YOU INCREASE IN STRENGTH AND CAPACITY

Isaiah 40:28-31 (CEV), Ephesians 3:16 Don’t you know? Haven’t you heard? The LORD is the eternal God, Creator of the earth. He never gets weary or tired; his wisdom cannot be measured. The LORD gives strength to those who are weary. Even young people get tired, then stumble and fall. But those who trust the LORD will find new strength. They will be strong like eagles soaring upward on wings; they will walk and run without getting tired. *That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

For the great increase that God is bringing into your life this year, you need increased strength and capacity and I see God’s mighty strength and divine capacity flowing into your life like never before. By the strength of God, you will be able to conceive and give birth to great things that were previously impossible for you. The Bible says, “Through faith also Sarah herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised,” (Heb.11:11). You shall be strong both on the inside and on the outside.

Strength is part of the inheritance that Christ has received for you by His death, burial and resurrection. The scriptures declare, “…., Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing,” (Rev.5:12). When He was on earth, Jesus also increased in strength. Luke 2:52 says, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.” You will also increase in wisdom, stature and in favour with God and man.

Be deliberate about doing things that will build and increase your strength this year. One of such things is knowledge, especially the knowledge of God. “A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength,” (Prov.24:5). They that know their God shall be strong and do exploits, (Dan.11:32). Fellowship with the Holy Spirit and grow in your consciousness of His presence, (Eph.5:18). Trust in God and continually stir up your joy, (Neh.8:10). Also rest well, eat healthy, exercise and take care of your body, (1Tim.4:8).

Action Point:
Declare that you increase in strength and capacity. Ask God for wisdom to be deliberate about things that will increase your strength and capacity.
