In God I
have put my trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? Psalm 56:11
Through
the Holy Spirit's guidance and wisdom, we are capable of achieving the work
that the Lord desires for us to accomplish. But fear can cause us to stumble
and fail.
For
example, fear of criticism will often make us drag our feet and cause us to
worry about others' opinions. Instead, we should be placing a priority on
pleasing God.
Fear of
making mistakes may prevent us from either starting a project or changing our
behaviour.
As
believers, we must remember that we live the Christian life by depending on
God, who promises to provide us with our needs as we obediently follow Him.
Yes, you
may make some mistakes along the way but remember that the Lord is your
strength.
Fear of
having our weaknesses exposed causes us to worry about other people's opinions
of us instead of focusing on our strengths.
It's
important to stay in God's Word so we can gain a biblical perspective on our
fears and think accurately and positively about the future. Remember that God
is able to handle your weaknesses.
Instead
of hiding them, you can go to the Lord and ask for His help. Doubt is another
reason for failure.
Many of
us have trouble believing in our God-given abilities, or we question whether we
deserve the Lord's plans for our lives.
The
antidote to doubt is increased trust in God, which we can gain by meditating on
His characteristics and His promises.
God
expects us to operate according to His timetable, not our own. So watch out for
procrastination, which can derail success.
God
promises victory through Jesus Christ. What's holding you back?
Prayer:
Thank you Lord, that I can do the things that you have called me to do.
Scriptural
Reading: Psalm 56:1-13
