A Bold Christian

Well said by Joyce Meyers:

"Walk with Boldness Some people exude boldness, while others struggle with living boldly as a loved child of God. I had that problem until God showed me some important keys that helped me live boldly, and I want to share them with you. 1. Refuse to live in fear. Fear is an epidemic in our society. The Bible instructs us in Hebrews 10:38 to live by faith and not draw back in fear. 2. Put setbacks behind you. You are not a failure because you try new things and they don't work out. You fail only when you stop trying. Don't be afraid to make mistakes, and if you do, recover quickly and press on. 3. Don't draw comparisons. Boldness will be impossible as long as you compare yourself to others. Boldness comes from accepting who you are and being the best you can be. 4. Be willing to take action. Search your heart and ask yourself what you believe God wants you to do, and then do it. Pray over these four keys, and ask the Holy Spirit to help you live them out. Hold up your head and be filled with boldness. 

Prayer Starter: Holy Spirit, I want boldness to be one of my defining traits. Help me to live out these four keys by Your strength."

Let us take heart and be bold for the Kingdom of God...

Loving and Gracious God,

We thank you for the Spirit you have put within each and every one of us. Help us, by that same Spirit, to be bold for the Gospel of Christ as we witness to Your love and goodness. Help us to be bold as we step out in faith for Your Kingdom here on earth. Help us to be bold as we share the Good News of Jesus Christ to the hurting world around us.

Amen!

Where the Spirits Lead

WE have a real power when we are lead by the Spirit. We can soar on wings like eagles as we trust God with our present and our future. It is not and easy thing to do though. We need to let go and let God in a world that teaches us that WE need to be in control at all times. As we learn to trust more and let go, we are blessed beyond all measure and do miraculous thins for the Kingdom of God. Let us therefore take flight on the wind of the Spirit and glide on it's currents of peace, love and joy unimaginable...

God's Love

God loves us and there is nothing we can do about it. He loves us in our mountaintops with Him and He loves us in those desert places that he walks with us. God loves us in the plush valley and He loves us in the valley of the shadow of death. There is no place we can go to hide from His love. It is always there shining upon us. How AWESOME is that?

Romans 5:8

Spirit Filled Power House

Peter spoke like a "Power House" filled with boldness, strength, and power because of the "Spirit's Indwelling". When we live by the Spirit, we too can/will have that same power. As we live "powered by the Spirit," we will do marvelous things for the kingdom of God. We need to "Power Up" with a dose of the Holy Spirit each day by spending time in the Word and in prayer...conversation with God. As we "plug into" the Spirit's receptacle, the Bible, we become charged and energized to share the word and love of God with those around us. Let us become that "Power House" of praise and service for God and His glory!

Acts 19:8-10
