He Will Always Protect You

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.—Psalm 91:1 (NIV)

The Secret to Success

No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.—1 Corinthians 10:13 (NIV)
God has given you unique talents and gifts. Are you using them for His glory? Have you dedicated your abilities and your future to Him? When you focus your intention on serving God, you will always be successful.

God Will Help You

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.—2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)
When you feel frustrated, reflect on this verse. Your shortcomings can either defeat you or make you aware of God’s strength. Invite Him to turn your vulnerability into an opportunity to boost your faith and experience His power. His steadfast love will hold you up.
Heavenly Father, when doubt fills my mind, hold me close. Please fill me with peace and renewed hope! Your comforts will delight me.

A Prayer to Embrace Change

You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.—Ephesians 4:22–24 (NIV)
God has a plan for your life that includes growth and change. Yet many of us resist and fear anything different—even when it’s a move toward something better. God pushes us forward into new and sometimes uncomfortable situations. Be open to opportunity, and place God’s plan before yours.
Heavenly Father, I will seek Your will and Your ways for my life.

God Is All You Need

Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.”—Luke 12:15 (NIV)
True richness comes from your relationship with God. God wants you to be content not through belongings, but in Him. When you feel envious of others and wish you had what they have, focus on the blessings in your life. God is everything you’ll ever need!
Heavenly Father, give me a heart of gratitude that recognizes that You bless me beyond measure.

God sent His only Son to give us the gift of salvation. Because of His great love, you do not have to dwell on your past mistakes and failures. His passion is bigger than the pain of your sins. He will heal your broken pieces and replace them with His peace.

Release Your Fear of Failure

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.—2 Corinthians 4:16–17 (NIV)  
Norman Vincent Peale said, “Fear can infect us early in life until eventually it cuts a deep groove of apprehension in all our thinking. To counteract it, let faith, hope and courage enter your thinking. Fear is strong, but faith is stronger yet.” God wants you to let go of your desire to be perfect. Instead, He desires that you learn from your mistakes and work toward being better every day. Striving for perfection will not make you great, but not giving up—will!  
Lord, help me release my fear of failure and go boldly forward.
