Resolutions fail because we intend to accomplish them with our strength. In the body of Christ, we know that our convictions mean we are convinced that God is real, and so are His words. In 2 Corinthians 12, Paul talks about his limitations. He explains how he was given a thorn in his side, and when he asked the Lord to remove it, the Lord said no on three occasions. Although Paul is speaking about humility in this passage, Jesus’ response to Paul’s request to remove his limitation is a word we can stand on when it comes to accomplishing our intentions. The Lord responds to Paul by saying, my grace is sufficient for thee. For my strength is made perfect in weakness. When we put our resolutions or our intentions before God, He gives us the power to accomplish what we can’t do in our strength. Therefore, our resolutions won’t fail.
