CHOOSING LESSER STRENGTH


CHOOSING LESSER STRENGTH
Wednesday, August 14, 2013

Psalm 20:7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

  In ordinary daily life or times of calamity, including implosion, every individual or nation has before them to trust God or own strength.

  The difference for Christian is if relying on own strength we as His John 1:12 child are worse off than non-believer relying on own strength; for isolationist pride doesn’t just leave us vulnerable to further stress, it engages God’s resistance and worsens our situation. (Jam.4:5-6)

  (Said trust is not simply emotional. It includes recognizing and accepting all warfare is ultimately spiritual and for our mind: Requiring prayerfully laboring at seeking applicable wisdom from His Word, the Bible; Jesus as exemplary example; and garnering prudence from other saints with mature knowledge and experience.)  EBB4
