"My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; He is mine forever." Psalm 73:26 NLT
Many times we feel that we have failed in some area or another. Our mind can pour depression and guilt upon us until we become a wreck. However, we will not always be in the winning blocks but, we are still winners because, Jesus is with us. He is with us forever.
Have you felt that tinge of failure just lately, that feeling that you could have succeeded if you had tried harder? Well, there may be a touch of truth to this, only you know that. However, usually it is a lie that the devil uses against us to make us feel awful and that we have let God and people down. If you genuinely know in your heart that you have done all that you could, then don't even entertain thoughts such as these. They are designed to disable you.
We only have a level of strength because we are human. Super strength belongs to Jesus, He can be likened to a more powerful Superman. This is why we cling to Him, need Him and walk with Him daily. When we get into difficulty, as we call on Him, He uses His staff to guide us and show us the way. If we fall into a ditch, He uses the staff to hook us out and put us on the road again. If anyone attacks us or tries to do us harm, as we call on Him, He uses His rod to protect us and beat off the enemies. 'Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me' Psalm 23:4 NLT.
Notice David's words, 'I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff they comfort me.' These are faith words and when we confess these, we receive. We must get into this habit of speaking faith-filled language, not words of doubt.
Some of you reading this may have health issues and you may wonder why you have not been healed even though you have prayed. It's not over until it's over. Don't give up. There's no answer that anyone can give you for this, except to keep on believing. Don't listen to doubt; don't confess doubt. It is not a failure, just keep on trusting Jesus. He always wins in the end!
