Give yourself permission to shine for God’s glory.

“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16

My sister, maybe you hate the spotlight. Maybe you turn down promotions because you are afraid of everyone looking to you as a leader. Maybe you have dealt with fear of walking in your purpose because it is so huge. I’m here to tell you, the same Holy Spirit that is empowering countless women around the world and giving them courage and confidence when they feel afraid, is the same Holy Spirit who will empower you at every turn.

Speak to the little girl within you. Give her permission to shine bright for God’s glory. Give her permission to walk in the plan and purpose the Lord has assigned for her life! He has been with her since she took her first breath, and the Lord is with you now helping you to shine for Him!

Prayer: Father God, thank you for loving me with a perfect love that drives out all fear. You did not give me a spirit of fear or timidity, but of power, love and a sound mind. Help me to walk courageously and confidently in your plan and purpose. Help me stay reminded that no matter how afraid I feel, those are only feelings. It’s not who I am. I am your daughter and you’ve got my back. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

(Read Isaiah 60:1-3)
