Scripture: Psalm 27
-A lot of times people do not have courage because they do not have a relationship with God.
-Your relationship with the Lord is not based upon fear, it’s based on love. Yes you should absolutely fear the Lord, but he is a God that loves and cares for us and genuinely wants to have a relationship with us.
-Be of good courage.
-People put God out of a lot of stuff. Why? That just shows that a lot of people are not really about God, they are about the world.
-People should see strength in your attitude not fear and cowardliness.
-God wants you to be confident and to share the truth with others.
-Are you willing to obey God no matter what?
-Think about somebody else besides yourself.
Scripture: Philippians 4
-Everything in life will not always go your way.
-It is essential to trust God through tough situations, don’t draw further from him.
Scripture: Ephesians 6
-The Devil is competitive, he doesn’t want to see you win in Christ.
-Whatever you do not stand in is what you fall in.
-Are you willing to do whatever God says? There will be a day where you faith will be tested. Why? Because the Devil wants you to quit!
-There will be certain situations that are uncomfortable, but you have to deal with them the right way.
Scripture: Proverbs 3
-When you really do stand for the Lord, people may hate you, but they respect you more than you know.
-God knows people, he created them!
-Trust God with your life.
-Acknowledge God in everything that you do.
-Some people would rather go to hell than to be humble. Sad…
-Be careful because fear can drive you to hurt people, even the ones that you love.
