I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. 

When God designed you, He knew what pressures you would face: financial pressure, relationship pressure, raising children pressure, dealing with an illness pressure. If that pressure was going to crush you, God wouldn’t have put you there. He doesn't make mistakes. Whatever you face, remind yourself that you can handle it. Now you have to get in agreement with God. If you go around thinking, "This pressure at work is too much. I can't take it, that's going to defeat you."

The Scripture says you are full of can-do power. You are well able to overcome opposition, to outlast adversity. But can-do power doesn't do any good if you have a can't-do mentality. Quit looking at all the things you can't do. Have a new perspective: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. This obstacle may be big, but I can overcome it. This trouble is taking longer than I thought, but I can outlast it. This situation feels overwhelming, but I’m designed for it. I'm strong, I'm anointed, and I'm equipped."

Father, thank You for designing me with strength for every pressure that I will ever face. Thank You that You have already equipped me with power to overcome opposition and outlast adversity. I declare that I am strong and can do all things through Christ. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
