“AATHAVAN” – August 28, 2026, Friday
“For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.” — 2 Corinthians 13:4 (KJV)
Although Jesus Christ was the Son of God and truly God, He appeared on earth in the form of a weak human being. He was tempted in every way just as we are, yet He remained without sin. That is why He is able to help us in all our weaknesses. The writer of Hebrews says:
“For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.” — Hebrews 4:15 (KJV)
Thus, Jesus was crucified in weakness, as a man. But He did not remain on the cross and perish. Rather, He rose again, victorious and fully able to save us. He is alive even today.
Yes, dear friends, while we live on this earth, we too are weak human beings, just as Christ appeared to be in His earthly life. Yet, though we are weak, we shall live with Him through the power of God. This is the hope of Christianity.
Today, various sufferings, sins, illnesses, and problems may surround us. They may make us feel weak and helpless. But the One who raised Christ from the dead is with us. He will not allow us to perish.
When Christ was hanging on the cross, the Jews and others mocked Him, saying in effect, “If thou be Christ, come down from the cross; then we will believe thee.” But Christ remained silent until the appointed time. Then He rose again from the dead in glory.
In the same way, our present circumstances may appear insignificant or even hopeless in the eyes of the world. People may look at us and ask, “If God is with you, why are you suffering like this? There are many who do not believe in God, yet they seem to be living better lives than you.”
But we do not have to answer such questions. Christ Himself answered them through His resurrection.
Just as Christ was crucified through weakness, yet lived by the power of God, we too may be weak today, but through the power of God working in us, we shall live with Him.
If there is a time appointed for the cross, there is also a time appointed for resurrection. If there is a season of suffering, there will also be a season of victory. We need not defend ourselves before those who question our faith. God Himself will answer on our behalf.
Therefore, dear friends, do not be discouraged by your present weakness or circumstances. Your story does not end at the cross. The power of God that raised Christ from the dead is still at work. Wait upon Him in faith. In His appointed time, He will turn your weakness into strength, your suffering into victory, and your sorrow into joy.
“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength.”
— Isaiah 40:31 (KJV) Your present weakness is not the end. The power of God will bring forth your resurrection and victory in His appointed time.
