The Weak lead the Strong! Because strength is something to be desired, people do not want to admit weakness (whether physical, emotional, mental, or moral). Therefore; acknowledging God, a higher being, would lead to acknowledging weakness as a human being. So what’s the solution? There is no God! However Christianity says something totally different... The weak shall lead the strong!” We see this in all the characters of the bible.. Moses, Paul, David, Gideon, etc. So how did these people conquer and lead the mighty? They acknowledged their weaknesses. When God chose Moses to speak before Pharaoh, he said, “I am slow of speech” When God chose Jeremiah as a prophet, he said, “I am just a child The weak have been brought to a place in life, were they have had to rely on God’s strength and wisdom- not their own strength or intelligence. Isaiah40:29-31 He gives power to the faint (weak), and to them that have no might, he increases strength.… But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. When God told Paul, “My strength (power) is made perfect in weakness,” the apostle proclaimed, “Most gladly then I will rather boast about my weaknesses, for when I am weak, I am strong. So its evident that HE does use the weak... But why?? Because the weak made strong in Christ will give HIM glory- not themselves. God told Gideon to get his army down to only 300 men so all would know it was the Lord that gave them victory! Had Gideon attacked with thousands of men, others would have just given him credit for having the stronger army. 1cor1 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things - and the things that are not - to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God- that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. God alone is all-powerful. He has all the strength we need. He alone deserves ALL the glory. That is why God has ordained that “THE WEAK SHALL LEAD THE STRONG.” Prayer- Thank you Almighty God for the trials you allowed to humble me.. they showed me how strong I AM NOT! Thank you for the refining fire that removed anxiety, fear, pride, unforgiveness, shame, guilt and so much more.. you alone make me Right!!! you alone make me Holy!!! Please forgive me for the years I spent depending on my own strength, thinking I didnt need you in every area of my life. Continue to protect and provide for me my King. I trust you with all i am. ♡ In Jesus Name, Amen!
