Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who want to be bold and to speak the word without fear. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Many cower when it comes to speaking in public. Yet, many have a powerful interpersonal witness. Whatever the circumstances, God uses his followers. For example, Apostle Paul shared the Gospel even though he was in chains.
He became well known, and God used his notoriety to spread the Gospel.
Paul, writing in Philippians 1:12-14 (ESV) tells us,
“I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel, so that it has become known throughout the whole imperial guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ. And most of the brothers, having become confident in the Lord by my imprisonment, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.”
You have heard about Paul. Now be emboldened like those brothers who heard about him.
Speak the word of God without fear!
