Joyce Meyer Devotional 24th December 2024, Tuesday Message
TOPIC: You Can Be Confident
For in Him does our heart rejoice, because we have trusted (relied on and been confident) in His holy name. – Psalm 33:21 (AMPC)
God wants us to live with confidence and approach life boldly—and we can be thankful that He helps us do both. Make the choice today to start being more decisive. It may be a bold move for you if you have spent a lot of your life in fear and indecision, but it is necessary if you want to enjoy a life of peace. Indecision is not a peaceful place.
Put your confidence in Christ and who you are in Him, not in what people think of you. Know yourself! Know your heart, and don’t wait for other people to dictate to you the truth about your value. Don’t assume you are wrong every time someone does not agree with you. Believe that God’s wisdom dwells inside of you. Believe you can make decisions. There is no point in believing something negative about yourself when it’s just as easy to believe something positive—and it’s certainly a lot more beneficial.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Father, I am thankful that my confidence is not in my own self or my abilities; my confidence is in Christ Jesus. I believe that I have Your wisdom and Your discernment. Today, I am going to live a bold, confident life.
