I will courageously work with the strengths God provides by the Holy Spirit
There are two points that are meant to be remembered in this line. The first is that God is the one that has gives each one of us our strengths and talents, they are meant to be discovered and grown as they are used for His purpose. Second, is to always remember that it is the Holy Spirit that must lead us, thus it is important that we bring all things before God in prayer.
“As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies, in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.”
Find and Use your Strengths
Romans 12:6-8, "Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness"
1 Corinthians 12:12-27, "For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body - Jews or Greeks, slaves or free - and all were made to drink of one Spirit. For the body does not consist of one member but of many. If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. If all were a single member, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts, yet one body. The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it."
“The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much”
Prayer and the Holy Spirit
Always remember that all true strength come from the Lord and it is the Holy Spirit that must lead us, thus it is important that we strive to be fervent in prayer in all things. Be sure to strengthen your own personal prayer lives as well as fostering environments of corporate prayer. Gather together as often as you can to pray for: each other, the growth of God's Kingdom, and for whatever else we feel the Holy Spirit inspires.
