Episode 280 - How to Have Godly Confidence with Lisa Freyschlag

“Confidence is not so much that God makes ME strong, but that I
become strong IN God, WITH God, and BECAUSE of God.” Lisa
Freyschlag, Moms in Prayer Colorado State Coordinator, shares
with us how different her life used to look when her confidence
wasn’t in God. Just wait until you hear what the Lord is doing in
and through Lisa now as she stands upon the solid rock of
confidence that is our God! We can walk in bold, faith-filled
confidence because of Who our God is!

ABOUT OUR GUEST


Lisa was first invited to a Moms in Prayer group in the 1990s and
grew in her prayer life as they faithfully followed the Four
Steps of Prayer. The group became her favorite hour every week as
she sometimes arrived in a panic, yet always left in peace. God’s
promises are true and when we bathe our children in His Word, our
hearts are refocused on the God Who is bigger than our problems!
In 2016, she began serving as the Moms in Prayer Colorado State
Coordinator. She and her husband have three kids and eight
grandchildren with a ninth on the way!


She says, “The Lord answered prayers for my children in such
unique and reassuring ways. When my children became adults, I
looked back at my prayer sheets and realized that He worked many
of the specific attributes I prayed for each child into the
fabric of their individual characters and personalities. I remain
awestruck and humbled by the power and privilege of praying God’s
word into their lives. Now it’s my privilege and honor to pray
for my new little loves—my grandchildren!”


SCRIPTURES


 but those who hope in the Lord


    will renew their strength.


They will soar on wings like eagles;


    they will run and not grow weary,


    they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31
NIV


Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His
compassions never fail. They are new every morning. Lamentations
3:22-23a NIV


I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Philippians 4:13 NKJV


for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from
being caught. Proverbs 3:26 ESV


For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God and
glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh.
Philippians 3:3 ESV


Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so
that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your
anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be
watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring
lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith,
knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by
your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have
suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you
to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm,
strengthen, and establish you. 1 Peter 5:6-10 ESV


 In the fear of the LORD one has strong confidence, and his
children will have a refuge. Proverbs 14:26 ESV
