Speak Up Without Fear?

Speak Up Without Fear?

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 without fear!

Prayer Leads to Peace?

Prayer Leads to Peace?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those needing to let their requests be made known to God. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Anxiety disorders are real.

Scripture says there is hope.

Do not underestimate the power of prayer.

Paul, writing in Philippians 4:6-7 (ESV), says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Knowing the promise of God’s peace should be thrilling.

Take a moment and fall on your knees and pour out your heart.

Paul’s Wisdom Prayer?

Paul’s Wisdom Prayer?

Dear Lord, I pray for the wisdom and insight of believers, that they may grow in spiritual wisdom and greater knowledge of you. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Apostle Paul interceded for the church in Ephesus. He was deliberate. He wanted to see believers mature in spiritual wisdom and knowledge of the Almighty.

In Ephesians 1:17 (NIV) Paul says, “I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.”

Seek the wisdom and knowledge of God. Don’t stop. Pursue it through reading your Bible and through prayer.
