Full of confidence

Has anyone given you an assignment, a challenge, or opportunity and you immediately responded....sure, I can do that....no problem!? Full of confidence you trek forward in your own strength. However, the end result is that we often fall flat on our face.

Paul tells the Corinthians, in 2 Corinthians 3:5, that "we are not adequate (sufficient, competent, capable, able) in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God."

He tells us in Philippians 4:13 that "I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me."
We must yield our talents, ambitions, strengths, training, education etc. to Him, and dying to our selves He will produce actions, assignments, challenges and opportunities that will in the end bring glory to Him (God) I Cor. 10:31 "Whether therefore you eat or drink, do ALL to the glory of God."

I want to offer again to send my Victory Call friends a set of the messages that Dr. Jimmy De Young has presented at America's KESWICK this past week on Bible prophecy. It is a timely series in light of all that is taking place right now in the Middle East. We ask that you consider a special summer gift to help us with our summer conference expenses. Respond to this email to let me know you want the CD's and be sure to include your mailing address. If you'd like to make your gift on-line, you can do so right from our home page: www.americaskeswick.org. Mark your gift "Prophecy Series." Your help at this time will be greatly appreciated.
