Dependence

Read 2 John, 3 John, Jude

Jude 1:9 "Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee."

We talk about willpower and motivation—those things that will keep us on our dieting and exercising track when we are getting discouraged. We use lots of tricks to keep ourselves going, even when we’re tempted to give up.

But sometimes no matter what we try, we reach a point where we can’t go on. Dieting and exercising just don’t seem to be worth the effort.

That’s when we need a new source of strength—we need to depend on the Lord to help us. He is infinite strength and we can tap into Him to get back on our diet and exercise regimen.
