2 Corinthians 129 But He said to me, "My grace
is sufficient for you, for my power is made
perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all
the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that
Christ's power may rest on me.
16
2 Corinthians 1210 That is why, for Christ's
sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in
hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.

For when I am weak, then I am strong.

For when I am weak, then I am strong.

1 Samuel 1745 David said to the Philistine,
"You come against me with sword and spear and
javelin, but I come against you in the name of
the LORD Almighty, the God of the armies of
Israel, Whom you have defied.
20
1 Samuel 1747 All those gathered here will know
that it is not by sword or spear that the LORD
saves for the battle is the LORD's, and He
will give all of you into our hands."
21
1 Samuel 1750 So David triumphed over the
Philistine with a sling and a stone without a
sword in his hand he struck down the Philistine
and killed him.
