Today’s Scripture
The extraordinary level of the revelations I’ve received is no reason for anyone to exalt me. For this is why a thorn in my flesh was given to me, the Adversary’s messenger sent to harass me, keeping me from becoming arrogant. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to relieve me of this. But he answered me, “My grace is always more than enough for you, and my power finds its full expression through your weakness.” So I will celebrate my weaknesses, for when I’m weak I sense more deeply the mighty power of Christ living in me. So I’m not defeated by my weakness, but delighted! For when I feel my weakness and endure mistreatment—when I’m surrounded with troubles on every side and face persecution because of my love for Christ—I am made yet stronger. For my weakness becomes a portal to God’s power.
2 Corinthians 12:7-10
Today’s Thought
God’s power finds its true expression in our weaknesses. So, remember, greatness is never discovered because of the absence of weaknesses but in your willingness to overcome them.
Today’s Confession
Thank you, Jesus, that I have your power to overcome all weakness in my life. Wherever I am weak, you become strong. Help me to overcome those areas with your might and power and walk in victory like never before!
