Day 14: Boldly Follow God’s Call

Focus Scripture:
“Then Elijah said to the people, ‘If the Lord is God, follow Him.’” – 1 Kings 18:21

Devotional:
Elijah was a man who trusted God completely and followed His lead without fear. One day, he stood in front of a large crowd and did something really bold. He declared, “If the Lord is God, follow Him.” Elijah wasn’t afraid to be “about that life.” He wasn’t scared to speak up and take a stand for God, even when it was difficult.

Guess what? Neither should you be scared. You are called to follow God’s call—no matter what. Sometimes God’s call might feel big and scary, like speaking in front of others or making a big decision. Other times, it could be something small, like helping a friend or showing kindness. But no matter how big or small, God is asking you to be brave and follow Him. When you follow God, He leads you to the best places and helps you become the person He made you to be.

Just like Elijah, you can be brave and step boldly into whatever God is calling you to do!

Today's Confession:
I will boldly follow God’s call, no matter what it is. I trust that He is leading me to great things, and I am ready to follow Him wherever He leads.
