WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING

THE TITLE FOR TODAY’S EPISODE:  SHARING BOLD FAITH

How bold are you about your faith? Do you find it difficult to tell others about Jesus? Every Christian at times finds it difficult to share. Too many lives are hanging in the balance for us to shy away from our duties as children of God. In the days we are living, now more than ever the lost need for us to be bold. We do not have time to be timid. There are a lot of people searching for something, but they don’t know that what they are searching for is Jesus. Their soul is restless and they don’t know why. It is up to us to share with them the answer that they are seeking.

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

When we are faced with an opportunity to witness to someone, we have to be prepared. It takes time to study and know the word. First, every day, we must ask him to help us be a witness. Some take the intellectual approach; they memorize the right verses from the word. They practice just how they should use those verses. Unless you are talking to a prodigal, some are intimidated by the bible.

People need to connect with the one doing the witnessing. Just be honest and share your story. Explain how important God is in your life. Listen for the leading of his Spirit. Listen for feedback from the one you are sharing Jesus. The Holy Ghost will lead you to have the right words. People often just need to know someone cares. They need to know God cares.

We don’t have time to be as timid as a kitten. The harvest is ready; it is time for us to get busy. It is time for us to be bold.

Bold means to be daring, courageous and strong. As children of God, we have to be confident in our faith. Studying the word and learning how to share Jesus is something we all must learn. Striving to be bold witnesses is what our faith walk is all about.

Prov 28:1 The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.

The righteous are bold as a lion. This means we are courageous and fearless. The king of the jungle doesn’t fear any creature. It does not flee from the threat of its enemy. Our courage comes from our God. We want to make him proud by standing our ground. We must be firm in our convictions.

1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with humility and fear,

If we walk by faith and let our light shine, the world will know that we are different. We have hope that the world doesn’t have within them. This verse says we must be ready to give an answer to everyone that asks why we have hope. Sharing Jesus is not some complicated formula. Being bold enough to just simply tell someone what he has done for you is how we witness. Do not be discouraged if they don’t accept what you are saying. You have planted a seed, God will take it from there.

I Cor 3:6-9 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.

All of our hope comes from Jesus. Someone shared that hope with us when we had no hope. It is only fair that we share Jesus with the lost world.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
