Renewed Strength

Anchor scripture: Isaiah 40:31

Supporting verse: Genesis 26:14-22

As we step into the second half of the year, it’s time to pause and reflect — to ask what God has in store for us and what our winning strategy should be for the months ahead. The key? Put your trust in God and build stamina in every area of your life.

Strategies to adopt 

1. Strengthen Your Relationship with God

The more we turn to God, the more capacity we have to endure and excel in other areas. When we remember past victories, they serve as proof that God will come through again.

• Joy is a winning force — keep drawing your faith and energy from God.
• Challenges may come to distract, but keep moving forward. Learn from each experience and step into the next season stronger.
• Never give up — your endurance is being built for greater victories ahead.

2. Walk with the Holy Spirit

We are ambassadors of God on earth — representatives of Heaven. That means:

• Always remember who God is and that we have the Holy Spirit with us in good times and in bad.
• Stay close to Him — His guidance is your greatest asset.
• Don’t forget: you are a king. You have authority. Speak what you want to see.

3. Keep Your Eyes on the Ball

There is always a plan in God, and your assignment is part of that plan.

• Keep your calling and purpose front and center — that’s where your protection lies.
• Ask yourself often: What is important to God right now? What is He asking me to do?
• Stay connected to the One you represent — your safety and clarity come from Him.

4. Hearing God in This Season

If you want to know what God is saying now:

• Spend time with God in prayer.
• Spend time in His Word.
• Spend time with other believers.

As you do these, things will begin to align. Pieces will connect. His voice will become clearer, and you’ll discern His timing. For natural decisions, His leading is often marked by peace and conviction in your spirit.

5. Navigating Tough Seasons

Even when you’re walking in obedience, challenges can come. When they do:

• Return to God and the word He gave you.
• He may give a fresh word or simply strengthen you to stand.
• Philippians 4:6-7 (Amplified) reminds us that an unusual burden can often be God drawing us closer.
• Romans 4:3 (Message) and Proverbs 16:13 point us back to trusting His process.

Final Word
In this season, our focus must remain on God. Approach the year with patience, anticipation, and the joy of the Lord as your strength. Whatever comes, keep your eyes fixed on Him — your victory is certain when your hope is in the Lord.
