Do You Question Your Abilities?

When I first began preaching, I was freaked out. It was overwhelming. I was used to being the second guy, the behind-the-scenes guy, helping someone else to shine. Being thrown onto center stage made me question a lot about myself!

Do you let your mistakes hold you back?

Have you ever heard of King David? He did some awesome things, and he messed up quite a bit too. Yet God called him “a man after His own heart.” (Acts 13:22).

As a teenager, when David was anointed to be king, all of his brothers were considered EXCEPT him. (1 Samuel 16:10-11) David was “just” a shepherd boy, not a warrior like his brothers. He didn’t necessarily fit the stereotypical warrior mold.

“…For the Lord sees, not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7)

Do you feel pressured to perform the same way as everyone else?

In time, it was David who took down the giant that the entire army AND his brothers feared. He didn’t do it the way everyone was telling him to, he used the tools HE was comfortable with. David stood firmly in the capability of his God to pour through him, he BEAT THAT GIANT.

Did you know God’s requirements are NOT like the world?

As you go through your day, if you find that you question your own ability, remember that God sees your heart. You may not be qualified, but you ARE called. God will qualify you.

It’s not YOUR PERFORMANCE that matters but what GOD CAN DO THROUGH YOU!
