No Fear of Failure

God has called us for such a time as this.We all have a purpose on this earth, however it's up to us to live out the calling of God on our lives. God called us all for greatness. We were chosen before the foundations of the world. Our heavenly Father knew us before we were even in our mother's womb.Yet we have trouble trusting the one who knows us the most. Sure we trust God with our family and material possessions but how about for our destiny on this earth? Are you willing to take the risk and go wherever God says go? We have to be radical with this walk with Christ. This goes for me as well. So many times God has led me to pray for someone or meet with someone but fear was in the way. No Fear of Failure is the ability to take a risk and keep the focus and attention on our call and obedience!

 The Apostle Paul says it like this, "I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.I can do everything through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:12-13.

        Paul was fully aware that the people he was going to encounter most likely were not going to accept him and the Gospel of Christ. Paul wanted to stress to us how Christians ought to live.Without the goal of pleasing our Lord as our guide and gratitude to drive us, we will be too afraid to go beyond our comfort zones to do anything of significance. My comfort zone is a safe place, where I feel secure and confident. Going out of my comfort zone is intimidating at times. I don't want to fail. I know I am not alone in feeling like this.When we do not have the ability to take a risk, then we need to ask God and ourselves why.Then we need to realize the results belong to the Lord and Him alone.We do not need to worry about the results,because they are in the Lord’s hands, they belong to Him. God is sovereign, we should not fear going to our neighbor and witnessing, nor should we fear to do what it takes in our leadership responsibility.  

This week try this with me: If God says it don't hesitate just do it! Remember God rewards obedience.
