Bolder Together
Bolder Together
Joshua 1:5 (NIV)
“No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
God has a purpose and plan for your life. And He speaks a word of boldness toward you today—a word of encouragement, and solidarity, and power. As He did with Joshua, He speaks a word of “presence” to you today. He never leaves. He never forsakes. And He intends to embolden your courage and conviction by the power of His uncompromising presence.
We are bolder together. We can achieve more in solidarity than we ever could alone. Think about a collective effort within your community that made a significant impact. When we pool our resources, talents, and experience, when we partner together in faith, what results is a greater outcome than individual efforts could have achieved.
In community, we find we are bolder together—strengthened in our unity. We support each other in our endeavors, celebrate victories together, and lift each other up in times of need. As we harness that collective boldness, inspired by God’s presence among us (Matthew 18:20), let’s continue to pursue God’s purposes boldly in faith. Our unity reflects God’s glory and demonstrates His transformative power to the world.
Reflect on a time when being part of a community or group enabled you to accomplish something you couldn’t have done alone. How did the collective effort and unity enhance your confidence and effectiveness in that situation? What did this experience teach you about the power of working together under God’s guidance?
Consider how God’s promise of His unwavering presence can impact your approach to challenges and goals. How does knowing that God will never leave you or forsake you influence your courage and conviction in pursuing His purposes, both individually and within your community?
Think about an area in your life where you could use more support or boldness. How can you engage with your community to harness collective strength and encouragement? What steps can you take to foster a deeper sense of solidarity and mutual support as you work towards your goals and face challenges?
