Pray for each other’s confidence in Christ.
When I first learned to drive, I didn’t really take my foot off the brakes. I was riding the brake so much, I was as good as being parked on a 45 mph road.
I can’t say I was being a careful driver, more like a self-doubting one. I’d already received the permit to drive with my parents in the car and go wherever I wanted. I just couldn’t get past the doubt to release my foot off the brakes.
So many of us have our foot locked in on the brakes of insecurity even though God has already permitted us to live up to our full potential. What’s keeping your foot irrationally on the brake? Is it fear? The past? Is it skepticism?
God enables us to go beyond and explore the land of good and mighty works for His glory. But when insecurity takes the passenger seat instead of our confidence in Christ, we’re afraid to even leave the driveway. Doubt in what God has called us to do for His glory disguises itself in rational thinking backed by false claims of why you shouldn’t. God is your biggest supporter, and He is saying GO! Nothing else has the power to say no.
When you operate in God’s will, He’s got your back. Let’s recognize every lie that feeds insecurity and doubt. You are wonderfully made. Stand firm in Jesus and prepare to soar into the promises of God.
Ask: How can I pray for your confidence in Christ?
Consider This:
- Pray that God silences lies of Satan that stop you both from pursuing God in freedom.
- Pray that God lifts each of your hearts up each time insecurity in Christ wants to creep in.
Truly make note of each other’s response to the question, and take it to the Lord in prayer.
