Word of Hope for Today with
Bro. Rolly Custodio
Do You Doubt Yourself About God's Calling? (Part-1)
‘Do not be afraid of
their faces, for I am with you…’ Jeremiah 1:8
Today’s Insight
Jeremiah writes: ‘Then the word of the
Lord came to me, saying: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before
you were born I sanctified you [set you apart]; I ordained you a prophet to the
nations.” Then said I: “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a
youth.” But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ for you shall go
to all to whom I send you, and whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not
be afraid of their faces, for I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord.
Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and…said: “Behold, I
have put My words in your mouth.
See, I have this day set you over the
nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and to pull down, to destroy and to
throw down, to build and to plant…I am ready to perform My word’’’ (vv. 4-12
NKJV). Does the job you’ve been called to do seem too big for you? On your own,
it is, but not when you include God! You’re not working alone; God is with you.
Whether it’s to pull down or build up, the One who called you will equip you,
empower you and give you success. He didn’t make a mistake when He picked you.
You say, ‘If only I had the education, talent and experience of so-and-so.’ If
God wanted them, He’d have chosen them, but He chose you. Just be yourself,
trust God, and everything will go well for you.
Parallel Verses: Job
11-14, Matt 5:1-12, Ps 10:12-18, Pr 1:17-19
Today’s
Prayer
Heavenly Father thank you for your
Word today. Lord, I come before you with a humble heart. Lord thank you for calling
and choosing me to be what you want me to be. Lord thank that you don’t doubt about
me even I am a sinner. Lord thank you for choosing me among billions of people
in order to serve you in your Kingdom. Lord strengthens me to believe your Word
always and not to depend myself and ability but to trust you in all aspects of
my life and that you are protecting and directing me and leading my steps
always as I serve you for your glory. In Jesus Name, Amen!
Prayer for Salvation
Lord I admit I am a sinner I repent of
all my sins and I receive you into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior
Amen. If you mean that prayer above from the bottom of your heart you are now
saved. It is God’s Word promise in John 3:16 that if you trust His Son Jesus
you will not die but you will have Eternal Life. Welcome to the family of God.
