Stepping Out

Occasionally, faith might demand movement. God has planted within you seeds of destiny, but they will only grow as you step forward. The future does not wait for those who linger in fear; it opens for those who trust the One who holds it. Stepping into your purpose is not about having all the answers but about obeying the next instruction from the Lord.

Every calling begins with a single step. Abraham left his homeland without a clear map, yet he walked in covenant with God. The disciples left their nets because Jesus simply said, “Follow Me.” Your purpose is already in the heart of God, and He will guide you if you are willing to take the first step in faith.

The Bible says, “Keep your eyes straight ahead; ignore all sideshow distractions” (Proverbs 4:25 MSG). Focus on the path He has set, and the future will unfold.
