Rising Strong in September – God Will Carry You Through


Life has a way of testing us. August may have left many of us weary, burdened, or even broken. Some have said goodbye to loved ones, some have faced painful losses, and others have struggled with challenges that seemed too heavy to bear. But here is the good news: God never leaves us where we are. He is the God who renews, restores, and gives strength to the weary.

The Word of God in Isaiah 40:29-31 says:

> "He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."



This is not just a verse—it is a promise. As we cross over into September, we must hold on to this truth: God’s strength is greater than our weakness.

God’s Strength in Our Weakness

2 Corinthians 12:9-10: Paul reminds us, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Our weakest moments are the very places where God’s power shines brightest.

Psalm 34:18: "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." You are never abandoned in your pain—God is closest when you feel farthest.

Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." The challenges ahead are not stronger than the Christ within you.


Examples of Renewed Strength

The woman with the issue of blood pressed through the crowd, touched Jesus, and immediately received healing (Luke 8:43-48). Your faith can still connect you to the power of God today.

Samson prayed, "Sovereign Lord, strengthen me just once more" (Judges 16:28). God answered, showing that it is never too late for Him to restore your strength.

Jesus Himself said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28). The invitation is still open today.


A New Month, A New Beginning

September is not just another month—it is a fresh opportunity to rise again. God’s mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23). Let go of the pain of yesterday and embrace the promise of tomorrow.

You may have fallen in August, but in September you will rise.

You Do Not Have to End Your Life — Jesus Is the Answer

Image
Inspired by Acts 16:28 He knew his life was over. The prison doors had flung wide open, and every prisoner was suddenly free. No warning. No human explanation. Just freedom — uncontainable, undeniable, impossible. The jailer knew what this meant: execution. He would be held responsible. The king would demand his head. He had no excuse, no backup plan, no second chance. So, in his desperation, he reached for his sword to end his own life. A man who had been working hard to feed his family… A man doing his duty… A man trying to survive… Now stood on the edge of a final, permanent decision. But then — a voice pierced through the darkness: > “Do not harm yourself! We are all here!” — Acts 16:28 --- 💔 Does this sound familiar? How many people today feel exactly like that jailer? Caught in a situation with no way out... Facing failure, shame, or judgment… Feeling like death is the only escape... And so, some decide to end it all. Maybe you're one of them. Maybe you’ve thought: “No on...

SHOUT ALL THE MORE — When Prayer Feels Pointless

Image
  “Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, ‘Son of David, have mercy on me!’” — Mark 10:48 Have you ever felt like giving up on prayer? Like your cries to God are falling on deaf ears? That maybe God isn’t listening, or worse—maybe He doesn’t care? That’s exactly what Bartimaeus could have felt in Mark 10. He was blind, desperate, and sitting by the roadside when he heard Jesus was passing by. This was his chance. So he cried out, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” But instead of support, he was met with rebuke. The crowd told him to be quiet, to stay in his place, to stop disturbing the Master. But Bartimaeus refused to be silenced. He shouted even louder. And that, right there, is the key: when life tells you to give up, when the devil whispers that your prayers are useless—shout all the more. Many are quietly suffering because they’ve allowed discouragement to silence their faith. But not Bartimaeus. He kept his eyes on Jesus (even with...
