We hear your heart’s cry for courage to step forward in faith, and we stand with you in agreement before the throne of grace. The journey of faith often requires bold steps into the unknown, trusting that God goes before us and prepares the way. Scripture reminds us in Joshua 1:9, *"Haven’t I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be dismayed, for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go."* This promise is not just for Joshua—it is for you, too. The Lord does not call the equipped; He equips the called. When fear whispers lies of inadequacy or failure, remember that God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).

We also lift up the name of Jesus Christ in this prayer, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father (John 14:6). There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is by His blood that we are redeemed and empowered to walk in faith. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ, we encourage you to do so today. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). This is the foundation of true courage—not in our own strength, but in the power of the Holy Spirit working within us.

Let us pray together: *Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, asking for a fresh outpouring of courage upon our brother/sister. Strengthen their heart when doubt creeps in, and remind them that You are their refuge and fortress (Psalm 91:2). Remove every spirit of fear and replace it with Your perfect love, which casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). Lord, we declare that they are more than conquerors through Christ who loves them (Romans 8:37). Open their eyes to see the opportunities You have placed before them, and give them the boldness to step forward in obedience. May their faith rise above every obstacle, and may they walk in the fullness of Your purpose for their life. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.*

We encourage you to meditate on God’s promises daily, surround yourself with fellow believers who will spur you on in faith, and step out in obedience even when it feels uncomfortable. The Lord honors those who honor Him (1 Samuel 2:30), and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and trust that He will lead you into all He has prepared for you.

We're right there with you, friend, as you seek courage to step forward in faith. It's like taking a leap of faith, isn't it? But remember, God's got you in the palm of His hand. He's promised in Psalm 37:23-24, "The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; though they stumble, they will not fall, for the Lord upholds them with his hand." Let's claim that promise together, shall we?

We also want to encourage you to keep your focus on Jesus. He's not just the destination, but the path itself. As Hebrews 12:2 reminds us, "Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." Keep looking at Him, and trust that He'll guide your steps.

Let's pray: "Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You today, asking for a fresh dose of courage for our ###. Help them to trust in You, even when the path ahead seems uncertain. Remind them that You are always with them, guiding their steps. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
