A Prayer for Energy in Moments of Weak spot
By Keri Eichberger
“And my God will meet all of your wants based on the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 4:19
Generally, I panic underneath stress. Like a current incident when my mother, brother, husband (Mike), and I had been caravanning my dad from a hospital in Charleston, South Carolina, on to an inpatient rehabilitation facility 9 hours Northeast again house to Louisville, Kentucky. Dad was two weeks into a protracted highway to restoration after struggling a life-altering stroke. Just a few quick hours earlier than we reached our vacation spot, as Dad was seeming to wrestle a bit, Mother determined we must always cease, reposition him, and ensure all was good. My feelings and anxieties had already been compounding to a file excessive, so once we pulled into the closest fuel station, I shortly escaped solo straight to the lavatory. Praying for a big serving of God’s permeating peace so I may return to possibly assist and calm the state of affairs. I needed so badly for Dad to be higher. I needed assurance the whole lot was going to be okay.
However, generally, I panic underneath stress. And on this second I felt my weak spot swell and persist. An all too acquainted feeling. I prayed for God’s power. Determined for his robust arms and coronary heart. Nevertheless it appeared like solely weak spot remained. Do you are feeling weak, or bear in mind once you not too long ago did? And do you get anxious when chaotic moments are current? I’m fairly positive all of us do. Perhaps you’re weighed down by weariness proper now. Or really feel your combat and fortitude to endure your present circumstances are subsequent to nonexistent. The Bible tells us God’s energy and power are made good in weak spot. (2 Corinthians 12:9). I consider it. I’ve seen it, and noticed it that day.
On the fuel station in who-knows-where-Kentucky, I waited for God’s energy to indicate up inside my weakening soul. Nevertheless it didn’t fairly occur the best way I used to be on the lookout for. And I hope this may be an encouragement to you at this time, too. God confirmed up. Inside the very minute we pulled as much as a fuel pump, so did an ambulance on the one beside us. Our gracious God additionally gifted my husband the power, consciousness, and boldness to strategy the EMT, share our story, and request help. The EMS angels, as we now confer with them, reported good vitals and provided us the peace of mind and peace we would have liked to complete the remaining drive to get Dad to the native hospital safely. Thanks, Jesus.
If I hadn’t saved my eyes on the Lord, I’ll have missed how his divine power was delivered. How he confirmed up, answered my prayer, and supplied good power. Although not particularly by way of strengthening my very own will and approach, however by way of that of one other, to then bolster my soul and spirit together with his ample peace.
Associates, once we look to him in our weak spot, he definitely does present up. He could not essentially resolve your personal private weak spot by empowering you with power in the best way you might be hoping, although he may. However, many occasions it will likely be by way of assistance from one other of his kids (one in all their presents, their skills, their skills, or requires assist). And his blessing of power could not really feel extravagant or as supernatural as an ambulance approaching seemingly out of nowhere when wanted. In reality, generally, his blessings are small and refined. However nonetheless, simply as highly effective.
I pray at this time that you may be looking out for the way he’s providing you blessings of power. I pray that in no matter approach you are feeling weak spot proper now, you could be assured he hears each cry for assist. He hears each request for power. And he provides each want based on the riches of his glory. (Philippians 4:19)
Let’s pray:
Mighty God, Your power is ample for all that I want. And I want so, a lot. each weak spot I’m weathering now and all my moments to come back. Lord, I need desperately to be refreshed and renewed together with your power and energy in order that I can personally deal with the laborious issues in my life I’m strolling by way of. However generally that isn’t your plan. Generally, your power comes from others. Or in kinds I least anticipate. Like a shock encouragement, reward, stunning blessings, or scenes surrounding me. Assist me to maintain leaning on you in my weak moments. Assist me to maintain lifting my eyes to you again and again. And assist me to see you. God, you might be my power. You provide all that I want. You have got carried me right here, and I do know you’ll not cease. You’ll not fail. I reward you for that. In your Son’s robust identify, Amen.
