My grace is enough; its all you need. My strength comes into its own in your weakness.
2 Corinthians 12:9 (MSG)
My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.
2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)
I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christs power may rest on me. That is why, for Christs sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in
- difficulties. For when I am weak,
then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 (NIV)
We felt like wed been sent to death row; that it was all over for
- us. As it turned out, it was the
best thing that could have
- happened. Instead of trusting in
- ur own strength or wits to get
- ut of it, we were forced to trust
God totally
2 Corinthians 1:10-11(MSG)
- 1. The good-will of
God towards us
- 2. The good work of
God in us
(Matthew Henry commentary)
For me the greatest value in my lack of control was the intimate and ultimate awareness that I could not manage God. God refused to jump when I said, Jump! Neither by theological acumen nor by religious technique could I conquer God. God was, in fact, to conquer me.
(Richard Foster, Prayer)
Its not about you.
Rick Warren (Purpose Driven Life)
...For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:10 (NIV)
He is our refuge and
strength, a very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1) Nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Jesus Christ our
- Lord. (Rom 8:38-39)
God gives power to the
faint and increases the strength of the weak.(Isa 40:29)
Hes got you written on
the palm of his hand.(Isa 49:16)

I pray that out of his glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.
Ephesians 3:16-19
And this is my prayer, that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day
- f Christ, filled with the fruit of
righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:9-11

... growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father...
