Strength for the Journey Ahead Toyin Adewumi

For us to travel and reach our destination, we need strength. Just as it was with Elijah, so it is with many of us today. The angel said the journey ahead was too much for him. By reason of this declaration, he got up, ate, drank and got strengthened by the food. Afterwards, he travelled and got to the mountain of God. When you are endowed with this strength, it gives you the power and ability to do things beyond natural or human strength and comprehension. Interestingly, it can make you do things that trigger surprise. For example, two men left for the same journey and accessed the same route. While one journeyed on foot, the other rode on an animal. But to everyone's amazement, the one who travelled on foot arrived the set destination first. This was explicitly portrayed in 1 king 18:45-46.
