New Levels





TODAY'S SCRIPTURE



"For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love,
and self-discipline."


(2 Timothy 1:7, NLT)





TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria



God's desire is that we continually progress, that we reach higher heights
and go to new levels. Oftentimes, as soon as we make the decision to step
out in faith and obey God, the enemy brings in fear to try to stop us. He'll
bring thoughts like, "What if you fail? What are other people going to
think? You don't have what it takes." He'll do his best to use fear to try
to convince us to shrink back and stay where we are.

The Bible says that fear is a spirit. It plays on our emotions and holds us
back. But the good news is that we have power over fear! The Bible says that
perfect love casts out all fear. When we receive God's perfect love, we will
have confidence about the future because we know His plans are for our good.
I've heard it said that fear is an acronym for False Evidence Appearing
Real. Understand that fear is a lie. Today, choose to believe God's Word and
receive His love so that you can overcome fear and move forward into the
good life He has prepared for you!




A PRAYER FOR TODAY



Father in heaven, thank You for taking me to new levels. I know You have
equipped me with a spirit of power, love and a sound mind. Fill me with Your
confidence and assurance to embrace everything You have for me in Jesus'
name. Amen.



- Joel & Victoria Osteen
