Banish Doubt: Dare to Live Out Your Purpose, a 5-Day Devotional Plan by Arris CharlesSample

Day 5 - Cultivating Confidence: Dare to Live out Your Purpose

Pause…
Whether you are still on the journey to discover the purpose God has for you or you already have a clear vision of it, I invite you to consider this question:

“In this moment, in what ways do I feel drawn to explore or expand my contribution to others or the world around me?”

Envision…
Picture yourself one year from now living out this passion. Where are you? Who is with you? How are you using your strengths and gifts? How are your good works making a difference in the lives of those you help and in your own life? What part of yourself has been dormant that now feels alive?

Closing your eyes and trying not to direct your thoughts may be helpful. Let insights and images arise naturally, and be open to what your heart or God may reveal to you.

Consider…
Picture yourself five or ten years from now if doubt has shaped your path instead of confidence. How does your vision change? What passions remain unfulfilled? What potential remains untapped? What opportunities may be missed in your life? What impact might others miss in theirs?

Do not throw away your confidence…
In Hebrews 10:32-39, we find a powerful message for Christians facing persecution, urging them not to “throw away” their confidence despite doubt and fear. Along with them, we are encouraged to continue to fulfill God’s will to receive what He promised.

Challenges will also tempt us to give in to doubt and throw away our confidence. However, with each courageous step we dare to take, we build confidence in who we are in Christ and what is possible with God.

God created us for a unique impact. We cultivate confidence and gain clarity by progressing in our purpose instead of shrinking back. As we live out God’s plan for our lives, we draw closer to Him and witness the fulfillment of His promises within ourselves and our lives.

Dare to believe…

Take a moment to see yourself through God’s eyes.

You are capable. Your purpose is possible. God’s power allows you to fulfill His vision for your life.

When you dare to live out your purpose, your life will never be the same because purpose changes everything!

Where is God prompting you to step out in confidence? How will you banish doubt and dare to answer His call?

Prayer for Purpose…

Father, help me embrace my worth in You and my significance in Your plan. Renew my thoughts to align with Yours and fill me with Your peace. Reveal the dreams you have placed in my heart. Build my confidence in You and grant me clarity for the steps ahead. May I dare to live out the purpose you planned for me. Amen.
