Are you launching your faith today? Are you launching out and walking in your destiny?
It is okay if your not but after reading this little devotional maybe that will change. And together we can launch out not only for ourselves but in the hopes of changing the world and giving hope to others who are sitting back and wondering what life is all about.
God Bless.
Launch Out
by Joyce Meyer
When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”-Luke 5:4 NKJV
The only way we ever reach our final destination and succeed at being our true selves is to take many, many steps of faith. Stepping out into the unknown—into something we have never done before—can leave us shaking in our boots. Because of feelings of fear, many people never “step out,” therefore they never “find out” what they are capable of.
I believe we are very close to the time when Jesus will return for His Church, and I don’t think He has time to spend months and months convincing each of us to obey when He wants us to step out into something. I believe the more we progress into what we call “the last days,” the more God is going to require radical steps of obedience.
Many people are missing the will of God for their lives because they are “playing it safe.” I don’t want to come to the end of my life and say, “I was safe, but I’m sorry.” The world has a little saying: “Better safe than sorry.” I am not sure that always works in God’s economy. If I had tried to be safe all the time, I am sure I would not be where I am today.
Lord, there truly is no safe place apart from being with You, walking in Your will for my life. I refuse to play it safe as long as I know what You want. Amen.
