The Lord Is Our Strength
Have you never heard?
Have you never understood?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of all the earth.
He never grows weak or weary.
No one can measure the depths of his understanding.
He gives power to the weak
and strength to the powerless.
Even youths will become weak and tired,
and young men will fall in exhaustion.
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint. —Isaiah 40:28-31
I am John, a follower together with all of you. We suffer because Jesus is our king, but he gives us the strength to endure. I was sent to Patmos Island because I had preached God’s message and had told about Jesus. —Revelation 1:9
…for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it.
I know how to be humbled, and I know also how to abound.
In everything and in all things I have learned the secret of both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need. I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. —Philippians 4:11-13
