Today on the first 15 podcast, we're going to explore and experience the way God gives us strength.

There is not much better than becoming aware of our weaknesses and being met by God's strength and grace in the midst of it.

God fills in all the poises we lack.

He wants to hold you up and strengthen you in your weakness.

We can release the need to appear strong

because we have a very strong God on our behalf.

May you experience the embrace of the Father today as you draw near. Welcome to the

First 15 podcast. The story of God's people is one of God's strength covering our weakness.

Our Heavenly Father takes our problems, sins, fears, and feebleness, and uses them as opportunities to demonstrate the overwhelming power of his love.

He takes those the world deems to be the weakest and uses them to accomplish incredible, powerful works.

Isaiah 40, 28 through 31 says,

Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the creator of the

ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary. His understanding is unsearchable.

He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might, he increases

strength. Even you shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted. But they

who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, and they shall mount up with wings like eagles.

They shall run and not be weary. They shall walk and not faint.

God knows our frame. He knows that our bodies have come from dust and will one day return to their

original form. He knows that without his help, we accomplish nothing. But Paul's declaration in Philippians 413 is just as true for you and me as it was for

him.

I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.

We can do all things through the anointing and power of our Heavenly Father.
