Are you really strong?

Proverbs 24.10
If you faint in the day of adversity, Your strength is small.

The strength of a person can only be known when he is in the midst of adversity, challenges and troubles. This verse tells us any person who faints or gives up during challenges is one whose strength is small.

Everyone is strong when there are no challenges, but when challenges show up, strength is revealed. Adversity reveals the strong ones. So don't be afraid of challenges, it's an opportunity for you to reveal the strength and the resurrection power of God. Why do people give up in the midst of adversity? I believe it's because of the lack of feeding on and excercising the word. The more you feed on and exercise the word, the stronger you become. The stronger you are, the more you can endure. Strength begins with the word of God.

Everyone in the Bible faced adversity, some fierce but all did. Because they were consistently feeding on and excercising the word, they could face challenges and pressures and come out victoriously. These were simple people but faithful, consistent feeders and excercisers of the word. Friend, adversity is inevitable but falling down or standing up is a choice. The word will help you overcome and conquer the challenges and make you an example to the nations of the world. The word is your strength and therefore be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.
