When we feel weak at the knees, perhaps we could spend a week on those knees, in prayer. To be in prayer before our heavenly Father, seeking Him, to know Him, and for spiritual strength.
We are named after our Father in heaven. He named us. He cared enough for that. He's got plenty of riches too - the riches of His glory. With these He can and will strengthen us as we bow our knees to Him.
Jesus' Spirit courses through our spiritual veins in our inner being. This Spirit also strengthens us, helping us to allow Christ to dwell in our hearts through faith.
This is how we become 'strengthened'. A tree sapling is very tender. It is often protected and strengthen by posts or little fences to protect it, giving it time to grow stronger and take root more firmly.
This is exactly like how God strengthens His children whom He has named. With His Spirit, with His word as bulwarks around our hearts even while we are on our knees in communion with Him.
So that ... we become rooted and grounded in love. On top of all this, so that we ...
" ... may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ ... that you (we) may be filled with all the fullness of God" (Ephesians 3:19 ESV).
How precious and strengthening is that!
Now unto You O Father God, we bend our knees and lift our hearts, minds, souls and spirits up to You to be strengthened with Your might in our inner beings. In Jesus' name we await Your strengthening. Amen.
