KEY POINTS1. The Call to Spiritual Strength “Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.”* (Ephesians 6:10) * Strength in the Lord is not physical—it comes from revelation, knowledge, and conviction. * Truth means reality—factual, spiritual realities that produce tangible and consistent results. * You must come to a point where no knowledge can change your mind about God. * Prayer must be rooted in revelation; pray from the Word, not from fear or emotion.
