The young lions do lack and suffer hunger, but those who trusts in the Lord shall lack no good thing – Psalm 34:10
Are you law-minded or grace-minded? The law came through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ (John 1:17). The law comes from the Old Covenant, but grace comes from the New Covenant. The law is all about what we can do but grace is all about what Jesus has done. The Psalmist speaks of the limitations of our own efforts when he says that young lions do lack and suffer hunger. King Solomon also warns us that the race is not won by the swift nor the battle by the strong. Thus, while it is good to have natural abilities, gifts, talents, and skills such as strength and speed (like young lions), these do not guarantee success. What does guarantee success every time is God’s help! When we combine His super abilities with our natural abilities is when we operate in the supernatural. The beauty is that we don’t have to have a lot of ability to operate in the supernatural. The beauty is that the supernatural will always defeat the natural. So, let others rely on their strength while you trust in the strength of the Lord. They will be shocked that you lack no good thing while they continue to struggle This shock you will get the chance to tell them about our mighty God
No matter how good I am, I am best with God’s strength
I don’t know why we’ve been conditioned to think we have to do it all in our own strength. Perhaps a combination of messaging in this world and pride? It gets pretty tiring quickly.
The answer is simple- Humbly trust in God. As someone once said- Snuggle, don’t struggle.
