DONT LET FEAR HOLD YOU BACK. In God I have put my trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? Psalm 56:11 Through the Holy Spirits 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 peoples opinions of us instead of focusing on our strengths. Its important to stay in Gods 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 Lords 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. Whats holding you back?
