One little word

I've read it thousands of times. I've repeated it in my mind over and over. But finally, I heard it..."I can do all things THROUGH Christ who gives me strength." (Philippians 4:13) It's not just that He will help me do anything....but anything that passes through Christ.

In order for something to pass through Christ, it cannot be impure or contrary to God's will. Therefore, I can pray for strength to do anything that is according to His will, and He will help me do it. It's a promise because it will go through Christ...and His power has no limits. It's a standard for my prayers and my requests. One little word.
