Receiving Angelic Strength
Luke 22:41-43: And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.Imagine how quiet it was in heaven when Jesus prayed that night. The pain ahead was too much, the humiliation, the mockery, the nail, the crown of thorn. Just name it! To accomplish and finish the assignment, an angel came from heaven to strengthen him. Can you finish the assignment committed into your hands in your strength? Absolutely not. Can you survive the pain, mockery, humiliation, accusation, lies, and death required to fulfill the divine assignment ahead of you? Absolutely not! After the visitation of the angel from heaven, the Lord was strengthened to pray so much so that in agony, he could even pray earnestly. Wao!! Naturally, we get discouraged and loose the strength to pray when we are in pain or agony. But by reason of the strength imparted by the angel of the Lord, Jesus received enlarged capacity to pray even much more. Angelic strength impacted into you will sustain your prayer life and keep you going when others quit. Don't stop don't quit, receive strength from heaven to advance, pray and go forward in all areas against all odds. God bless you as you pray this in and share with others.With love from Rotterdam
