Psalm 73:26 (NKJV) 26 My flesh and my heart fail; But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.<\/p>\n

As humans, we are inherently weak and feeble.<\/p>\n

Our flesh is fickle and prone to failure. On our own, we can do nothing.<\/p>\n

This is not an opinion. It is a fact that the Bible reiterates many times.<\/p>\n

The Apostle Paul, despite all that he accomplished. spoke of being disappointed in himself when his flesh was determined to do one thing, but his spirit wanted to do the right<\/i> thing.<\/p>\n

Romans 7:15 (LSB) 15 For what I am working out, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate.<\/p>\n

Similarly, David was not afraid to admit that his flesh failed him. He knew it.<\/p>\n

He was not proud of it. But he was humble enough to readily admit his failures and own up to them.<\/p>\n

It was in this that he found strength in God.<\/p>\n

In the opening verse the word, strength, is translated as rock. God was the rock that gave his heart strength.<\/p>\n

Despite his failures, David is still someone we can learn a great deal from, especially when it comes to drawing strength from God during times of weakness.<\/p>\n

And just as Paul confessed his<\/i> battle with the flesh, let us also confess our struggles to God and allow Him to strengthen us in times of weakness.<\/p>\n

He alone can give us strength when our flesh fails us.<\/p>\n
