\u2018\u2026may He equip you with all you need for doing His will.\u00a0 \u00a0 May He produce in you, through the power of Jesus Christ, every good thing that is pleasing to Him. \u00a0 All glory to Him forever and ever! Amen.\u2019\u00a0 Hebrews 13:21<\/i><\/p>\n
There are times when we might be overwhelmed by our circumstances whether it be in the workplace, our ministries, or in our personal lives.\u00a0 When we look at our circumstance with our natural eyes and understanding, all reality tells us that what we are dealing with is far greater and bigger than we are, and with that reality also come thoughts of insecurity and fear.<\/p>\n
\u201cAm I really equipped to handle this? \u00a0 I don\u2019t feel qualified, I don\u2019t have the degree or qualification that he\/she has. \u00a0 So and so has way more experience. \u00a0 God should use that person instead, they are more gifted than me\u2026\u201d Have you ever had similar thoughts?<\/p>\n
Insecurities and fear can often in times give us a spirit of fear and timidity. \u00a0 They can paralyze us and stunt our God-given potential and can cause us to turn down what God wants to take us into. \u00a0 When you notice this happening, call to mind the scripture in Hebrews, and remember that God will equip you to do His will<\/b>. \u00a0 You have His Spirit living inside of you and that qualifies you and makes your more than capable. \u00a0 You can accomplish all that He has planned for you. You can do the unthinkable and achieve anything through His power and strength.<\/p>\n
As women who have God\u2019s Spirit within us, we are called to be bold for the Kingdom of God! \u00a0 We are called to make a difference.<\/p>\n
If you have been given an opportunity, or perhaps you are being called and led to start a ministry, to write, to speak, to take a stand, to be a leader, or to invite an unbeliever to church \u2013 don\u2019t be afraid! Don\u2019t be timid! Don\u2019t let doubt and insecurity crowd your thoughts.\u00a0 Boldly proclaim God\u2019s Word and carry out what He is calling you to do. \u00a0 Don\u2019t let the objections overcome God\u2019s assignment for you.<\/p>\n
God equips us in proportion with our tasks. \u00a0 If He has called you to something, He will equip you with the skills, the wisdom, the time, the energy, the courage and the boldness necessary to do His will.\u00a0 \u00a0 We need to draw on Him and trust Him in those times, surrendering our all to Him and allow His grace to work in and through us. \u00a0 You have the Spirit of the living God in you, therefore you can accomplish all that He has planned for you.<\/p>\n
Be bold, be brave and let God be God in and through you.<\/p>\n
