Day 5: Walking in Bold Faith and Confidence

Theme: Stepping Out in Faith to Pursue God’s Purpose
Scripture: "For we live by faith, not by sight." — 2 Corinthians 5:7

Devotional

As a Christian mom in business, there are moments when stepping out in faith feels daunting. You may face uncertainty, challenges, or fear of failure. Yet, God calls us to live by faith—not by what we can see or understand, but by trusting in His promises and His plan for our lives.

Faith is not the absence of fear or doubt, but the willingness to move forward even when we don’t have all the answers. It is trusting God with every decision, knowing that He will equip us to fulfill His purpose, even in the midst of uncertainty.

When I first stepped into the world of business, I was filled with a mixture of excitement and fear. Would my efforts succeed? Was I capable of balancing my business with my responsibilities as a mom? In those moments of doubt, I held on to the promise that God had called me to this work, and that He would guide me every step of the way. My confidence didn’t come from my own abilities but from the fact that He was with me, leading me, and helping me take bold steps toward the future He had planned for me.

Living by faith means trusting that God has already gone before you and is preparing the way for success in His timing. It means moving forward even when the road ahead is unclear. With each step, God builds your faith, and with each challenge, He strengthens your resolve.

As a mom in business, you are already walking in bold faith by choosing to pursue your dreams while caring for your family. Every decision you make, every step you take, is an act of faith. Trust that God is guiding you and empowering you to walk confidently into the future He has for you.

Today, step forward boldly, knowing that God is with you, equipping you, and empowering you to fulfill His purpose. Trust Him with your dreams and your business, knowing that He will be your guide and your strength.

Reflection Questions

1. Is there an area of your business or life where God is calling you to step out in faith?
2. What are some fears or doubts you need to surrender to God today?
3. How can you embrace boldness in your business and in your role as a mom?

Action Step

Spend time today reflecting on areas of your business where you may be holding back out of fear or uncertainty. Take one step of boldness today—whether it’s making a tough decision, reaching out to a new opportunity, or simply trusting God with a current challenge. Write down your thoughts and prayers as you take this step in faith.

Devotional Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of faith. I trust You with every step I take in my business and as a mom. Help me to walk boldly, knowing that You are with me every step of the way. Strengthen my faith, and help me to move forward in confidence, trusting that You are guiding my every decision. I surrender my fears and doubts to You and ask for the courage to follow Your lead. In Jesus' name, Amen.
