Boldly reach forth for your next Level

Esther 4:15-16 (NKJV), Luke 15:20
Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai: “Go, gather all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me; neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. My maids and I will fast likewise. And so I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish!” *And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

What is that good thing that you know God wants you to do but you have been afraid or delaying for one reason or the other? Today God's grace is available for you to step out in faith and do it with boldness and confidence. We studied two days ago, that if God wants us to come 'boldly' to His throne of grace (Heb.4:16), then we can also face any person or situation boldly. Stop allowing any fear to limit you. Do you know that just because Esther was willing to take that bold step to go before the king on behalf of God's people, Haman's evil decree against God's people was turned around (Esth.8:5- 11) and in the end, the people of God had so much joy and gladness that people of other nationalities began to convert into Jews (Esth.8:16-17)? Mordecai was also promoted to second in command in Shushan (Esth.10:2-3)

God will back up your bold steps with His power and favour. In 2Kings 7:3-10, God used the four lepers who decided to leave the gate of Samaria (their comfort zone) and go into the camp of the Syrians, to bring a great harvest into the land of Samaria. God supernaturally amplified the sound of their steps that the entire Syrian army fled in terror and left all their wealth, food and possessions behind. Preach the gospel to that person, forgive and let go of that hurt, show love to that person, give and sow that seed, take your career and business to the next level, face and handle that challenge, yield to the leading of the Holy Spirit and trust God that the outcome of your bold step will be better than what you are thinking or praying for, Eph.3:20.

PRAYER: Lord I receive your grace and leading to boldly step out in faith and do all that I need to do today to reach forth for my next level.
