He said to me " My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness" (2 Corinthians 12:9)
We've been taught that when we ask God for something through prayer, His answers may be yes, no or wait. we're told that even no is an answer, though obviously not the one we may want. It certainly wasn't the answer Paul wanted when he begged God three times to remove his "thorn in the flesh" (2 Corinthians 12:7-8). Whatever Paul's thorn was, it weakened him. Because he wanted to be strong in his ministry, Paul asked God for deliverance. Although God didn't grant his request, He answered his prayer! He said to Paul, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness" (v.9). The all-sufficient strength of Christ became Paul's new boast.
Author J. Oswald Sanders summarized Paul's attitude about his thorn like this: " At first he viewed it as a limiting handicap, but later he came to regard it as a heavenly advantage." Paul could therefore testify, " I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses....For when I am weak, then I am strong" (v.10).
Have you prayed for deliverance from something that weakens you, but deliverance hasn't come? Remember, God's grace is sufficient for you. He can transform your limitation into your "heavenly advantage."
There's advantage in our weakness, There is blessing in our pain; It is when we're feeling helpless that God's grace and strength sustain...
Our weakness is a blessing when we learn on God's strength...
