WORD DEFINIATION-WD

Our WD for this month is STRENGTH
According to dictionary.reference.com Strength can be defined as “the inherent capacity to manifest energy, to endure and to resist”.
"My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever" (Psalms 73:26). Strength has two sides which are strength in the flesh and strength in the Spirit. You determine where your strength is anchored on is it in Christ or your flesh (which controlled by the devil).
