– 1 Chronicles 22:13
Give Faith Your All!
God has created you to be a champion – a mountain mover and an earth shaker – so why are you sitting on the sidelines waiting for someone else to take the lead (you know who you are)?
The gifting and the ministry that God has anointed you with is waiting to spill its banks – to overflow and flood the land with the Power of the Holy Spirit! The only thing holding it back is your reluctance to see the Authority that God has already given you, but that you've yet to discover because of a timid heart. I'm not saying it's going to be easy. I'm not saying it won't be without its obstacles and trials. I'm not even saying that you won't face quite a bit of opposition from some pretty impressive people . . . but what I am saying is that by Faith it's yours! By Faith it's there for the taking! By Faith you will change this world . . . by Faith!
Every hero of the Bible was reluctant and timid at one time or another. They doubted, and they feared, and they made mistakes, but when they could no longer deny the Power and the Presence of God in their lives, by Faith, they took Courage, and the set aside their timid hearts, and they didn't hold anything back! And because of their faithfulness, God used them to touch the heart of man! He used them to present His Truth of Love, and Grace, and Forgiveness to the lost generation of their time. Their Faith was so strong, and their success so overwhelming that they are still changing the hearts of man today – thousands of years later.
God wants you to BELIEVE! The assignment He has placed inside your heart WILL succeed! The passion that has been burning inside you but that you've kept bottled-up is getting ready to explode with the full backing of God Himself! But you've gotta have Faith! You've gotta Believe! You've gotta make the first (and most difficult) step! It's up to you . . . no one's gonna do it for you because the task is not theirs to do . . . it's YOURS!
So follow God's direction: Courage! Take charge! Don't be timid! Don't hold back!
SEE what God will do through you! SEE what God can do through your willing heart . . . and your unwavering Faith!
Prayer
Father, I pray for this person who needs to release the Power of Your Holy Spirit and step forth in Faith! I pray for Confidence, and Courage, and Boldness that can only come from You! Show them the way as they step forth and live the life You have called out for them. I stand beside them in unified brotherhood, ready to hold them up and to help them to remain steadfast and true to the calling You have placed on their ministry and their life!
Have a blessed day everyone (You know who you are)!
