Daily Devotions: When Weak, We Are Strong - September 9, 2025

Scripture Reading: 2 Corinthians 12:5, 9–10 (NLT) “That experience is worth boasting about, but I’m not going to do it. I will boast only about my weaknesses… Each time he said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.’ So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” The Apostle Paul reminds us that true strength in the Christian life does not come from our abilities, popularity, or achievements—it comes from God’s grace. Paul faced hardships, insults, persecution, and constant opposition, yet he learned to rejoice in weakness because that’s where God’s power shines the brightest. Instead of relying on himself, Paul relied completely on God’s grace. This is a lesson for us today. When life feels overwhelming, when insults or troubles come our way, we don’t have to be ashamed or defeated. We can say, “Lord, I rely on Your grace. I boast in my weakness so that Your strength may be seen in me.” In every trial, His grace is sufficient, and His power will carry us through.
