“God-confidence places reliance on God’s grace, and grace is God’s doing. His grace is all the qualifications you will ever need to fulfil your God-given opportunities.”

2 Chronicles 15:7
But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.

Joe stepped into the open-plan office space of his new company. It was only his second day on the job. Though he was very grateful for the opportunity and knew he was qualified, he lacked confidence. His desk was situated three-quarters of the way across the large room. He had to pass at least four other workstations to get to his chair. Though one person gave him a fleeting welcome wave, every head was down, already engrossed in the activities of the new day. Even so, Joe felt as though every eye was fixed on him. Quickly, he crossed the floor to his desk and sat down.

Confidence is an elusive virtue. Sometimes it flows with unabated gush, yet sometimes it lurks in the recesses of one’s soul like a shy mouse afraid of the light of morning. One thing I have learnt over the years is that self-confidence is fleeting, because self-confidence puts confidence in self – the ego. To be securely confident, I need to not be self-confident but God-confident. God-confidence places reliance on God’s grace, and grace is God’s doing. His grace is all the qualifications you will ever need to fulfil your God-given opportunities.

So, don’t throw away your confidence, it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere at every new opportunity so that when you have done what God has called you to do you will receive the fulfilment of all he has promised you. As Corrie Ten Boom said, “I believe that God delights to use his children in the fulfilment of his plans for the world. I am sure he loves to use small people to do great things.”

God-tracking is revelling in his rich grace for your confidence.

Don’t Give Up, Look Up & Pray

“I choose not throw away my confidence but persevere in the promises of your word to me.”

“My Lord, I realise now that I can only be confident in your purposes and your grace for my life. Therefore, I want to surrender every aspect of my life to you today: my work, my relationships, my church life, my sports, my recreation and my most private life. I put my confidence in God and not self, believing that you have promised to make me a success in all that I do. I choose not throw away my confidence but to persevere in the promises of your word to me. For your glory, Lord. Amen.”
