THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

YOU DON’T REQUIRE THE APPROVAL OF OTHERS; YOU ALREADY HAVE GOD’S APPROVAL

Today’s teaching emphasizes not conforming to the WORLD’S expectations. To be the INDIVIDUAL God created you to be, it takes COURAGE to break FREE from the mold. This entails not dwelling on others’ OPINIONS. The prophet Jeremiah nearly missed OUT on God’s plan for him because he FELT too young, a sentiment shared by TIMOTHY, Paul’s SPIRITUAL son. In 1 Timothy 4:12, PAUL advises Timothy, “Let NO ONE look down on your youth.” Essentially, Paul’s message was, “Timothy, be who GOD created you to be.” The same message applies to you TODAY. You don’t REQUIRE the approval of others; you already have GOD’S approval. Stand up with boldness and CONFIDENCE and watch as God SHOWERS you with blessings and FAVOR beyond your wildest DREAMS.

Today’s Scripture:

“Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.”

Romans 12:2, NLT
