The courageous step.


In this season the Lord wants us to take a step of faith. He wants to show Himself strong on our behalf and He wants us to know He is with us.

I have been learning this lesson this year and one thing was made very clear to me,

The Lord is not sitting on a couch somewhere, waiting for things to get better, no! He is looking for people who will trust Him to do the impossible.

Joshua was a man who had a huge calling on his life. He was Moses’ predecessor and you can only imagine the emotions and feelings he was dealing with.

But in spite of all he was feeling the Lord spoke to him,

 

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.””

‭‭Joshua‬ ‭1:9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

 

As he was about to take a step of faith into the unknown the Lord told him to not be afraid but to be strong and very courageous.

Taking a step of faith takes strength and courage. Ask the Lord for His strength because you can’t do it in your own strength. That’s something I know He was calling me to do as I wrote my book. Even though it was difficult and even though there were times I wanted to quit, He was by my side helping me.

As I come to the end of this post I have a question for you.

What are some of the things God wants you to take a step of faith in?

Do not be afraid but be very strong and courageous.

 

On another note,

I want to let you know my book is being released on the 19th of September so if you would like to pre-order your copy follow the link which I will put at the end of the post.

Lastly, I have started a series on IGTV called “Behind the scenes” where I talk about fear and the challenges I faced writing my book.

You are not alone in this.


“So one night the king of Aram sent a great army with many chariots and horses to surround the city. When the servant of the man of God got up early the next morning and went outside, there were troops, horses, and chariots everywhere. “Oh, sir, what will we do now?” the young man cried to Elisha.”

‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭6:14-15‬ ‭NLT‬‬

 

Elisha’s servant saw the enemy horde and got afraid. He thought they were alone against the enemy but not Elisha. He knew he was not alone and he prayed that his servant would see the truth. (2 Kings 6:17)

You are not alone in this. The Lord is with you. The challenges and trials may seem too much for you but you have Someone to turn to. As the enemy seems unbeatable and victorious there is a truth you can hold on to,

 

““Don’t be afraid!” Elisha told him. “For there are more on our side than on theirs!””

‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭6:16‬ ‭NLT‬‬

 

Don’t try to go at it alone. You can ask for help because He is right by your side.
