Isaiah 40:28 to 29 (NIV) ~ The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth, He will not grow weary and His understanding no-one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.

This verse of Scripture simply drips with the dew of heaven, watering and nourishing every part of your life. From the first six words, God sets out His stall, as it were, and lays it before a watching world; His magnificent omnipotence, showing He is from everlasting to everlasting eternally true to all of His promises. He does not change like shifting shadows, as the Bible says in James 1:17 (NIV), “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly light, who does not change like shifting shadows.” This illustration is powerfully explained by a sundial, for when the sun is at high noon in the sky it is at the peak of its power. God is always at the peak of His power and does not change like shifting shadows on a sundial. He will not grow weary, but He will always and forever be the everlasting, all-powerful, Mighty God.

How comforting is this beautiful gem, this precious jewel within our text for today, “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.” Twice, within this verse of Scripture, you have two Divine promises from God: He gives you strength and increases your power when you are weak. Notice if you will, how God wants you to be strong, to be strong in health, strong in your spirit and soul, and strong in the Lord and power of His might. Whatever need you may have in your life, God wants to show himself strong on your behalf, for He is your ELOHIM ADONAI your everlasting God, your JEHOVAH JIREH.

My friend, what an awesome promise of God; what comfort, what strength, what an encouraging and uplifting word for you today from God in our text from in Isaiah 40:28 to 29 (NIV), “The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth, He will not grow weary and His understanding no-one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.”

God bless you my friend, Matthew
