The concept of weakness is addressed throughout Scripture, often highlighting human limitations and the need for divine strength and support.<br><br><b>Physical Weakness:</b> The Bible acknowledges the reality of physical weakness as part of the human condition. In the Old Testament, figures like Moses and David experienced physical frailty. Moses, despite his leadership, expressed his own limitations in <a href="/exodus/4-10.htm">Exodus 4:10</a>, saying, "O Lord, I am not eloquent... I am slow of speech and tongue." Similarly, David, in his old age, was described as weak and unable to keep warm (<a href="/1_kings/1.htm">1 Kings 1:1</a>).<br><br><b>Spiritual Weakness:</b> Spiritual weakness is a recurring theme, often associated with a lack of faith or understanding. In the New Testament, Jesus addresses the spiritual weakness of His disciples. In <a href="/matthew/26-41.htm">Matthew 26:41</a> , He warns them, "Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak." This highlights the tension between human intentions and the frailty of human nature.<br><br><b>Moral Weakness:</b> The Bible also speaks to moral weakness, where individuals struggle with sin and temptation. The Apostle Paul discusses this in <a href="/romans/7-18.htm">Romans 7:18-19</a> , stating, "For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do. Instead, I keep on doing the evil I do not want to do." This passage reflects the internal battle between the desire to follow God's law and the weakness of the flesh.<br><br><b>Divine Strength in Weakness:</b> Despite human weakness, the Bible consistently points to God's strength as the ultimate source of support and empowerment. In <a href="/2_corinthians/12-9.htm">2 Corinthians 12:9-10</a> , Paul recounts the Lord's words to him: "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness." Paul concludes, "Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me." This passage underscores the transformative power of God's grace, which turns human weakness into an opportunity for divine strength to be displayed.<br><br><b>Compassion for the Weak:</b> Scripture calls believers to show compassion and support for those who are weak. In <a href="/romans/15.htm">Romans 15:1</a> , Paul exhorts, "We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves." This reflects the Christian duty to support and uplift those who struggle, embodying the love and grace of Christ.<br><br><b>Weakness as a Path to Humility:</b> The Bible often presents weakness as a means to cultivate humility and reliance on God. In <a href="/james/4-10.htm">James 4:10</a> , believers are encouraged to "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you." Recognizing one's own weakness can lead to a deeper dependence on God and a more profound experience of His power and presence.<br><br>In summary, the concept of weakness in the Bible serves as a reminder of human limitations and the necessity of relying on God's strength. It calls believers to humility, compassion, and a deeper faith in the transformative power of God's grace.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
