Don’t Be Afraid

Scripture: Acts 18:9 One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent.

Observation: Why are we so afraid to speak out in the name of Christ? I believe it is more embarrassment than anything else and what a shame it is to be to embarrassed of our Lord and Savior. God has given us one directive and that is to spread the Gospel and He assures us that He is with us and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Application: I need to speak boldly to others about my Lord and Savior so others may hear the good news and not perish but have eternal life. Pray each day for God’s guidance and direction on what would please Him and not be afraid to approach others in his name.

Prayer: My Lord and my God, direct me each day to be bold and to speak out in your name. May I touch the heart of others and help open their eyes to your love and spread the gospel. I belong to you and desire to please you, help direct my path.
