Have you ever felt God nudging you to try something new, but you long for certainty about what will happen? Your uncertainty becomes louder than the voice reminding you of His power in you.

Scripture shows us that we do have certainty, but it doesn’t come from knowing outcomes. The certainty we have is in our relationship with God:

“His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness” (2 Peter 1:3).

As I've read this verse, I've noticed it doesn't say God will give us everything we need. It says He has given. If we are His children by faith, these gifts are already available to us, and God intends for us to use them.

We can move forward with confidence — not because we are guaranteed a certain response from others but because God goes with us. His Spirit helps us. Peter goes on to say that because of the promise in today's key verse, we are to “work hard to prove that [we] really are among those God has called and chosen” (2 Peter 1:10, NLT).

When we refuse to move forward, we do the opposite of what this verse tells us. But as we trust God with our expectations, the effect may surprise us — we also trust our ability to hear His voice more.
