Be Strong And Of A Good CourageUddrag

Be Strong. “Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.” Deuteronomy‬ ‭31:6‬ ‭KJV‬‬ According to Strong’s Concordance, the Hebrew word for “Strong” is, ‘ chazaq ’ (H2388) which means, “To strengthen, prevail, harden, be strong, become strong, be courageous, be firm, grow firm, or to be resolute.” Stay rooted in His Word. Stay grounded in His principles and precepts. Stay connected to Him. Choose to be strong in the Lord. Strength comes when you are connected. Endurance comes when you are connected. Strength isn’t developed overnight. Strength training is a compilation of daily decisions to follow and pursue God with all of your heart. Choose to follow God with all of your might.
