One of my vices is to drink Pepsi or Coke every morning. I know it may not be the best choice. But it is what I need to get an energy booth to get me going in the day. Other people drink coffee or tea or sports drinks to perk them up to give them a lift to start their tasks.
The truth is that the Lord gives us an energy boost like no drink on earth can. Consider these enlivening words of Scripture:
The joy of the Lord your strength. Nehemiah 8:10
For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. Romans 15:4
Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Jushua 1:9
They who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
What gives us an energy boost according to these verses? Joy of the Lord, the Scriptures, having hope, knowing that God is with you and being renewed as we wait for him. Every time you indulge in your morning energy boost, consider these ways of being energized in your faith. They have the power to bring you everlasting liveliness in God.
