We're living in a time where the culture is so vocal about their hate for our God! Which means we need to be all the more bold about our love and faith in Him! We have a Great Commission already, and it's time we start doing more of it.
Proverbs 28:1
"The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion."
What does this verse mean? Here's some commentary on it:
The wicked person is troubled by guilt and fear, which makes them paranoid, constantly looking over their shoulder. They flee from rumors and imagine threats because their own wrongdoings create an internal state of panic. Unlike the righteous, the wicked have no help from God, only the inevitable consequences of their own actions.
The righteous on the other hand, are known by their courage and confidence, being as bold as a lion because their actions are in line with God's will and they have a deep trust in God's strength, provision and protection.
Are you as bold as a lion? Or does your courage need some encouragement?
Preparation
From a young age, I learned very quickly what it meant to stand bold for my faith. My mom started memorizing scriptures with me when I was 4 years old, and started teaching me about faith, and how to use my faith. I started going out street witnessing with her when I was 11 years old. At 17 years old, I would go with her every Saturday night from midnight to 5am in Hollywood to minister to prostitutes, transgenders, gays and runaways. So, I learned how to talk to strangers about Jesus, who were from all different walks of life.
When I was in high school, I had a real confidence in Christ. I saw Him use me in miraculous ways as I prayed for fellow classmates and even my teachers.
But it does not mean that I didn't come up against opposition. I learned how to stand for Christ, even if that meant I stand alone.
B.O.L.D.
I know for a lot of people it can be scary to share your faith, especially if you haven't done it before. But I want to share with you this short video teaching, giving you some ways to be bold in your faith. I hope you will find it useful and helpful.
So what now?
For more teaching on faith, here is a Bible study you can dive into. As your faith increases, your confidence increases. And that will enable you to be more courageous and bolder. Because in this hour, we need Courageous Christians! ⚔🛡
