🔥 The Strength That Prevails | Resilient Experience | John Eldredge
"We rally and we rally… until one day, our soul says, ‘I’m done.’"
Modern life is relentless. The pace, the pressure, the constant stream of news, the crises— they drain us.
Like a camel that walks for weeks without water only to collapse without warning, our souls can be pushed beyond their limits.
But Jesus knew this moment would come. And He gave us a way through it.

🕊 The Strength to Prevail
Jesus said:
📖 "Pray for the strength to escape the madness of this time." (Luke 21)
The Greek word for "strength" in this passage—katischuó—is the same word He used when saying the gates of hell will not prevail against His people.
This is not about "gutting it out."
It’s not about willpower.
It’s about receiving God’s strength—the kind that overcomes.
🔥 Are You Running on Empty?
Right now, we are living in the hour of the ten bridesmaids (Matthew 25).
Some are preparing, storing up the presence of God in their lives.
Others are coasting, unprepared, running out of reserves.
We see it everywhere—people tapping out, throwing in the towel, exhausted.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
💡 What’s Next?
💪 You don’t have to face this alone.
🛡 God offers you strength, resilience, and restoration.
🔥 Will you receive it?
