The strength which led her to overcome the trauma she endured as a child The abuse she experienced as a young adult The many challenges she faces as an adult The frustrations that bonded her to everything that was against her

Strength to walk through the fires of her life

Strength to push and fulfill the purposes assigned to her Strength to release the burdens sent to weigh her down from becoming the woman she is meant to be on earth.

When you ask her, what is the source of her strength She states that my strength is not my own strength My strength does not come from me My strength is a gift wrapped in many promises My strength is required for this journey of life The source of my strength comes from a Heavenly Father, an Honorable Savior, a Holy Spirit, who is God over my life

“Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you I have called you by name; you are mine When you go through deep waters, I will be with you When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior ” Isaiah 43:1-3 (NLT)

“Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; He will neither fail you nor abandon you. ” Deuteronomy 31:6 (NLT)

“Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord, your God is with you wherever you go ” Joshua 1:9 (NLT)

These promises remind us not to be afraid We will journey through some terrifying paths in life But with God, we are given the strength to conquer this journey I will leave you with Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3 and know that you belong to God Now, you be blessed and walk in your authority

Repent your sins to the Heavenly Father

Confess Jesus Christ as your Lord & Savior

The source of her strength is not just for her, but for every willing person that will allow God to be the ultimate source for their life If you wish to have this source of strength in your life or if you need to be reminded of the source of your strength. Then follow these three steps: 1 2 3

Accept the Holy Spirit into your life

Now, hold onto these promises of strength and know the victory of life is already yours in Jesus Christ:

“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God I will strengthen you and help you I will hold you up with my victorious right hand ” Isaiah 41:10 (NLT)

“For this reason, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever Amen ” (NKJV)
