- 3. You may need to train yourself to lean on Me for your strength. If you don't figure out how to find the strength that I have promised to you, you'll constantly be doing things and going places without a sense of peace and a calm spirit.
