Nothing Energizes Like Purpose!
Today, Pastor Michael is continuing our study on “overflow”. Today’s topic that ties into overflow is energy. Energy is a strange thing: when you’re young you have time and energy and no money. When you’re retired you have money (hopefully!) and time but no energy! And then there’s that “in-between” time, when you’re raising your family and you have no time, no energy and no money!
Where do we get energy? There are plenty of worldly ways: caffeine, exercise, good diet. But the spiritual side of energizing power is called “purpose”. When we have purpose it energizes us.
And the ultimate source of purpose? Almighty God! Trust in the Lord to give you purpose and He will give you meaning and direction.
(CSB Study Bible Notes) God not only had strength, but he distributed that strength to his people. The criterion for receiving God’s strength was not youth but trust. Those who trusted God would have an unlimited source of strength.
Verses can be found today in Isaiah 40: 30-31 and 1 Kings 19.
