He Strengthens Me

 Part of the THANKFUL HEART SERIES



HE STRENGTHENS ME

1 Timothy 1:12

"I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, that He considered me faithful and appointed me to service."

When we answer the call from God, it is not under our own strength that we serve Him, but through the strength of Christ: the power of the Holy Spirit.

It is our faith in Christ Jesus which saves us. But is only through this faith in Christ that we can receive God's Holy Spirit, who will strengthen us for the works which God has prepared for us to do. We cannot, nor should we, expect to do what God has called us to do  under our own power and strength, which are both weak and will fail.
