“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” – Joshua 1:9 (NIV)

Creativity is a brave act. When we choose to create, we are putting ourselves out there, expressing our thoughts, ideas, and emotions. This kind of vulnerability takes courage, but God promises to be with us in every step. With Him as our guide, we find the strength to create boldly and the resilience to keep going when we encounter challenges.

God’s call to “be strong and courageous” is a reminder that creativity isn’t just about talent; it’s about trusting Him to be with us in every idea, every risk, and every project. When we create, we’re partnering with God, and His strength equips us to bring our visions to life.

In what ways can you step forward boldly with your creative gifts, trusting that God will strengthen you?
