How should we approach each day when our strength is almost gone?

OThis is the day the Lord has made and we are to rejoice and be glad in it. Ps 118:24

Every day has its own battles, some harder to face than others, yet we are told that Lord will never leave us or forsake us, the battle is not ours. Every step we take should be lit with God's Word. Every struggle in the confidence that God is with us, for if God is with us who can be against us. God Bless
 
Exodus 15:2 KJV
[2] The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.


2 Corinthians 12:9 KJV
[9] And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
 
At times it can seem that the time in 'valley' seems longer than before and yet I draw confidence to continue because of the story of Meshach, Shadrach and Abendigo though they were thrown into a fiery pit because of their belief they were not alone, the Lord was with them, neither their bodies nor their clothing was destroyed. The valley doesn't seem so overwhelming when you have a friend closer than a brother with you. God Bless

I've been in some horrible situations. I stayed up at night reading the Psalms because I knew the Psalmist had his struggles.

BTW, welcome to this site. :) I look forward to your posts.

Philippians 4: 6-7, NASB
6Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

(I struggle with this constantly!)

If we are truly honest we all do, we are only weak vessels, it is only through the Holy Spirit that we are strong. If a building has strong foundations it will withstand the strongest storm. God Bless
 
You must allow yourself to be weak. You must let go of your own strength and trust in the Lord. Your own strength, no matter how strong, will ultimately fail. Only by trusting in the Lord can you truly overcome the obstacles before you.

"Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." (Ephesians 6:11-12 Authorized KJV)

A great song that goes with this topic:
The Crabb Family - "He'll Make A Way"

Martha Borg also does a great version of the song with the Larson siblings. It's on youtube.

Certainly there is only one way through the dark valleys and the presence of the Lord brings light in the darkness. The song you mentioned is very good, I have a copy by Don Moen which is also very good. In many of the passages of scripture we find God instructing His chosen people in the way. I have found a great peace in knowing that there is only one way, truth and life. By His leading the path is clear and a number of our answers are found. God Bless

I have no idea what "snook" means, but it sounds like 30 days in jail and 6 months of supervised probation.

Oh, no wonder the confusion, here in the U.S. we would have said 'snuck' instead of 'sneaked'. lol

These posts alone weary me. This reminds me of a buddy from London. I tried to correct something he said and he told me the English way is the correct way of saying it. What? 🤔 That confused me even more, kind of like the title of this thread.

L😎L!
