Taking Risks: How Faith Helps You Step Out of Your Comfort Zone

The Comfort Zone Trap

What exactly is a ‘comfort zone’?

…It’s where the outcomes are predictable, 

…and the fear of failure seems distant. 

… It’s where you know what to expect, 

… you know how to handle it, 

…and you don’t have to stretch yourself too much. 

It’s comfy… 

BUT nothing new really grows there…

AND, staying comfortable can also mean staying stuck. 

👉🏽 Comfort can become a cage.👈🏾

Let’s be real—stepping out of your comfort zone can feel terrifying 😬

But let me ask you this:

What if the risk you’re afraid to take is the very step God is waiting for you to make?

If you’re yearning for more in your spiritual walk, relationships, or purpose, risk might be the vehicle God uses to grow you.

“Without faith it is impossible to please God.” — Hebrews 11:6

🏃🏾‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️ Faith doesn’t wait for certainty—it obeys God anyway. 

God doesn’t ask you to take risks recklessly—He asks you to trust Him radically. 

📌 When you walk by faith, fear loses its grip.

Here are Three Practical Ways to Take Faith-Filled Risks:

1. Pray first, then move

2. Start small, obey big 

3. Surround yourself with courageous, faith-filled friends who encourage risk and refuse to settle for fear. 

Here is a Prayer to Step Out in Faith:

🙏🏾 Lord, give me the courage to obey You even when it feels risky. 

Help me step out of comfort and into calling. 

I trust that when I move in faith, You move with power. 

In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾
