There are ‘Firm and Strong’ quotes that will keep us dancing to the rhythm of the rain. When the strong winds of life unearth us, these healing words will help us to get back together again. They’ll ignite our candles with hope to keep our lights awake. We can use them to protect us from the desire to give in – and knock out.
I personally have used quotes to help me cope in trying times. I recall one from Bob Marley that says “You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option you have.” Consider the breath of life that will engulf us as we truly ponder on these power packed words.
The truth is that words have the power to change us in the twinkling of eye.
God Will Keep Us Firm And Strong
It is God Who keeps us Firm and Strong. We can try all we want, yet our efforts will fail us if we do not rely on Him. Maybe you have been trying to do it on your own, and you keep failing all the time. Don’t Give up. You just have to learn and apply the true strength of God. The Bible says:
Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
Zechariah 4:6
It can be very tiring going around the same mountain all the time. Yet we have hope in Christ to help us to become and remain ‘Firm and Strong.’ Do not settle for weakness, resort to the strength of God that sustains you.
This scripture found in Zachariah 4:6 is a testament of the great help and anchor we can find in the Most High God. The Bible says even the young men will faint and go weary, yet those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength. As a result, we must wait on God to renew and transform us.
