Boldly Proclaim!

Boldly Proclaim!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who are willing to open their mouth boldly to proclaim the Gospel. In Jesus’ name, amen.

What does it mean to be bold? Synonyms include: brave, daring, and courageous. Why is boldness in spiritual matters so important? The most common reasons are probably fear of rejection and dislike of confrontation.

Pray for boldness before sharing. Why? God can give you confidence and exactly the right words to say. Your tone of voice and the words you use may fit perfectly into God’s plan.

Apostle Paul was held in chains when he wrote Ephesians 6:18-20 (ESV):

“…To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.”

Boldly proclaim the Good News. What you share may be the beginning of another person’s journey to faith. Just casually mention what Jesus has done in your life. Your words may not impact them now, but years later they may think back and remember what you said.

What Can Man Do To Me?

What Can Man Do To Me?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who when faced with fear respond, “What can man do to me?” In Jesus’ name, amen.

Believers have the potential to be bold. Why are so many so timid?

In Psalm 56:10-13, the psalmist’s fears are under control because of his trust in God. He says that he will render thank offerings:

“In God, whose word I praise,
in the Lord, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

I must perform my vows to you, O God;
I will render thank offerings to you.
For you have delivered my soul from death,
yes, my feet from falling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life.”

Think about David’s relationship with God. David credits God with delivering his soul from death. Do you see God has having done the same for you in that he provides eternal life for all those who believe? Consider John 3:16. Is it time for you to become more bold in praising God and sharing the Good News with others? Will you let God handle your fears? Trust him.
