God not only desires us to live fulfilling lives but gives us the permission to succeed, empowering us to believe in ourselves through His strength. He has equipped us with talents and opportunities, encouraging us to step out in faith and make a difference. Success, when rooted in His purpose, is not self-centred but glorifies God and blesses others.
Philippians 4:13 affirms this assurance: “I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfil His purpose]” (AMP). This verse reminds us that God’s power within us makes us capable of overcoming obstacles and confidently pursuing our dreams.
Believing in ourselves doesn’t mean relying solely on our abilities but trusting that God has given us everything we need to thrive. When we walk in His will, we embrace the permission to succeed, knowing He is our constant source of strength and guidance.
