Oswald Chambers: Joy - Strength In The Lordনমুনা

The realization that my strength is always a hindrance to God’s supply of life is a great eye-opener. A man who has genius is apt to rely on his genius rather than on God. A man who has money is apt to rely on money instead of God. So many of us trust in what we have got in the way of possessions instead of entirely in God.
All these sources of strength are sources of double weakness. But when we realize that our true life is “hid with Christ in God,” that we are “complete in Him,” in whom “dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily,” then His strength is radiantly manifested in our mortal flesh. God grant that His Spirit may bring everyone of us to the place where the secret is learned and enjoyed that His strength is made perfect in our weakness.
Reflection Questions: How does my strength hinder God? How do my resources hinder God? What secret is being kept from me because I refuse to rely on God?
