In Times of Stress

Stress is the difference between what we need to do, and what we can do. 

God promises that if we stay in step with Him that He will give us strength (Is. 40:31). 

Why do we need to closely follow God to receive His strength? 

Why would God give you more strength to serve the devil? 

(Read I Cor. 1:25, Ps. 62:1, Prov. 8:34, Ps. 104:27, Prov. 27:18). 

You need to...

Long, 

listen, 

look, 

and live for the Lord. 

The purpose of renewed strength is to mount up with wings of eagles. 

The two wings are faith and obedience. 

God gives the power to rise in times of adversity and master the storms of life. The eagle likes to go it alone. 

God gives the power to run in times of opportunity. 

The power of resolve to walk in times of necessary. 

Can you think of anything that's too big for God?
