O God, You are more awesome than Your holy places. The God of Israel is He who gives strength and power to His people. Blessed be God! Psalm 68:35

Psalm 68:32-35 NKJV

 Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth; Oh, sing praises to the Lord, Selah  To Him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which were of old! Indeed, He sends out His voice, a mighty voice. Ascribe strength to God; His excellence is over Israel, And His strength is in the clouds. O God, You are more awesome than Your holy places. The God of Israel is He who gives strength and power to His people.

Blessed be God!

Our awesome God is the sole source of all the power in the universe. From His omnipotent energy, all creation derives its stamina. How does the sun pour out its light and heat? What’s the source of the eagle’s power of flight or the lion’s toughness? It all comes from His throne! God will give you the energy and strength you need to perform whatever He has planned for you today. He gives strength and power to His people. If He wants you to be an Olympic athlete, He’ll empower you to train and excel. If He wants you to flex your muscles with landscaping work, He’ll give you the necessary strength. If in His providence you’re bedfast and ailing, He will still impart every ounce of strength you need to do what He assigns and bear whatever He allows.

Power up in His Spirit. Ask Him for strength today. Turn Psalm 68:35 into a prayer: God of Israel, give your servant—me—strength and power today. Blessed be Your name! When I asked for strength, God gave me strength; when for help, He gave this also.
