God’s Strength Manifested in Our Weakness

from MY Devotional: Daily Biblical Encouragement & Prayer from Leading The Way · host Dr. Michael Youssef, Leading The Way

Have you ever looked at the rubble of your own life and wondered, How could God ever use me? In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds you that spiritual transformation doesn’t come from striving harder—it comes through God’s grace. While we often fixate on what we are right now, God sees what we can become in Christ. Dr. Youssef points to the apostle Paul, who endured trials, opposition, and a persistent “thorn” that kept him dependent on the Lord. Instead of hiding his weakness, Paul learned to delight in it—because it became the very place where Christ’s strength was most clearly displayed: “For when I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians 12:10). If you’re facing hardship, feeling stretched thin, or hanging on by a thread, this devotional will encourage you to: stop measuring your future by your present weakness, humble yourself before God and trust His purposes, and thank Him in advance for what He can accomplish through your struggle. Prayer: Lord, as I face difficulty in my life, give me the strength to continue by Your grace. I know You will accomplish Your will for my life even through my weaknesses as I trust in You.  I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. Today’s MY Devotional has been provided by Leading The Way.
