The Gate — J Calaway — Make Today Count

Oct 10, 2025    J Calaway

“Prayer is the bridge between our weakness and God’s strength.”


Point 1: Prayer Shows Our Dependence on God


2 Corinthians 12:9 — “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”

Prayer acknowledges we can’t rely on ourselves and invites God’s strength into our situation.

Weakness is not a liability—it’s the bridge to God’s power.


Point 2: Prayer Activates God’s Power


Philippians 4:13 — “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

Prayer connects our weakness to God’s limitless strength.

It transforms fear into courage, confusion into clarity, and despair into hope.


Point 3: Prayer Builds Endurance in Weakness


Isaiah 40:29 — “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.”


Prayer sustains us through long challenges and seasons of weakness.

God’s strength is sufficient, and His grace never runs out.


Challenge:


Identify one area of weakness today. Pray about it and walk across the bridge of prayer to experience God’s strength.
