Be Intentional

Good Day Good People, I encourage today to believe in the dreams and good things your heart desires. 

Positive word of the day- intentional- done on purpose; deliberate. (conscious)

Scripture of the day- Exodus 15:26-  He said, “If you listen carefully to the Lord your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals you.”

Jeremiah 30:17- But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds,’ declares the Lord, ‘because you are called an outcast, Zion for whom no one cares.’

Romans 8:18-19-  I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.

Quote of the day- “Surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers and thinkers, but most of all, surround yourself with those who see the greatness within you, even when you don't see it yourself.” - Edmond Lee

Faith Beats Fear

Adapted from the resource Trusting God Day by Day - by Joyce Meyer

"I will not fear," is the only acceptable attitude we can have toward fear. That does not mean that you and I will never feel fear, but it does mean that we will not allow it to rule our decisions and actions.

The Bible says that God has not given us a spirit of fear. Fear is not from God; it is the devil's tool to keep us from enjoying our lives and making progress. Fear causes us to run, retreat, or shrink back. The Bible says in Hebrews 10:38 that we are to live by faith and not draw back in fear—and if we do draw back in fear, God's soul has no delight in us. That does not mean God does not love us; it simply means He is disappointed because He wants us to experience all of the good things He has in His plan for us. We can receive from God only by faith.

We should strive to do everything with a spirit of faith. Faith is confidence in God and a belief that His promises are true. Faith will cause you to go forward, to try new things, and to be aggressive. Unless we make a firm decision to "fear not," we will never be free from the power of it. "Do it afraid" means to feel the fear and do what you believe you should do any way.

I encourage you to be firm in your resolve to do whatever you need to do, even if you have to "do it afraid!" Trust in Him Choose to walk in faith, trusting God's promises. Remember to "fear not," and when you do feel fear, "do it afraid."

Prayer Starter: Lord God, help me not to allow fear to rule my life, but when I do feel fear, give me the courage to do it afraid. In Jesus’ name, amen.
