Finish Free Devotional - Day 11 of 13

Choose Your Fuel

Prayer

Father God thank you for your perfect love. Thank you that when we are in relationship with you we can be free from fear. Thank you Lord that you are trustworthy and sovereign. I pray that as we approach our new year, we can approach it with the truth of who you are not only in our heart but in our mind. Help us to see the future in faith and not in fear. We come into this new year expectant, knowing you will do great things, you will be there for us when we need it, no struggle will be impossible for us, and no blessing will be too big for us. Have your way in this year Lord, for there is no greater plan than yours. I will trust you in the hard times and trust you in the good. I am just so thankful that you are with me in it all! Thank you for never leaving me Lord.

In your Son’s holy name,

Amen

Scripture

Romans 8:15

Thoughts

It’s time to decide what is going to fuel you’re coming year. Every action we take is determined by the motive of fear or the motive of faith. If you believe that God can do anything then you will go for the new job that other’s doubt you can do but if you believe you’re not good enough, you’ll never even try. Faith is believing that the things we can not see, the things that don’t make sense, can happen if God is in the mix. Fear is believing that you are only capable of what you have seen happen to others. But God says that his thoughts and plans are far greater than we can imagine. So it’s important that we decide what we are filling our gas tanks up with before we hit the road of 2016. If we take the time now to fill up with faith then we pave the way to take on the unthinkable God has in store. Believe that the best is yet to come! Be expectant of the great God you serve put your hope in His promises. Continue to fill your mind with the truth and move forward.
