Psalm 119:28
28 My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou
me according unto thy word.
Extreme athletes—marathoners, triathletes, distance runners, road bikers—know that nutrition can be a secret to success. Carbohydrates and protein before an event; more carbs, electrolytes, and liquids during; and within a critical half-hour window after extreme exertion, more carbs, liquids, and electrolytes. Strength depends not just on conditioning but on nutrition.
And the same is true in the race of the Christian life. Paul used the analogy of extreme sports—runners in the Greek games—to illustrate the endurance needed for the Christian life (1 Corinthians 9:24; 2 Timothy 4:7), as did the writer to the Hebrews (Hebrews 12:1). What, then, is the nutrition needed for finishing the race? Prayer is certainly critical as Jesus demonstrated (Matthew 26:36). But alongside prayer, nothing is as sustaining as the truths of God’s Word: “Revive me, O Lord, according to Your word” (Psalm 119:107). Why? Because it is living and active (Hebrews 4:12); it tells us the truth about the past, present, and future; it affirms the promises God has made to us (2 Peter 1:4).
Are you weak or strong today? To maintain your strength for the race, take in daily portions of nutrition from God’s Word.
Within the Scripture there is a balm for every
wound, a salve for every sore. ~ Charles H. Spurgeon

Paul also likened the saints to soilders claiming that we should not be concerned with civilian affairs. This walk is a fight and we must fight the good fight unto the end.

Without prayers we can't run this Christian race and we need to have the word of God in our hearts to be able to rebuke the devil when he tries to tempt us David said

Certainly @deathlyhorror we must pray to the Holy Spirit to grant us the grace of its fruits and on our part to nourish our soul with the reading of the sacred word of the Bible. In addition of course to exercise charity with the needy. Now I proceed to reblog this post and I invite you to come back and read my last article " The Church community around Jesus Christ". Receive an affectionate hug.

That is the best food we can consume. It nourishes us, strengthens us and advises us whatever the situation we live. If you read a verse today helps you what you live today and if on the contrary you read a year later, that same verse helps you to that situation that you are going through a year later.

Truly Jesus our Lord started and ended with prayer, therefore we should cultivate the habit of a sincere prayerful life. The word of God was made flesh in Christ Jesus, Ref: John 1:1. Till we all come unto the fullness of the nature and stature of Christ we would not command dominion. @deathlyhorror
