RICK WARREN DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 24TH APRIL 2024
When you believe in Jesus, you get God’s strength for daily living.
I used to think this wasn’t a big deal. But I’ve realized that for most people, the number one problem in life isn’t worry or fear or guilt or bitterness. Their number one problem is weariness.
People tell me all the time, “I’m just so tired all the time. I can’t get it all done. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired.”
The reason why you’re tired all the time is you have a power shortage. And the reason you have a power shortage is because you’re not plugged in to God’s power. You’re trying to live your life on your power alone.
There’s no way you can fulfill your purpose in life without being plugged in to God’s power. An unplugged toaster is worthless. An unplugged blender is worthless. A vacuum cleaner has no purpose if it’s not plugged in to the power source.
Isaiah 40:29 says, “[God] gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak” (NIV).
You need God’s power in more ways than you realize. Paul says it like this: “I have the strength to face all conditions by the power that Christ gives me” (Philippians 4:13 GNT).
This is not a positive mental attitude. This is not self-help psychology. This is not pull-yourself-up-by-your-own-bootstraps thinking. No—this is supernatural power!
What are the “all conditions”? With God’s help, you have the power to handle loneliness when you’re lonely. The power to handle stress when you’re under pressure. The power to handle guilt and fear and boredom and bitterness and rejection. The power to handle financial disaster. The power to handle health crises. The power to handle a relational predicament.
Where does that power come from? It comes from God in you—the Holy Spirit. You receive that power when you believe in Jesus Christ to save you. And it’s available to you every moment of every day, no matter what you’re facing.
