Jeremiah 17:7-8 But blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him.
Yesterday we finished off with our declaration 'I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might' and it made me start to think.
I expect in all our lives there are times when we don't feel very confident. Things happen which knock us sideways and may even lead us to have an inferiority complex for one reason or another. If we compare ourselves to others who we think are more able, more gifted, etc. we can begin to feel 'less than' which undermines our confidence. Anyone feel like that sometimes?
The good news is that we can live in confidence because of His strength. The only thing we need is the Lord Himself who never leaves us and our total confidence is in Him. He is the One who is equipping us for the life we have right now and what He has for us to do. We no longer need to depend on our own abilities, or worry about our weaknesses, because we can be strong by depending on the power of His might and His supernatural ability inside us, not ours.
God only wants us to run our own race, not someone else's, and He is giving us the strength and power to do just that.😊
Please be encouraged today, you are a confident, well able person, you are a 'can do' person because your confidence is not in yourself, it is in Jesus our Saviour, our Healer, Provider and Protector, our Everything and as we said yesterday, He is living inside us by the Holy Spirit. The Greater One is in you and me!
Would you like to join me in speaking out this declaration over our lives today, based on our verse?...
