Wednesday, May 20

For all things I have the strength through the one who gives me power.—Phil. 4:13.

 

We will be able to endure any trial, great or small, if we remember that Jehovah is alive and that he is there to sustain us. After all, he is the Almighty, and he can give us the power to endure. We have every reason, therefore, to face our trials with confidence. Our experiencing Jehovah’s support during smaller trials convinces us that he will also help us during greater trials. Consider two personal experiences that increased King David’s confidence in Jehovah. When David was a young shepherd, a bear and a lion each carried off one of his father’s sheep. On both occasions, David courageously chased after the animals and saved the sheep. Yet, he did not claim the victory for himself. He knew that Jehovah was behind it. (1 Sam. 17:34-37) By meditating on those experiences, David gained confidence that the living God would strengthen him in the future. w24.06 21 ¶5-6

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.
