Renew your Spiritual Vitality


Hebrews 12:12-13
‘’Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down and the feeble knees,
And make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed’’
Sometimes we become spiritually tired and spiritually ‘sick’. It is a very risky thing for the spirit to lose its strength or in other words ‘to quench the spirit’. The spirit of the living God should always be vital and burning within us. For this, our hands should always be lifted towards Him and always praising Him in everything we do. God always wants us to be strengthened by His spirit. Thus firstly when His spirit dwells in us, we become strong and all the hand as which look down, will change its direction and look up to praise Him. Secondly the feeble knees that is, the loose and easily breakable or fragile things in our lives will be changed into better and stronger things. Thirdly He will go before us and make our paths straight like the psalmist says in psalm 17:5, ‘’Uphold my steps in your paths that my footsteps may not slip’’. He says that he wants God’s path to be in his life (since the path of God is always straight). If we ask God’s path and ways to be done in our lives we won’t slip and fall down. Fourthly, sometimes  our lives become lame or dead, it is because we do not look forward to be healed or in other words, we do not look forward become spiritually healed. But God’s plan and will is to give life to the dead things in our lives and not get cut off or dislocated. Thus God wants to give for us life in abundance! God bless! Amen!
