COURAGE AND CONFIDENCE Proverbs 28:1-5
Devotional:-“The wicked flee when no one pursues, But the righteous are bold as a lion” (V. 1) NKJV
The cleansing power of the word of God works to purify and release the Spirit of righteousness into the heart of people. When a heart is gaining righteousness by the word of the Lord, it gains boldness. Courage and confidence are the products of a clean and clear mind. When someone has nothing to hide, he becomes bold in defending himself and claiming his right.
The word of God says, a sinner runs when no one pursues, but the righteous is as bold as a lion. It is sin that brings condemnation, but the righteousness of God makes a man bold. To live in righteousness is to live and stand right with God. The word of God teaches us of how to stand right with God. Righteousness is standing right where God is standing. The word of God is the word of righteousness. To be confidence is to be sure of a backing. The word of God assures us of the backing of God (Psalms 23:4). To be courageous is by the right spirit and this is the Spirit of the word of God.
Friend, it is important that you open the doors of your heart to the word of God. It will produce courage and confidence in your heart. It will build faith in you and make you courageous to confronts the devil (Romans 10:17). By the word of God, you will conquer in your life in Jesus name. Peace!
PRAYER: Lord, help me to gain strength by your word.
