Conquering the fear of failure
“If you let fear rule your life, you won’t ever step out in faith and fulfill your destiny. Isn’t it better to risk failure and do what God wants, rather than the risk of displeasing Him?”
For I hold you by your right hand — I, the Lord your God.
And I say to you,‘Don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.’ – Isaiah 41:13
“Only those who overcome fear go far in life. Conquering the fear of failure begins with believing that God wants you to succeed. With that truth ringing in your ears, you can’t only defy your fears, but fulfill your dreams.”
When to send your SOS
“We like to think of ourselves as self-sufficient, but it’s wise to know when we need help.”
“As long as Moses held up the staff in his hand, the Israelites had the advantage. But whenever he dropped his hand, the Amalekites gained the advantage. Moses’ arms soon became so tired he could no longer hold them up. So Aaron and Hur found a stone for him to sit on. Then they stood on each side of Moses, holding up his hands. So his hands held steady until sunset.” – Exodus 17:11-12
“Sometimes, accepting help means giving up your role as the martyr or victim, tearing down walls of independence you’ve spent years building and letting other people be there for you.”
A servant’s calling
“Lord, I’m not serving You because I have to, but because I want to. Pierce my ear, mark me as Yours, bond me together with You so that I can never belong to another.”
“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.” – Romans 12:1 NLT
“When ministry loses its passion, it becomes an empty profession. The word “minister” is a verb, not a noun.”
A slave’s dream
“There’s always a potential alignment of talent and passion,
if you have the courage to pursue your life’s purpose and take risks.”
“I have said these things to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” – John 16:33 ESV
“Don’t become a slave to someone else’s dream. Ask the Lord to show you your own dream. Once you own a dream, that dream will own you. Being a slave to someone else’s dream quickly becomes a nightmare.”
The Voice of Worries
“Worry is a lack of trust in God. “
“So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.” – Matthew 6: 31-32 NIV
“While you are waiting for Him to answer, just pray and stand on His Word. Don’t give your worries a voice.”
