He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” – Mark 4:40 (NIV)
Have you noticed how easy it is to have faith when things are going good? If everything in your life is easy it’s so easy to be thankful and happy. However, when things are difficult, you really get to see what you really trust in. The disciples were in the middle of a storm. And when things got scary and they weren’t comfortable they began to cry out in fear. Jesus asked them something amazing, He asked why were they still afraid. Today’s Challenge: Remember Jesus is With You Jesus thought that they should not be fearful. After all, He was right there with them in the boat. Didn’t they know that when He was with them, they didn’t need to be afraid? Lots of times, we’re guilty just like the disciples of being afraid. We’ve got Jesus with us and in us all the time. Yet too often we forget all about Him. We go through the storms of life afraid simply because we didn’t realize that Jesus was right there with us. So today, if you’re going through something tough, be encouraged. Jesus is with you. He’s helping you through the things that you face and you will come out on the other side. Don’t fear, simply trust in Him! Challenge 1 – Practice Faith in the Midst of Fear - So today, choose to practice faith in God. Choose to believe that God can and will take care of you. Determine not to let fear rule your life. Even when fear shouts loud, choose to listen to faith. Challenge 2 – To defeat fear, keep your focus on God. - When our focus becomes anything other than God, we can become fearful. Challenge 3 – Fix your focus on God. - If fear has been an issue in your life, determine to focus on God. Fixing your focus on God will bring you freedom from fear. Challenge 4 – Put Your Trust In God - Choose to put your trust in God. Look to Him to take care of you. Don’t spend your energy trying to do everything in your strength. Instead, lean on God. Challenge 5 – Remember Jesus is With You - We’ve got Jesus with us and in us all the time. Yet too often we forget all about Him. We go through the storms of life afraid simply because we didn’t realize that Jesus was right there with us. http://studentdevos.com/
