The Joy of the Lord is our strength.

Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our LORD: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.

Your people celebrated Father, when they heard your Word. At first, they wept but encouraged by Nehemiah they celebrated in the strength of the hearing and understanding of your Word. I pray that Michelle hear your Word regularly and be strengthened by it. I pray that the joy of hearing from you give strength to her heart. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen

Strengthened by His might, patient with joy.

Colossians 1: 11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness.

Dear Father, Your glorious power gives us strength and in that strength, we can have patience with joy. Sometimes Father, days are long, sometimes trials are long and do not seem to have an end. Remind Michelle, remind all of us who call on the name of Jesus that the ability to hold on and hold out comes from you and that we can endure, not with a weary spirit but with joy knowing that you never leave or forsake us, and that you will carry us through. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen

He is our refuge

Deuteronomy 33: 27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms…

Holy Father you are our God. You have been and are always with us, in the past, the present, and the future. There is nothing too hard for you to protect us from, there is never a time that you remove your shelter from us. Thank you for the comfort of your presence. Thank you for the strength of your everlasting arms. Keep Michelle reminded that there is peace and safety to be found when we run to you. Protect her and her family. In the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

God gives power to the faint

Isaiah 40:29 He gives power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increases strength.

Thank you Father that you are so willing to come to our aid. We grow tired and weary of the constant struggles of this life. Some days they seem to have no end. But there is no end to your power and the strength you are willing to give us. Shower that strength and power upon Michelle and her family. Help them to rest in you when there is no rest to be found . Strengthen them from the inside out that they may be able to withstand the fiery darts of the wicked. You are our God and beside you there is no other. In the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen
