"As your days--so shall your strength be!")
Dear Sandra!!
Thank you for sharing that awesome reminder of how we are to face each day, and every situation. It was a major shot in the arm for this weary pilgrim, and I know you touched so many other hearts!!
What an incredible Lord we serve, as He provides all the strength to do so!!Thanks again, and bless you!

"As your days--so shall your strength be!"
Dear John and Doves,
Every day draws us closer to seeing Jesus, and that is our reason for living, "Christ who is our LIFE", as the
Apostle Paul declared.
Some, here, have shared how they have been attacked during the night by demon spirits.
I, too, have felt demon attacks at night where a terror gripped me and I couldn't speak and
labored to call on the Name of Jesus. The demon would NOT let me utter that Blessed Name! But
finally, and with persistence, Jesus came to my rescue and made the demon leave and I was able
to Praise the Lord. The Lord was showing me that I am NOT to fear ANYTHING, even though I
may be terrified for the moment, the Word of the Lord is "settled" in my "New Man" in my heart,
and God, thru Christ Jesus is fighting for me and has already secured MY VICTORY!
I don't know what lies ahead of us. We may be Raptured "Today", but whatever, our God is with
us and NO EVIL shall EVER pervail over us, for WHAT or WHO can EVER separate us from the Love of
God which is IN Christ Jesus our dear Lord!
Maranatha! May we be faithful to His Calling until the VERY END!

"As your days--so shall your strength be!" Deuteronomy 33:25
Here is a precious promise for a trying day! It belongs to every Christian who is traveling to the Celestial City. It provides for every part of life's journey; for every day--as each day may require.
It is especially suited to the dark days, the wintry days, and the trying days--when all our earthly props fail us; the days when our fellow man cannot help us.
Fellow pilgrim! Are you dispirited, depressed, and cast down? Are you looking back upon the past with sorrow--and forward into the future with fear? Cheer up! The Lord will not lay on you more than He will enable you to bear--nor will He allow any other to do so.
However weak you may feel in yourself,
however rough the road you may need to travel,
however heavy the burden you may have to carry--
God will supply you with sufficient strength for the day!
He has never allowed you to be crushed yet, though you may have staggered under some heavy burdens. He who has helped you in the past--is still your helper today. He will also help you in all the future. "As your days"--be they as troublesome as they may--"so shall your strength be."
Whether your day brings life or death, joy or trial--it does not matter. God will send you exactly what you need to pass through it! Do not look at your trials, do not dwell on your inability--but lay hold on the promises of God and seek His grace to exercise faith in Him.
Then let Satan suggest what he pleases, or the flesh object as it may--you will be able to say, "I will not fear; for as my day--so shall my strength be. He who has promised--will also fulfill His promise."
Blessed Lord, I praise You for this precious promise! Help, oh, help me to trust in it; and day by day as duty or trials may require--enable me to look to You and expect sufficient strength from You!
"On the day I called--You answered me; You increased strength within me!" Psalm 138:3
