BEWARE OF DISCOURAGERS

 

BEWARE OF DISCOURAGERS

Num. 13: 31-32 But the other men who had explored the land with him answered, “We can’t go up against them! They are stronger than we are!” So they spread discouraging reports about the land among the Israelites. NLT

Beware of the discouragers, those who try to tell you that you can’t do what you are trying to do. Discouragers are people who do not believe in you. They are people who are not doing what you are doing and don’t want you to succeed. They are people who don’t have the faith that you have that you can be successful. They are all around us and if you listen to them and take what they say to heart, you will not succeed.

When God moves you to do a task, trust Him, and don’t listen to the naysayers. Don’t believe those who say it can’t be done or that you are not the person to do it. Listen to God, obey Him, and don’t look back. God never moves us to do anything without giving us the ability to do it with His help. There is nothing you cannot do with the Lord as your guide and helper.

Stand on the promises of God and you will be successful, regardless of the outcome of your endeavor. The results may not be what you expect, but if you do it in faith, you will not fail in God’s eyes. The only time you will fail is when you fail to step out in faith and try. God rewards the faith of His children. Even if God does not specifically give you a task to do, move forward in faith and keep doing. Do all you do for the glory and honor of God and you will be a huge success in life.
