Here’s a peek inside:
“I can’t do it all! I am not cut out to be a wife, a mom, a daughter, a speaker, a writer and all the other things God has called me to.” I had barely opened my eyes, yet I already felt beat up by feelings of inadequacy. My thoughts were against me, and my feelings were too. About that time, my radio alarm came on and my thoughts were interrupted by Twila Paris. With confident assurance, she sang truth to my soul, telling me it was not a time for fear, but a time for faith and determination. She challenged me not to lose my vision or be carried away by my emotions, but to hold on to all that I had hidden in my heart, and all I believed to be true. Then she reminded me of the most important truth of all: God is in control.1 As my thoughts aligned with God’s truth, my whole perspective changed. I went from feeling afraid to feeling determined, from feeling out of control to knowing God is in control.
Every day we have a choice – to either to let doubt beat us up or to let God’s truth build us up.
In the same way a radio has AM and FM frequencies, our thoughts do too. They are either AM (against me) or FM (for me) thoughts. Honestly, we are often our worst critics and have a lot of AM thoughts. And if our thoughts are against us, our feelings will be too. The next time you get feelings of inadequacy, stop and identify what you are thinking that is making you feel that way. Then compare your thoughts to God’s thoughts found in the Bible. Do they match? If not, find a promise in God’s Word to replace the lie that has filled your heart with doubt and start thinking about that promise. Even say it out loud and pray the words, asking God to make them true for you in that moment.
For instance, when doubt comes against you, telling you that you’re weak and all alone, focus on the truth that God is for you! You can be strong and courageous because the Lord your God is with you. He promises to never leave you nor forsake you. (Deuteronomy 31:6, NIV)
Then why not turn that truth into a prayer – claiming how much God is for you: God I’m so thankful You are for me. Because You are for me and with me, I can be strong and courageous in this situation. You promise You will never leave me nor forsake me. I’m choosing to think Your words that are for me instead of listening to the doubts that so easily come against me. You have full access to God’s power and His promises to live with a confident heart. But it won’t just happen because it’s possible. You have to take action! Just like I tuned into a Christian music station the night before, let’s be intentional about tuning our thoughts into God’s thoughts toward us, today and every day! Lord, help me remember today that You are with me to fight for me against my enemies of insecurity and feelings of inadequacy. In all these things, I am more than a conqueror through Him who loves me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
When I say: Everything and everyone is against me. God says: I am for you! “What, then, shall [you] say in response to these things? If God is for [you], who can be against [you]?” Romans 8:31 (NIV)

I enjoy getting your daily emails and devotions. You know God is speaking to you when they hit you on days when what you are talking about is exactly what your going through. You all do a wonderful job, love the books, and everything that goes along with them. I enjoy my job, but a job doing what you all are doing for the kingdom of God should reap you lots of rewards and be very gratifying.
Love, Love, Love the book! I would love to receive a copy to share with a friend. 🙂
A Confident Heart changed my life. I would love to reinforce the truths I learned from the book through the new devotional.
This book sounds exceptional, but all of your books are wonderful. I love the way that you write them to touch each and everyone in whatever situation they are in. You are so positive and portray that in all of your books. I would love to win this book and would share the other one with my Sister-in-Law. She has such a strong faith and has helped me so much in my path to God. My brother (her husband) was in a tragic accident 3 years ago and broke his neck. He was only 63 years old and it was way too soon for him to be with God, but she has shown me how to lean on God and he will lead us through anything this world takes us through. She is such an inspiration and I love her so me. It would be an honor to share your book with her. Thank you for all you do and how you spread God’s word to millions on this earh.
Read the book and was greatly blessed. Would love to get a copy of the devotional for myself and a friend. Thanks for sharing with us.
I love the book; so I’m “confident” that the devotional will be just as amazing! I wanna win! God bless you abundantly Renee for letting the Lord speak through you!
I would like to win the devotional for my daughter and I. She lives almost 8 hours away from me. She got me started on the OBS and I love it. I have learned so much. I have so much self doubt, but this book is really helping me overcome some of my issues with doubt. Thank you.
I could use more of God’s encouragement on a daily basis and I’d love to share with my Daugher in law. Thank you.
I would love to read this book/devotional. I tend to let the things I see as my responsibility become my own burden that weigh me down instead of taking it to God first thing and asking him to walk alongside me. I see this book as a source of encouragement to keep me focused on God’s path instead of letting the worries of the world drag me down.
I live in a community of hurting ladies. Many are unwed moms with children who may not know who daddy
is . I am here to make a difference . I believe this devotional will help one hurting lady to move on to discover she is of value and can be confident because sheis the daughter of the LORD Most High.
Thanks,
Mia Herne .
I am thrilled to see a devotional come out. I am looking forward to diving in.
I have been going through a hard time lately and am trying to have faith in the Lord that he will see me through, I have been active in church and have been a Christian many years, but have an empty heart right now. I am hoping to build my confidence by reading your devotional. God Bless you for the messages you are able to write for others to be blessed. 🙂
This seems like a book that can help me. I have struggled with anxiety and depression since I left an abusive relationship. Confidence will not only help me, but also my children and employees. Thank-you!
I am on a journey with God to discover His truths and abolish all of the fears and anxieties that have controlled my life for too long. I would love to win this devotional book and share this amazing journey with a friend. This book could not have come at a better time for me!
I am excited to learn more about this devotional. I am hoping I win it. If not, I will purchase one for my devotional. Every woman should own one of these. Whether happy or facing a divorce, or a rebelious child or a bad relationship with a friend, parent or another family memeber, this is the devotional that will help a woman own and initiate the peace talks and gain victory over the enemy.
I believe this book would be a blessing to me right now. I need help, I am real hard on myself, not much love for me!

I am excited to read your new book. I am going through a lot of life changes and learning how to fully connect with Jesus. I know your lessons and devotions will truly help me.
Hello Ashley,
The scary thing is that you are not alone. Many are going through a lot of life changes, and when my friends visited my website, http;//www.wouldyouloveme.com/media, they reported being happier than ever. You can also visit amazon.com to read the synopsis of my book to gain insight on how to start being happy today.
I wish you happiness, peace, and most of all, love!

This site is such a blessing to me and to others that I share information with. Thank you and looking forward to learning even more with the bible study. I share with others who don’t have computers as a small group setting for women. I share with some co-workers as well. Thanks to all of you at Pro 31. You are making a difference for all of us.
I logged in after receiving the email to win this devotional. Then I saw where we were asked to share our story why we would benefit from winning it. Well, let me tell you, even though I am going through my own major struggles, I truly see I could have it so much worse! Even though I have recently lost my job after working in the medical profession for 15+ years with a college age son & a 16 year old daughter to take care of, at least I still have them! Although my dad & father-in-law both battled cancer at the same time this past year & we lost my father-in-law, we still have my daddy, even with residual problems from treatments. I fight battles daily wondering “Why me?” “Why us?” “Why now?” I am thankful after reading some of these other posts that I am still able to even ask the questions. Lord forgive me & place me where I may be used!
Hello Stacey,
WoW! You are already a strong women and an inspiration!
I wish you more peace, happiness and love as you continue to praise God for what you have.
